While my interest in philosophy internet resources is focussed on non-PDF and non-HTML options such as Curl from http://www.curl.com/ I do applaud the work at the perseus project of tufts.edu
One useful Herclitus link is closely tied to the perseus project and that is here at philocetes.
As you can see from their Heraclitus page, they offer a few options for viewing original Greek text.
At the Tufts Perseus project, once you go to a text, say of Virgil, there will be an option towards the upper-right corner to "load" or to "focus". Think of "focus" as a "flip" to one language or the other in the main left window: the "load" option can bring up multiple translations to the right in drop-down panes.
What is missing here - and, granted, can be added - is the sort of annotation options easily available to a site-specific browser. This would be even moreso for a browser written using a web content language such as Curl and wrapping a library such as the Apple WebKit.
My best hunch is to generate that Curl framework using a smart language such as Oz or a web language such as Rebol or a text-savvy goal-directed language such as ObjectIcon. But we'll see.
I have various notes on this over at aule-browser.com and the aule-browser blog.

One reason to keep the fragments of Heraclitus in a sidebar when reading Heidgger is to be reminded of the bad pun that survives: the "bow" and "bios".
ReplyDeleteHeidegger's polemics include calculating "zealots" and their "prey": he was never above ad hominem - in private he delighted in it. IT was the very stuff of his parochial upbringing.
