How we work
As a first step of the editing process, an Yi Jing work is compared with the original Old Chinese text in order to clearly determine the translation structure chosen by the work. This results in the assignment of text segments from the work to predefined database fields (for example, “Judgement”, “Image”, or “Changing Lines”) in our Yi Jing database. Afterwards, the edition is scanned and carefully transferred from the original text into the database by hand. At the same time, a license for electronic publication is obtained from the copyright holder.
From the commentary works, we digitize only the hexagram comments, no introductory texts to Yi Jing or any detailed footnotes. As an introduction to the Yi Jing, we have created a separate Q&A section in the app and on this website.
Finally, data entry errors are eliminated in a “peer review” process.
