Digital library of late-antique latin texts

The Digital Library of Late-Antique Latin Texts—DigilibLT—publishes secular prose texts written in Latin in late antiquity (from the second to the seventh century AD). The texts are annotated according to the XML-TEI standards and are offered free of charge to the public for reading and research.

Since its creation in 2010, DigilibLT has achieved significant goals: near 400 texts have already been uploaded, a number that is constantly increasing. In addition, in recent years DigilibLT has added two significant extensions to the canon of authors and works initially designed for inclusion. The first concerns the grammatical works, uploaded to the site based on the best and most recent critical editions. Since 2019, DigilibLT has started another expansion line, this time regarding late Roman law. The first step has been the completion of a Canon of Roman Law, now available on the website alongside the other canon. Uploading of texts has recently started and actually it is in full swing.

The implementation of the library continues in compliance with the principles stated from the beginning: clarity in the indication of the editions adopted and any editorial interventions that may have been made; enrichment of the works with short entries on late-antique authors and works; bibliographical references. The query templates and the search options remain unchanged.

Libraries, digital or physical, couldn’t exist without readers. For more than ten years, we have enjoyed the encouragement of a wide international readership made up of scholars, students and members of the general public. Moreover, after the initial funding from the Piedmont Region, in recent years DigilibLT has also benefited from the support of the Foundation Cassa di Risparmio di Vercelli. [R.Tabacco]
