Cicero: Academica, we don't display some content #10

Open monzug opened 5 years ago

monzug commented 5 years ago

compare with Perseus, we are missing the book dedication, Praefatio, SIGLA CODICUM CICERONIS ACADEMICI I and the Addenda et Corrigenda, also LIBER SECUNDUS et LIBER TERtIUS and the Index Fragmentorum. We do display the book 1, section 1 as in Scaife. The content is available in the xml source (some content has been commented out). How important is this? I have no idea... but we do have the content, so why not displaying it?

The front matter is completely commented out in the XML source. It's a data issue, we will have to decide (1) if this text is important enough to exclude and if yes (2) do we need to fix the source in order to do so.

as we do have the content anyway, why not displaying it (if it's not a big deal...)?

I realized that Lucullus, which is a stand alone book right now, is a book (liber 3 or liber 2 depending of editions) of Academica for some latin sites (poesia Latina, loeb classical library). in Perseus, it's a separate book and I am pretty sure there is some good reason behind all this.
