About MoEML
Learn more about the project here:
The Map of Early Modern London is comprised of seven distinct, interoperable projects:
-
a digital edition of the 1561 Agas woodcut map of London;
-
an Encyclopedia of London people, places, topics, and terms;
-
a Library of marked-up texts rich in London toponyms;
-
an anthology of old-spelling and modern editions of all the Elizabethan, Jacobean, and Caroline mayoral shows (modern editions forthcoming);
-
the
London Parish
project (by Christopher Highley; forthcoming); -
and
Browsing the Bookstalls of St. Paul’s
project (by Erica Zimmer; forthcoming).
MoEML’s six databases support all the interoperable projects:
-
a Gazetteer of locations (e.g., streets, sites, playhouses, taverns, churches, wards, and topographical features);
-
a Personography of early modern Londoners both historical and literary;
-
an Orgography of organizations (e.g., livery companies and other corporations);
-
a Bibliography of primary and secondary sources;
-
a Mapography of early modern city maps;
-
and a Glossary of terms relevant to early modern London.
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 allows users to visualize, overlay, combine, and query the information in
the MoEML databases.
