# Odyssey Greek text notice

The Greek text in `data/books/*.json` is derived from the Perseus Digital Library’s
[`canonical-greekLit`](https://github.com/PerseusDL/canonical-greekLit) repository:

- Homer, *The Odyssey*, ed. A. T. Murray, London: William Heinemann; New York:
  G. P. Putnam’s Sons, 1919.
- CTS URN: `urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0012.tlg002.perseus-grc2`
- Source file: `data/tlg0012/tlg002/tlg0012.tlg002.perseus-grc2.xml`
- Repository license: [Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/)

Modifications: TEI/XML markup was removed, whitespace was normalized, and verse and
paragraph markers were represented as JavaScript data for web display.

Murray’s Greek textual notes and English explanatory notes are being transcribed from
the public-domain 1919 facing-page edition: [Volume I](https://archive.org/details/odyssey01home)
and [Volume II](https://archive.org/details/odysseywithengli02home). Reviewed transcriptions
in `content/homer/odyssey/notes/murray-1919/transcriptions/` are aligned to the displayed
Greek and Murray translation during the build. Coverage is incremental and is recorded
in `data/homer/odyssey/notes/murray-1919/index.json`.

The website’s original HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are separate from the licensed textual
dataset.

Primary word analyses in `data/analysis/*.json` are exact token matches from the
[Ancient Greek Dependency Treebank 2.1](https://github.com/PerseusDL/treebank_data),
released under [CC BY-SA 3.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/).
Because that treebank annotates the `grc1` edition while this reader displays `grc2`,
the build aligns tokens without silently transferring analyses across spelling or
edition differences; its full coverage report is `data/alignment-report.json`.
Unmatched words and alternative analyses come from the
[Perseus Greek Morphology Tool](https://morph.perseus.org/) passage output. The
tool credits Giuseppe Celano for morphological analysis and lemmatization,
Eldarion for development, and the Humboldt Chair of Digital Humanities at the
University of Leipzig for support.

Homer-specific meanings are copied only from explicit `<gloss>` fields in Georg
Autenrieth’s *A Homeric Dictionary for Schools and Colleges*, translated by Robert P.
Keep (1891), using the Perseus electronic transcription. General concise senses are
copied as structured gloss fields from the
[Kaikki.org Ancient Greek Wiktextract dataset](https://kaikki.org/dictionary/Ancient%20Greek/index.html),
derived from English Wiktionary under CC BY-SA 4.0.

Reviewed passage-specific glosses, when present, originate in
`annotations/contextual-glosses.json` and are clearly distinguished from dictionary
meanings. Exact source revisions, URLs, access dates, and SHA-256 checksums are recorded
in `sources.lock.json`.
