Perseus Search

I have two questions:

1) I created a Perseus collection by simply using the code :perseus. This placed all the perseus resources in the collection. I am interested in finding out Plato's views or thoughts on the topic of humility. Any suggestions on how to do that search using the collection I created entitled "My Perseus Collection." Do the rules for doing a clause search apply when searching in a collection.

2) Does anyone have any thought about the usefulness of the new classic's bundle -- Noet?

I was wondering the same thing.

Hi Carl

This placed all the perseus resources in the collection. I am interested in finding out Plato's views or thoughts on the topic of humility. Any suggestions on how to do that search using the collection I created entitled "My Perseus Collection."

I would probably create a different collection using "author:plato" and then search against that.

Do the rules for doing a clause search apply when searching in a collection.

No (at least not here) - as clause search requires specific tagging and only currently available for one Hebrew and one Greek resource

2) Does anyone have any thought about the usefulness of the new classic's bundle -- Noet?

In what context? Or how would you define "useful" here?

Do the rules for doing a clause search apply when searching in a collection.

If you mean by that can you use the clause search syntax (such as person:, thing:) outside of the Clause Search tool, the answer is no.

The best way to search the author's works is to create a collection just of that author's works and then search that. I have a Plato collection and searched for humility and got two hits: one each in two works.

(I see Graham gave you a more complete answer while I was typing.)
