Abstract

We present an approach at identifying a specific class of events, movement action events (MAEs), in ca. 2,800 personal let- ters exchanged by the German architect Erich Mendelsohn and his wife, Luise. A backend system uses these and other se- mantic analysis results as input for an au- thoring environment that curators can use to produce new pieces of content. The hu- man expert will receive recommendations from the system with the goal of putting together a travelogue, i. e., a description of the trips and journeys undertaken by the couple. We describe the components and also apply the system to news data.
