This page presents a set of statistics on documents, links, and database content in the MoEML project. The final column indicates the number added since the previous release of the site. In some cases, the number is negative because we have deprecated pages, recategorized a location under a new placetype, or because we have introduced an efficiency in our tagging practice or taxonomies. N/A in the final column means that the document or entity type did not exist in the previous release.

© Fresh digital scans of the Agas map were generously shared with MoEML by kind permission of the City of London, London Metropolitan Archives (LMA). Copyright law prohibits further reproduction of the LMA images in any form under any circumstances. However, the MoEML edition of the Agas Map that appears on this site has been extensively remediated, with material supplied by graphic artists on the basis of the evidence of other maps (most notably the Durham House strip and the Smithfield strip). The MoEML team has lightly edited lines and skewed the map in order to better align the map sections. You are free to use the MoEML edition of the Agas map, with credit to MoEML, in scholarly articles and books, dissertations and theses, conference papers, and classroom settings. For more information on how to interact with, download, and cite the map, see MoEML’s Use the Map page.

For site identifications, we are particularly indebted to the work of Adrian Prockter and Robert Taylor, A to Z of Elizabethan London (London: Harry Margary, 1979), which was our main source when we created the first intranet version of the site in 1999. Occasionally, our articles will clarify or correct a Prockter and Taylor identification.

MoEML The Map of Early Modern London The Agas Map The Map of Early Modern London (MoEML) comprises four distinct, interoperable projects. MoEML began in 1999 as a digital atlas of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century London based on the 1560s Agas woodcut map of the city. MoEML now includes an encyclopedia of early modern London people and places, a library of mayoral shows and other texts rich in London toponyms, and a forthcoming versioned edition of John Stow’s A Survey of London. The project consists of TEI-encoded files in Subversion repository, processed daily by a Jenkins continuous integration server into a static alpha site. We periodically release one of these static sites under a version number (currently v.6.6) to our public-facing URL (https://mapoflondon.uvic.ca). The location files use GIS tags to pin data to locations on the historical Agas map, which is delivered using a system based on OpenLayers 3. london, shakespeare, william shakespeare, renaissance, early modern, literature, streets, sites, middleton, dekker, stow, john stow, survey of london, taylor, wards, ward, map, agas, moeml, map of london, map of early modern london, uvic, university of victoria, digital atlas, digital map, GIS, TEI, jenstad, janelle jenstad, HCMC, humanities computing and media centre, anthony munday, munday, heywood, thomas heywood, mayoral shows, mayoral pageants, lord mayors’ shows, occasional drama, civic pageantry, martin holmes, mark kaethler Click on a square to zoom in.

Change the map opacity Send Agas Suggestion Send suggestions about an Agas location Agas Location Suggestion: Thanks for helping us improve MoEML’s edition of the Agas Map! Please fill in as much of the information below as you can. When you click send on this email, your information will go directly to Project Director Janelle Jenstad for follow-up. 1. What type of change are you proposing? Common changes include (a) adding to the Placeography and to the Agas Map a location that MoEML has not yet included in its Placeography; (b) mapping a location that is listed in the MoEML Placeography but has not yet been mapped on the Agas Map; (c) moving a point, line, or shape on the Agas Map; (d) adjusting a shape to better capture the footprint of the location on the Agas Map. 2. AUTHORITY NAME: If you are recommending that we add a new location (a), what do you recommend that we use as the authority name for the location? I.e., what name do scholars use in secondary historical criticism? If there’s no criticism, what do you think the authority name ought to be? Note that we generally take as our authority name the name most commonly used by early modern Londoners in 1600. We modernize the spelling according to standard editorial practice. 3. XML:ID: If you are recommended that we map or correct the map placement for a location already in the MoEML Placeography (b, c, or d), what is the XML:id of the location? The XML:id is an alphanumeric string consisting normally of four uppercase letters and a number. You’ll find this XML:ID in the URL of the location. For example, the XML:id of St. Bride’s church is STBR1 and the URL for the location is https://mapoflondon.uvic.ca/STBR1.htm. In most browsers, the URL will show up somewhere on your screen when you hover over the name of the location. 4. CERTAINTY: If you are recommending that we add map coordinates for an existing or new MoEML location (a or b), please tell us how certain you are about the placement of the location on the map. Options are: high, medium, or low. 5. SOURCES: Please indicate the source(s) of your knowledge, especially if we should be giving credit to the source(s). 6. XML Code: Please draw the location on the Agas Map using the built-in drawing tools and paste the code from the red box into this email. See the Add MoEML Locations to the Agas Map page for instructions on how to draw on the map. 7. MORE INFORMATION: Please provide any necessary information or comments to help us assess and implement your suggestion. 8. CREDIT: Would you like to be credited for your contribution to the map? If yes, please give your name and a brief bio-bibliographical note. 9. FOLLOW-UP: May the Project Director follow up with you? Please give your email address if you would like follow-up at an email address other than the one from which you are sending this message? Born digital; auto-generated with XSLT.
