About the project

The Problem

• Genesis 3
• Alice In Wonderland / Lewis Carroll
  
• As You Like It / William Shakespeare
  

We need a tool to visually organize the information which is gathered :

• Relating other documents to the analyzed document
• Displaying discussion created by other people who have analyzed this document
  
• Allowing many interpretations for certain parts of the document

The Solution

Texplanation is a system which supplies convenient workspace for organizing information.
Given the main document, and information sources relevant to it, the system offers an interface for gathering,
organizing and linking information for those sources to the main document.

Texplanation allows the creating of multi link system between different elements in the extended document,
and also, a variety of convenient ways to explore the gathered information.

Texplanation allows the user to create a project, I which he can organize all the element related to analyzing
one, or more, documents.
