About
This historical-critical edition of the Syriac and Arabic Ahiqar texts is a project funded by the German Research Foundation. It is hosted by the Faculty of Theology of the University of Göttingen (opens new window) and by the Göttingen State and University Library (SUB) (opens new window). The texts were encoded by the researchers using the TextGrid Lab (opens new window). The SUB Technical Team developed and provided a TEI schema and advised on encoding. For the technical realization of the Digital Edition, a generic TextAPI was developed to deliver the data and the TIDO Viewer to display the data.
