Description
From the project website (accessed 2012-07-27):


 * The Tesserae project aims to provide a flexible and robust web interface for exploring intertextual parallels. Select two poems below to see a list of lines sharing two or more words (regardless of inflectional changes).

In July 2012 the sample texts allowed comparison of classical Latin poets only but in September 2017 the authors to be compared include Latin and Greek, classical and Late Antiquity authors, poetry and prosee.
