Investigative Tagging: Modelling the Early Modern Cabinet of Curiosities

Abstract

This paper presents an experiment in "investigative tagging" applied to a project that is building an archive of early modern collections of curiosities. It proposes that before we begin imposing a structure on our material of study, we need to discover the shape of the data as it presents itself in these materials. The design of this experiment is presented here, along with analysis of the results and their implication for the project, as well as some observations about the experiment and its implementation.

 

Cet essai présente une expérience "d’étiquetage d’enquête" appliquée à un projet dont le but est d’archiver des collections de curiosités du début de l’époque moderne. Il propose qu’avant de commencer à imposer une structure aux objets à l’étude, nous devons découvrir la forme des données comme elles se présentent dans ces objets. La conception de cette expérience est présentée ici, tout comme l’analyse des résultats et leur implication pour le projet ainsi que quelques observations au sujet de l’expérience et de sa mise en œuvre.
