Antonio Magliabechi's chronologic letter inventory: Letter and person metadata from Garfagnini's edition curated by the SKILLNET project

This dataset contains curated files derived from the cleaning process of a digitized version of the chronologic inventory of Antonio Magliabechi's letters compiled by Manuela Doni Garfagnini (1). The digitization and conversion process was initiated by Ingeborg van Vugt and, the parsing, cleaning and mapping process was done in collaboration with Liliana Melgar during the SKILLNET project.
<br>
The printed version of the inventory (1) was digitized and OCR-ed. The raw OCR-ed files were parsed and cleaned with the purpose of converting the inventory to a tabular format. Subsequently, the person names were mapped to the person names in the dataset of the Catalogus Epistolarum Neerlandicarum (CEN) (2). The resulting cleaned, parsed and mapped version is deposited here.
<br>
This dataset is used as part of the article "Unlinked: Conflict Resolution and Structural Balance in the Early Modern Republic of Letters" (DOI forthcoming) written by Ingeborg van Vugt, with the collaboration of Liliana Melgar for the data preparation (3).
