The latest #ChrysoCollate update brings a new variant graph view! It’s not a game changer since the main interface is already awesome, but it’s definitely shiny and fun to use.

After seven years in Madrid (including two commuting to Salamanca), I’ve left Spain, feeling sad for the friends I’ve left behind. Sharing some shots from the long drive north and my new home in Brest.

Now deep in the weeds in the Arabic section of the Crónica de 1344, parsing Arabic onomastics and toponymy in a Castilian translation of a Galician-Portuguese version of a Portuguese translation of an Arabic treatise. Slowly losing my mind.

It took me a while to draw this stemma, only to lose the file and have to recreate it from scratch. It might be a bit niche, but after a year of collation, I'm happy to finally have it.

I just (re)discovered a privilege issued by Sancho IV in 1285 (it originally belonged to the Archivo de Osuna, and a modern copy exists in the Archivo Histórico Nacional). The original was sold at some point and ended up in a big US university. Its most remarkable feature is Sancho's lead seal.

It is nice when you get help from librarians of the past, like this one, who drew the outline of the watermark in a folio of the Spanish translation of the first book of Jean Froissart's Chroniques.

This is what happens when you take a side quest way too seriously. It is not quite finished yet, but here it is, a working edition of Nieremberg's translation of Sancho IV's Lucidario. I have no idea of what to do with it.

I'm not sure of the CER of this text. To compare it, the adhoc model I developed with @transkribus.bsky.social, has a CER of 6.8% (but had many less real errors when applied).

@hsprtl.bsky.social Yesterday I was doing my monthly search for new Hispanic manuscripts in your catalogue and stumbled upon this rudimentary HTR . Is it part of a new feature?
