\n
<\/div>\n
Framework<\/span><\/p>\n

Shared conceptual model<\/h4>\n

Classicists and philosophers jointly define the target domain of cognition and develop the source-target scene and subframe model used in annotation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/div>\n
Annotation<\/span><\/p>\n

Manual philological coding<\/h4>\n

Team members identify metaphorical passages, segment the text, define scenes and subframes, and compare annotation decisions in order to make interpretive work auditable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/div>\n
Validation<\/span><\/p>\n

Discussion and reconciliation<\/h4>\n

Disagreements are reviewed and used to refine the annotation guidelines, strengthening consistency without hiding the interpretive nature of the work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/div>\n
Observatory<\/span><\/p>\n

Public-facing research infrastructure<\/h4>\n

The corpus, validation routines, and interface are designed to let users inspect Plutarchan passages, metaphor records, lexical units, lemmata, subframes, and coder notes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
