If you are interested to add a collection to the databse, please do get in touch.
Which data do we need?
The data model of the Clavis canonum database is the result of the fairly long history of the project. The following fields are needed:
- Key: The first two letters are the siglum of the respective collection, followed by a running number. If collections are divided into books, use a digit to separate book number and canon number (BU02.001 = first canon in book two of Bruchard's Liber decretorum), if not, not (TC001 = canon 11 in TC). One can also have further subdivisions (GR1.032.06.001 = first canon in Gratian, D.32 c.6)
- Coll. = Short name of the collection
- Location: Folio, page, or column the beginning of the individual canon is found. Where possible, we add a page-specific link to the digital image of the page in question. If such links are available, please add them in a separate column.
- Author group: Siglum of the relevant author group, based on the inscription (whether or not this information is factually correct). Note that popes of the same name are but one author group (1GR = all canons attributed to a Pope Gregory). See the list of all sigla.
- Inscription: The inscription as found in the base manuscript/print.
- Incipit: The first six words of a canon
- Explicit: The last three words
If you cannot provide data for one or more of these fields, just leave them empty. If you are uncertain about the author group in particular, please do contact us, we are happy to help.
How to transmit the data
The easiest way is to put this data in a Google spreadsheet and insert the link in the relevant article.
For a model, see the spreadsheet we prepared when entering Friedberg's edition into the database: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lJ8Ht66ka7PuKNwQSZhVMCsIPkC1lXCRiwowi20qsK0/edit#gid=0
Standardisation of the Latin
In general, as the database is single-manuscript based, it is best to follow the manuscript (or edition) in question. Linda Fowler-Magerl very moderately standardised the Latin of the collections she transcribed.
