Doctor Angelicus 03

Reverting to the main  Corpus Thomisticum  page, the one that contains all hyperlinks to the full latin texts, one can remark that these latin texts are of very inequal sizes.

For example, If one looks at the lengths of texts in Summa Theologiae, one sees first that the Proemium's (prologue, introduction) are of length around 5K-7K bytes. (I speak of the length ot the html file with tags). These are exceptions; but now the files that contain questions may contain one or several questions. The shortest is Quaestio 143  in IIa IIae with 11671 bytes. The longest is the page that gathers questions 2 to 15 in IIIa with 512965 bytes.

Still speaking of sizes, one can add that the hyperlinks named Nota editoris (Note from the editor) lead to extremely short pages, sometimes a few lines, though they have the same impressive aspect of all other pages with big titles and coloured images.

Another thing that can be confusing in this main page. The html file uses a table and the order for reading the table is row after row. But if the window used is wide, the name of the links appear on two columns separated by a great space; and spontaneously the eye looks successively at items in the same column, which makes the numbering ununderstandable. That being understood, it is OK.

Affable Calcaire.
