	The Database of Byzantine Book Epigrams (DBBE) is an ongoing project that makes available both textual and contextual data of book epigrams - also known as “metrical paratexts” - from medieval Greek manuscripts dating up to the fifteenth century. Book epigrams are defined as poems in and on books: they have as subject the very manuscript in which they are found, elaborating on its production, contents and use.		:The Database of Byzantine Book Epigrams (DBBE) is an ongoing project that makes available both textual and contextual data of book epigrams - also known as “metrical paratexts” - from medieval Greek manuscripts dating up to the fifteenth century. Book epigrams are defined as poems in and on books: they have as subject the very manuscript in which they are found, elaborating on its production, contents and use.

	The database distinguishes between two kinds of textual material, namely occurrences and types. Occurrences are book epigrams exactly as they occur in one specific manuscript. The data collected is largely the result of careful manuscript consultation, either in situ or based on (digital) reproductions, conducted by the DBBE team. The remainder is compiled from descriptive catalogues and other relevant publications. Individual verses found in multiple occurrences are linked together by means of dedicated Verse variants pages.		:The database distinguishes between two kinds of textual material, namely occurrences and types.

	Types are book epigrams independently of how exactly they occur in the manuscripts, often (though not always) grouping several occurrences that have an identical or at least very similar text. If available, the text of a type is drawn from a critical edition. If not, it is a normalised version of a single representative occurrence.		:Types are book epigrams independently of how exactly they occur in the manuscripts, often (though not always) grouping several occurrences that have an identical or at least very similar text.
