Comprised of 7 distinct projects some including a digital edition of the 1561 Agas woodcut map, an anthology of old spellings, the "London Parish" project, and a mapography of early modern city maps. A few of these projects show an early map of London, an encyclopedia of people, places, and terms, and an anthology of old spelling. These projects help people better understand how different London was back then as compared to modern-day.
Requirements
You need to be able to know how to read maps and work with primary and secondary texts simultaneously.
Alternatives
There are no other apps that give the same information or do the same work.
Get Started
All of the files in the databases use a common TEI tagset that enables users to work with primary and secondary texts simultaneously. The Map helps visualize, overlay, combine, and query the information in the MoEML databases.
