Subject: [Vsg] Nom Heritage Archive

Those of you interested in Vietnamese literary culture may want to consider an internet archive that the Vietnamese Nom Preservation Foundation has begun. Our first text is the Tale of Kieu in six versions dating from 1866 to 1902. We have digitized these versions with their quoc-ngu transliterations, scholarly notes, and various tools for textual inspection at http://128.122.140.98/vnpf/nfkieu.php This is a pre-Alpha version for in-house testing, so we would be grateful for any comments that you might have. Be sure to move your cursor through the text to see the pop-up footnotes. Please send any comments to info@nomfoundation.org . Our next Nom text will be Dai Viet Su Ky Toan Thu, The Complete History of Vietnam (1697).
