erthaos-23 is a digital analysis tool for the semi-automated identification of narrative motifs in folktale texts. It supports the annotation of content-related features at the motif and episode levels. graphauswerter supports the graph-based analysis of annotated text data and visualizes both the corpus and the interconnections of folktale types recorded in the repertoire. grundforauswerter enables the systematic collection, extraction, and comparative presentation of core components of folktale types in standardized content summaries. annotation(en) - This tool enumerates the annotations present in each individual text. It can be applied either (i) to fairy-tale texts of a specific type or (ii) across types to all texts. The output offers a concise overview of the annotations introduced in each text and facilitates the comparative evaluation of annotated fairy-tale texts.
