The correspondence of Christofforo Suriano

In this repo we develop a website for the correspondence of Christofforo Suriano.

We proceed as follows:

1. There are incoming transcriptions in Word
2. They are converted to TEI
3. The TEI is converted to Text-Fabric
4. By means of Text-Fabric we generate a set of text fragments and annotations and import it into the systems of TeamText: AnnoRepo and TextRepo
5. By means of Broccoli we make a configuration for a website
6. Finally, TextAnnoViz displays the letters on the website, fed by the contents of AnnoRepo, TextRepo, Broccoli

There is a large degree of isomorphism between the Text-Fabric data and the final website data.

Researchers can use Text-Fabric to download the letters to their computer and browse and search them in a local browser. Or they can access them by means of Python programs and Jupyter notebooks.

We'll provide a set of tutorials for that.
