The graph
The transmission of the texts, as recorded — nothing inferred.
The figure
What this is. The transmission and citation graph of the library's texts, as structured data (not read out of anyone's prose): the authors, the works, the editions, and the relations between them. An edge stands here because it is recorded in the library's data, and every edge is listed in the table below. Nothing is added by resemblance — two texts that share an author or a title are not joined by an edge this page drew.
Where this stands. The graph is being authored from the beginning, so it is SPARSE. What is here now is the structural skeleton: 2 authors, 2 texts, 2 editions; and the edges that join them (wrote, translates). The editorial edges the model names — translated by, cites, derives from, commentary on — are NOT drawn, because none is recorded yet. They are knowledge about the tradition, not a derivation from any file, and they will be added as they are settled; until then this page shows the skeleton rather than a guess. The citation graph of the blog's essays is a different graph and lives with those essays.
How to read it. The filters below the heading (well, above the figure) show and hide a node type or an edge type without changing the data; a click on a node highlights the edges that touch it. Every node and every edge is also in the table, which is the record the figure is drawn from.
