  • Greek, Latin and Augmented Intelligence

    Open AccessGregory Crane, Alison Babeu et al.ARTICLEThe Classical Review2025

    This Profile looks at two technologies that were developed to make source texts in the original Greek, Latin and, indeed, any language directly accessible to audiences who have not yet studied – and may never study – the language itself: (1) translations aligned at the word and phrase level with the original text and (2) rich linguistic annotations explaining the part of speech, regularised dictionary form and syntactic function of each word in a…

  • Part of Speech Tagging for Ancient Greek

    Open AccessGiuseppe G A Celano, Gregory Crane et al.ARTICLEOpen Linguistics2016

    In this article we report the results for five POS taggers, i.e., the Mate tagger, the Hunpos tagger, RFTagger, theOpenNLP tagger, andNLTKUnigramtagger, tested on the data of the Ancient Greek Dependency Treebank. This is done in order to find the most efficient POS tagger to use for pre-annotation of new treebank data. A corrected 1-run 10-fold cross validation t test shows that the Mate tagger outperforms all the other taggers, with an accuracy…

  • Greco-Roman Studies in a Digital Age

    Open AccessGregory CraneARTICLEDaedalus2016

    What is the audience for the work that we professional researchers conduct on Greco-Roman culture? If the public outside academia does not have access to up-to-date data about the Greco-Roman world, whose problem is it? Frequently heard remarks, observed practices, and published survey results indicate most of us still assume that only specialists and revenue-generating students really matter. If we specialists do not believe that we have a prima…

  • ePhilology

    Open AccessGregory Crane, David Bamman et al.OTHERA Companion to Digital Literary…2013

    This chapter suggests directions in which an ePhilology may evolve. It makes two fundamental arguments. First, it assumes that the first generation of digital technology has only laid the groundwork for substantive change in classics and the humanities. Second, it advances arguments about what form an optimal digital future should assume. While Greek and Latin provide the focus for the chapter, the arguments apply in various ways to many areas wi…

  • Historical Relevance Feedback Detection by Text Re-use Networks

    Marco Büchler, Gregory Crane et al.ARTICLELeonardo2013

    Text re-use has been in the humanist's interest for centuries. Collecting parallel texts implies giving a certain information, e.g. a moral statement or report on wars and conflicts, a kind of witness. The more independent parallel texts are collected, the more feasible the information is. The contribution reported here is on automatic detection of text re-use and the usage of a text re-use network to derive a Cultural Heritage Aware PageRank tec…

  • The Annotation Guidelines of the Latin Dependency Treebank and Index Thomisticus Treebank

    Open AccessDavid Bamman, Marco Passarotti et al.CONFERENCEProceedings of the Language…2008

    The paper describes the treatment of some specific syntactic constructions in two treebanks of Latin according to a common set of annotation guidelines. Both projects work within the theoretical framework of Dependency Grammar, which has been demonstrated to be an especially appropriate framework for the representation of languages with a moderately free word order, where the linear order of constituents is broken up with elements of other consti…

  • Thucydides and the Ancient Simplicity

  • New Technologies for Reading

  • The Blinded Eye

    James Romm, Gregory CraneARTICLEThe Classical World1998Cited by: 15

    Thucydides, the patron saint of Realpolitik, continues to be read in many fields outside of classics. Why did his History succeed in setting the pattern for future scholars where Hereodotus's earlier Histories failed? In this fascinating study of the construction of intellectual authority, Gregory Crane argues that Thucydides was successful for two reasons. First, he refined the language of administration: Who was in charge? How much money was sp…

  • Thucydides and the Ancient Simplicity

    Gregory CraneBOOKThucydides and the Ancient…1998Cited by: 25

    Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian War is the earliest surviving realist text in the European tradition. As an account of the Peloponnesian War, it is famous both as an analysis of power politics and as a classic of political realism. From the opening speeches, Thucydides' Athenians emerge as a new and frightening source of power, motivated by self-interest and oblivious to the rules and shared values under which the Greeks had operated for…
