MHG4SNA: Images and videos of social networks on arthurian romances

Description

This dataset contains images and videos of social networks (static and dynamic graphs) based on character annotations of middle high german arthurian romances.

All images and videos are part of my dissertation.

The networks can be created in gephi using the gefx files provided in the following repositories:

• zenodo: 10.5281/zenodo.7544004 
• and github: https://github.com/NoraKet/MHG4SNA/tree/v1.0.0

Texts

• Wolfram von Eschenbach: 'Parzival', in: Wolfram von Eschenbach: Werke, ed. by Karl Lachmann, 5th edition, Berlin 1891, pp. 11–388.
• Hartmann von Aue: 'Erec', ed. by Albert Leitzmann continued by Ludwig Wolff, 7th edition by Kurt Gärtner, Tübingen 2006 (Altdeutsche Textbibliothek 39).
• Hartmann von Aue: 'Iwein', ed. by G. F. Benecke and K. Lachmann, revised by Ludwig Wolff, 7th edition, part 1: Text, Berlin 1968.

Files

The network graphs are created using gephi.

The filenames indicate:

• the name of the text ("Erec", "Iwein", "Parzival"; "Parzival" consists of 16 books; it can be devided in the story of Parzival ("PARZ") and the story of Gawan ("GAW")); 
• the filters "EK" and "EK2" which indicate if narrator's comments are included or excluded from the data;
• the filter "DS" which indicates if direct speech is included or excluded from the data;
• additional filters performed in gephi, for example removed characters ("noErec"), frequence filters ("filterfreq1": all characters that only occur one time are removed), selection of books ("Parzival_3-6": contains only books 3 to 6 from "Parzival"), "Egozentriert" indicates an egocentric network;
• for videos: the playback speed which can be set in gephi's settings.
