I would like to make my Alex Catalogue more accessible as linked data,
but I need some help in regards to the syntactical use of owl:sameAs.
I am well on my way to minting URIs and "cool" URLs, I think. For
example:
* negotiation - http://infomotions.com/etexts/id/more-utopia-221
* RDF - http://infomotions.com/etexts/data/more-utopia-221
* HTML - http://infomotions.com/etexts/page/more-utopia-221
More importantly, I need to figure out how to make my RDF richer. Here
is what I have so far for my local copy of Thomas More's Utopia:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<rdf:RDF
xmlns:rdf = "http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#";
xmlns:dcterms = "http://purl.org/dc/terms/";
xmlns:owl = "http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl# >
<rdf:Description rdf:about="http://infomotions.com/etexts/id/more-utopia-221
">
<dcterms:creator>More, Thomas</dcterms:creator>
<dcterms:date>0000-00-00</dcterms:date>
<dcterms:identifier rdf:resource="more-utopia-221" />
<dcterms:language>en</dcterms:language>
<dcterms:publisher>Wiretap Electronic Text Archive</
dcterms:publisher>
<dcterms:rights>http://creativecommons.org/licenses/GPL/2.0/</
dcterms:rights>
<dcterms:source rdf:resource="gopher://wiretap.spies.com:70/00/Library/Classic/utopia.txt
" />
<dcterms:subject>man</dcterms:subject>
<dcterms:subject>people</dcterms:subject>
<dcterms:subject>utopia</dcterms:subject>
<dcterms:subject>english</dcterms:subject>
<dcterms:subject>literature</dcterms:subject>
<dcterms:title>Utopia</dcterms:title>
<dcterms:type>text</dcterms:type>
<dcterms:isFormatOf rdf:resource="http://infomotions.com/etexts/literature/english/1500-1599/more-utopia-221.txt
" />
<dcterms:isFormatOf rdf:resource="http://infomotions.com/etexts/concordance/more-utopia-221
" />
<dcterms:isFormatOf rdf:resource="http://infomotions.com/etexts/page/more-utopia-221
" />
</rdf:Description>
</rdf:RDF>
Specifically, I need to know how to:
* specify that the title is the same as
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Utopia_(book)
* specify the author is the same as http://dbpedia.org/resource/Thomas_More
* point the subject words to things like a linked data version of
WordNet
Is most of this done by simply adding an owl:sameAs attribute to the
appropriate element(s), like this:
<rdf:Description
rdf:about="http://infomotions.com/etexts/id/more-utopia-221";
owl:sameAs="http://dbpedia.org/resource/Utopia_(book)">
or
<dcterms:creator owl:sameAs="http://dbpedia.org/resource/
Thomas_More">More, Thomas</dcterms:creator>
