Sample PhiloLogic Databases

March 2009: Most of the samples below are down pending migration to a new server.

In lieu of the original samples, you might be interested in some current implementations of various databases under PhiloLogic3:

Migrated demonstration databases We hope to have the rest of the original samples back soon.

These demonstration databases were provided by various humanities computing projects. Each database was loaded under Philologic with very little configuring to allow for MySQL bibliographic searching and personalized result headers. Refer to the documentation for specific details on the load process.

Many thanks to the Brown University Women Writers Project, the Margaret Sanger Papers Project, the Victorian Women Writers Project, Martin Mueller's Nameless Shakespeare Project, Documenting the American South, and the British Women Romantic Poets Project for providing us with these texts. We have built other datasets, but public release is pending approval from the data providers.
