Curated Study 2 - The Nara List - This is an example of data type 2

Internment List of French Citizens Tonkin, September 1945

Description of the resource

This record is part of a group of data resources tracing European persons who were resident or serving in East Asia during the early 20th century and who were displaced as a result of national border changes and conflicts. It is one component of Divisive Power of Citizenship—an SNSF-funded project (grant number 100011_184860/1).

The attached dataset contains information about 4,784 internees released by U.S. personnel in September 1945 from internment camps in Hanoi and Haiphong.

The dataset is an export from an Invenio corpus repository, maintained at https://citizenship.freizo.org/ which is searchable via a tailored historic persons data model and supports a IIIF service. However the data is independently-consumable JSON described by a JSON Schema. WC3-based scientific annotation has been employed to structure digital representations of the printed and hand-written source material.

Transcription data provided here as a Web Annotation Data Model (WADM) annotation collection serialized in JSON, is linked to context in the Archives Nationales d'Outre Mer source documents via the respective digital page file. This data can be used with the InvenioRDM corpus repository IIIF service to connect person instances interactively to context in the source documents. Provided principally for analysis preservation and verification purposes, transcription data it is not designed for machine use.

A project website at https://www.divisive-power.org/ offers a GUI as well as search facilities. This website employs an API having access to all of the DPCL sub-collection data in this repository.
