Trithemius Corpus

Quality tier table

Every translated edition is graded chunk-by-chunk against its own Latin (see Methodology §6). Corpus-wide: 4353 graded chunks, mean faithfulness 4.63/5, and 0.0% flagged hallucinated. These are machine-assisted editorial ratings, not certification as human translations or critical editions. Looking for the reading index instead? Browse the works.

Conservative recalibration: every former S rating is now displayed as A. This is a one-level downgrade across the corpus; further work-by-work grading remains necessary.

Per-work quality scoreboard: tier, pages, genre cluster, faithfulness, fluency, and source-damage density.
