Wittgenstein MS101 from September 1914 (2008)

«Wittgenstein MS101 from September 1914» was initiated in 2001 as part of the international project Using XML to generate research tools for Wittgenstein scholars by collaborative groupwork (2001-2004). A part of Wittgenstein Nachlass item MS101, containing philosophical and personal remarks from September 1914, was converted to XML with reference to the TEI Guidelines. A series of XSL stylesheets were prepared for output in XHTML and PDF. Particular attention was given to how MS101 could be hyperlinked to WAB external resources, and how the complexity of these links could be controlled and filtered according to the interests of the user. The final outcomes illustrate how output files can be generated dynamically on demand according to user preferences. Consequently, along with the MS101 resource WAB offered already in 2004 an interface for User-controlled text filtering. The project was made possible through an agreement with the Wittgenstein Trustees, Oxford University Press and Trinity College Library (2003) which is gratefully acknowledged.

In the course of WAB's further work on migrating its machine-readable version of the Wittgenstein Nachlass, incl. MS 101, from MECS-WIT to XML-TEI markup, additional or revised resources were produced.
