Implications for issue #42 - change in place identification #43

Open NinaCengic opened 7 years ago

NinaCengic commented 7 years ago

In reference to previous issue #42, should I change my place identification into, for example:

Nomen: Arar Label: West URi: (find new) Nomen: Tigris Label: East URI: (find new)

and change accordingly in all our spreadsheets/documents?

nevenjovanovic commented 7 years ago

No, @NinaCengic , do not change anything for Arar and Tigris. This is a rhetorical use of place reference - the primary sense (great river in the East / West) is very much present here. Regardless of what the commentary says. This is not the same as "the Northern wind", because you cannot see the wind, contrary to a river, which is a very tangible thing.

NinaCengic commented 7 years ago

Yes, I agree.

I gave it some thought later, after I had opened the issue, and got to a conclusion that the rivers are very much physical places. Also, we decided in the beginning not to annotate meanings but things. When we assign time category as 'everlasting', we note this slight shift from physicality of the two rivers.

Thanks.
