An Experiment on Plato’s Gorgias as an Introduction to Textometry

Abstract

Current implementations of Digital Humanities for classical studies are ofteneither rich digital editions, with much effort devoted to display a pleasantlayout and to offer efficient navigation paths; or indexed corpora ordatabases with querying facilities, for which the focus is on searchingfunctionalities and not on primary text visualization and reading. However,through the example of the textometric approach (presented in section 1.1)that is implemented in TXM open-source software (1.2), we would like toshow that complex textual representation and computational analysis can beboth taken into consideration into a unique digital framework (1.3). In orderto show that such a method can offer great possibilities for researchers in theClassics field, we will give a more complete presentation of the methodologyapplied to Plato’s Gorgias (section 2 and 3).
