Description
An experimental digital scholarly edition of the grammatical works, by Ursus from Benevento and others, included in a IX century medieval Latin manuscript from the Bibliotheca Casanatensis (Casanatensis 1086). The prototype is based on the same methodological principles of the previous (incomplete) Vespa Project:


 * Text should be encoded at different layers, including (in the case of this edition) the graphic layer (graphemes, paragraphematic signs etc.), the alphabetic layer (alphabetic letters) and the linguistic layer (words);
 * A complete list of the signs identified by the philologist in the manuscript (in Orlandi's words a "table of signs") should be provided for each manuscript and be computed by the software generating the edition.
