The Connected Corpus collection

Associate Professor of Philosophy Christiana Olfert (with assistant editors Corinne Gartner and Adele Watkins at Wellesley College) has launched a new project called The Connected Corpus: a first-of-its-kind collection of annotated digital texts that helps readers engage with Ancient Greek and Roman philosophy in a new way. Its curated annotations describe philosophical connections between different Ancient texts and authors, and they connect the reader to those texts in translation and the original language. In a collaborative effort between Tufts philosophy students and over 100 contributors from 6 institutions, the first annotated edition of Plato's Republic has been published with funding from Tufts Springboard Awards and Wellesley College's Knapp Social Science Center.
