DEA-related occurrences in the 1795 Italian translation of The Castle of Otranto*: analytical appendix and supplementary dataset*

This dataset contains a structured analytical table of textual occurrences with potential demo-ethno-anthropological (DEA) relevance identified in the 1795 Italian translation of The Castle of Otranto. The table includes the original Italian terms or phrases, English translations, occurrence counts, references to the printed book pages, DEA-related domains, and brief interpretive notes. The dataset was produced as a supplementary analytical appendix to support a study on the digital recontextualisation of Walpole’s novel as a narrative interface for the enhancement of Apulian intangible cultural heritage, with particular attention to Apulian folklore, oral traditions, local legends, ritual practices, and vernacular religious expressions. In this sense, the dataset documents the textual nodes through which the Gothic narrative can be connected to folklore-related materials from southern Italy. Occurrence counts should be considered working counts based on close reading and OCR-assisted scanning of the text. The dataset is intended for scholarly reuse, citation, and further refinement.本数据集包含一份结构化分析表格，收录了1795年意大利语译本《奥特兰托城堡》（The Castle of Otranto）中识别出的、具有潜在民俗-民族志-人类学（demo-ethno-anthropological，DEA）研究价值的文本语料出现情况。该表格涵盖原文意大利语词汇或短语、英语译法、出现频次、印刷版书籍页码索引、DEA相关研究领域，以及简要阐释说明。本数据集作为补充性分析附录编制，用于支撑一项研究：该研究将沃波尔的这部小说作为叙事接口，以赋能普利亚非物质文化遗产保护，尤其聚焦普利亚民俗、口头传统、地方传说、仪式实践以及本土宗教表达。就此而言，本数据集记录了可将哥特式叙事与意大利南部民俗相关材料建立关联的文本节点。此处的出现频次为基于逐字精读与光学字符识别（Optical Character Recognition，OCR）辅助文本扫描得到的暂定统计值。本数据集仅供学术复用、引用及进一步优化使用。
