## Overview

INTRO is a Linked Data ontology for representing interpreted intertextual, interpictorial, and intermedial relations. A researcher models a reading or research finding as an interpretive actualization, describing a typed relation between research entities and, optionally, features at different levels of granularity. The README documents these concepts and alignments; no source excerpts were provided, so the graph shows only documented relationships, not implementation call flow.

Main entry points: [`INTRO_beta202506.owl`](https://github.com/boberreither/intro/blob/master/INTRO_beta202506.owl) (Interrelation)
