The database as it was initially designed at the start of the project has evolved considerably. Besides the quotations and definitions taken from texts and which will render the fluctuating meanings of terms belonging to the European artistic vocabulary (according to authors, languages, etc.), the database will provide a digital library with direct access to all the art theory books included in our corpus, and will also offer different types of bibliographies, whether general or targeted by authors, terms and concepts. It still will enable the development of networks both semantic and conceptual, and to view them through visual mapping tools.
