Adding first cross references. #44
Conversation
This adds a cross-reference.xml document, several <ref> tags, and the very first example of a cross reference: "agenbite of inwit".

Wonderful! Going to get cracking myself too. I wonder if there’s any way to mass import the findings in William M. Schutte’s Index of Recurrent Elements in James Joyce’s Ulysses (1982)? I’ll track down a copy and take a look. |

Great idea. If you can't find a copy, let me know, and I'll see if I can scan the copy we have in our library. I've also been thinking about ways of computationally identifying recurring phrases. The best I can come up with is, make a formula adding the sum of probabilities of each word, the number of words, and the number of times the n-gram repeats. |

I just checked and we have a copy in my library – though thanks for offering. I can’t remember what edition Schutte cues his elements to (the JJQ episode-by-episode version used the 1934 and 1961 editions), but I bet there’s a way to grab all his citations and computationally transform them into 1984 episode.line numbers. Maybe that could form the basis for more speedily getting his recurrences into our data as |

This follows the idea in #39, which adds
<ref>tags in the text andgroups them using a
<link>tag incross-references.xml, with thesuggestion in #42, of enumerating the
<ref>tags using the nearest<lb>tag.Some additional "header"/padding tags may need to go in
cross-references.xml,but for now it's just a sequence of
<link>tags wrapped in a<TEI>tag.This also demonstrates the addition of a
<note>(withtargetattribute)to expand on and explain the cross-reference.
