Grotefend - digital

Calendars, Feasts, Saints

    Abstract

    Grotefend - digital is an RDF representation of the saints' register and the diocesan and religious calendars from Grotefend's 'Zeitrechnung des Deutschen Mittelalters und der Neuzeit', which was implemented using the ontology "Ontology for the representation of medieval calendar data". This makes the Grotefend data instances uniquely identifiable and available as Linked Open Data.
