• Resumen

  • This paper will describe a new project that is being undertaken by the Dictionary of Old Danish: digital netbased publication of medieval manuscripts. As starting-point the manuscript Codex Holmiensis K47, an Old Danish paper manuscript from c. 1500, was chosen. It contains rhymed romances of chivalry. The manuscript is presented in three ways: first as a facsimile edition, then as a transliteration, and finally a translation of the text into Modem Danish. From the transliteration links are made to the relevant dictionary articles in a digitised version of the Dictionary of Old Danish. The paper deals with problems concerning all three presentations and their connections.
