With What’s in an Imprint?, Tye Landels concludes his series Georeferencing the Early Modern Book Trade by presenting the prototypes of his methods for building bibliographic geodata databases of early modern texts. In the process, he highlights the exceptional data mining work of the Shakeosphere team and demonstrates the potential benefits of scholarly collaboration between digital projects. Landels begins the post by describing David Eichmann and Blaine Greteman’s groundbreaking data mining methods for extracting geographic data points form the English Short Title Catalogue for the Shakeosphere project. Eichmann and Greteman generously shared their data with Landels and MoEML and, from this information, Landels created a series of XSLT-generated TEI-XML databases for five categories of bibliographic data extracted from the ESTC: sources, identified stationers, identified locations, relations between locations, and relations between stationers and location. As Landels explains, the fifth database provides a particularly rich resource for geodata about early modern print activities and allows early modern scholars and print historians to make large-scale queries about locations of print activity that have hitherto been difficult to compile. See Landels’ prototype methods and read more about his processes here.
