Homer Multitext 2018d Data Release

We are pleased to announce the 2018d release of Homer Multitext data. This is the fourth release of 2018. With each release, we try to improve our automated validation and machine-assisted verification, and to improve integration of this data through refinements to the data models.

This is the work of over 170 editors.

A guide to understanding HomerMultitext data is online.

All current data is on the project’s GitHub site. The current release, 2018d, is in the releases-cex subdirectory.

The work of the Homer Multitext is focused on scholarly data. At the same time, we are interested in providing useful access to this data in as many ways as possible. With the 2018d release, we are also pleased to provide these new tools:

• An online, integrated web applicatation for exploring HMT data.
• A service that can deliver data in JSON format, as responses to http requests.
• A downloadable, double-clickable web application preconfigured for reading and exploring the textual content of the HMT 2018d release.
