Abstract

This paper presents a novel prototype service that concerns the creation of a drama dataset. The approach relies on an ontological representation of the dramatic qualities, the characterizing elements of a drama that abstract from the linguistic or media expression. A toolkit for the friendly encoding of the dramatic qualities overcomes the difficulties of the formal representation.
