The Digital Mapping of Edinburgh’s
Literary Heritage
James Loxley, University of Edinburgh
The ‘Palimpsest’ project
January 2014 – March 2015
Arts and Humanities Research Council funded
University of Edinburgh, School of Literatures, Languages, and Cultures
University of Edinburgh, School of Informatics
University of St Andrews, Computer-Human Interaction group
Edinburgh City of Literature Trust
The aims of the project
• Using the textmining of large collections of digitised (OCR’d) books to identify
narrative works set in Edinburgh.
• Georeferencing the Edinburgh placenames in those works to make mapping
possible.
• Creating visualisations which allow users to adopt both birds’ eye and ‘frogs’
eye’ perspectives: online interface, iOS app.
“Our aim in creating LitLong was to find out what the topography of a
literary city such as Edinburgh would look like if we allowed digital
reading to work on a very large body of texts. Edinburgh has a justly well-
known literary history, cumulatively curated down the years by its many
writers and readers. This history is visible in books, maps, walking tours
and the city’s many literary sites and sights. But might there be other
voices to hear in the chorus? Other, less familiar stories? By letting the
computer do the reading, we’ve tried to set that familiar narrative of
Edinburgh’s literary history in the less familiar context of hundreds of
other works. We also want our maps and our app to illustrate old
connections, and forge new ones, among the hundreds of literary works
we’ve been able to capture.”
The stats
What’s in our dataset?
• 550 published works – novels, short stories, memoirs, biographies,
letters
• 1,600 place names – streets, buildings, open spaces, areas,
monuments etc.
• 47,000 extracts – all focused on a place name mention
Links etc.

  • 4. The aims of the project • Using the textmining of large collections of digitised (OCR’d) books to identify narrative works set in Edinburgh. • Georeferencing the Edinburgh placenames in those works to make mapping possible. • Creating visualisations which allow users to adopt both birds’ eye and ‘frogs’ eye’ perspectives: online interface, iOS app.
  • 5. “Our aim in creating LitLong was to find out what the topography of a literary city such as Edinburgh would look like if we allowed digital reading to work on a very large body of texts. Edinburgh has a justly well- known literary history, cumulatively curated down the years by its many writers and readers. This history is visible in books, maps, walking tours and the city’s many literary sites and sights. But might there be other voices to hear in the chorus? Other, less familiar stories? By letting the computer do the reading, we’ve tried to set that familiar narrative of Edinburgh’s literary history in the less familiar context of hundreds of other works. We also want our maps and our app to illustrate old connections, and forge new ones, among the hundreds of literary works we’ve been able to capture.”
  • 6. The stats What’s in our dataset? • 550 published works – novels, short stories, memoirs, biographies, letters • 1,600 place names – streets, buildings, open spaces, areas, monuments etc. • 47,000 extracts – all focused on a place name mention
