iiif-manifests-demo

This repository contains IIIF manifests created as part of Biblissima's demos to fulfill specific use cases in the field of manuscripts studies. These demos make use of the Mirador viewer to display the digital objects.

Online demos on Biblissima website: http://demos.biblissima-condorcet.fr

Here is a short description of each demo and the specific character of the manifest:

Proto-BBMN 1713

Virtual reconstruction of the primitive state of the Bibliotheca bibliothecarum manuscriptorum nova (in 1713), a huge "catalogue of catalogues" of manuscripts from more than 200 libraries in Europe, by Bernard of Montfaucon. The work of identification and reconstruction has been made by Jérémy Delmulle (postdoctoral researcher, KU Leuven – IRHT – BnF), the IIIF manifest by Régis Robineau.

IIIF Manifest (see bbmn-1713 folder):

Grandes Chroniques de France - Châteauroux BM ms. 5

Virtual reconstruction of the original state of a French medieval manuscript (Châteauroux BM ms. 5: Grandes Chroniques de France, 15th century). The manuscript's 14 illuminations were cut out at some point in the past and eventually ended up at the BnF in the 19th century. The full manuscript and the individual cuttings have been digitized and made available online, in the BVMM and in Gallica respectively. The manifest attempts to virtually reconstruct the original manuscript by repositioning the miniatures on top of the corresponding gaps in the mutilated pages. This use case has been suggested by François Bougard and the manifest has been created by Régis Robineau.

IIIF Manifest (see chateauroux-bm-ms-5 folder):

canvases with two image annotations, the second one targeting a specific region of the canvas (illumination cuttings)
ranges for the captions (ranges pointing to each canvas bearing an illumination cutting, with the caption as label of the range)
labels for image annotations (in order to display the illumination caption in the Layers tab in Mirador)
