Chant Hypertexts: A Web Resource for Medieval Chants

Abstract

Dr. Luisa Nardini of the Butler School is creating a companion website to her forthcoming book Chant Hypertexts on medieval Italian liturgical chants. My project has focused on using Caspio to create the database of chants which underlies the site. I have also created a prototype of the site’s visual portion, which presents digitized chant manuscripts, modern transcriptions, and annotated Latin texts in Digital Mappa. Following this project, users can now search the full repository of chants by a number of parameters and view all currently available images and texts.
