The project "Electronic corpus of Polish medieval Latin" is looking for 2 people to work on the annotation of Latin texts
What is the work about?
The annotation includes:
1.marking the structure of the Latin text (separating headings, titles, quotes, etc .; removing the critical apparatus, non-Latin text, etc.) and
2. proofreading the text.
What conditions do we offer?
1. Annotators will start working in September 2019 In the second half of August 2019, we will organize a meeting of the annotators team.
2. Contractors will work remotely. Cyclical team meetings will be held over the Internet, but we will also organize a stationary meeting at least twice a year - we will cover the cost of annotators' participation from the project funds.
3. We are hiring in the project on the basis of a civil law contract (for specific work). The period of completing the entire work (approx. 2400 standard pages, standard page = approx. 500 words) is 12 months. It is possible to conclude a new contract for the next 12-month period. The experience of annotators so far shows that the implementation of the task may require a dedication of about 60-80 hours per month.
4. The total remuneration for the performance of the entire work will be PLN 18,000 gross. For organizational reasons, we will pay the remuneration in parts (intervals) of two months based on the results of the work (parts of the work) in the amount of PLN 3,000 gross for the development of each part of the work, i.e. 700 standard pages (standard page = approx. 500 words). The exact calculation will take into account the difficulty of the text. Arrears at work exceeding two months will result in the termination of the contract.

- excellent command of the Latin language confirmed by a diploma of at least a BA in classical philology,
