link to perseus text by canonical uri for chunk, not work (hestia priority: desideratum)

[atomrab]

The Perseus text links throughout GapVis take you to the first book/chapter/section of Herodotus (http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.01.0126). Since the Perseus text also has book/chapter divisions, could we use these programmatically to link back to the right section? For example, http://enridaga.github.io/gapvis/gap2/#book/1/read/4 refers to book 1, chapter 4, or this in Perseus: http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0126%3Abook%3D1%3Achapter%3D4%3Asection%3D1

It would be even smarter to link our text by sections to the Citation URI that Perseus now puts out using the Canonical URN model -- in this case, http://data.perseus.org/citations/urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0016.tlg001.perseus-eng1:1.4.1

We'd have to mess around with the last number (section) which we're not using for the sake of user interface. But again, is this something that could be worked out? In terms of both short-term and long-term linking, it would make a lot of sense.

Is there some feedback potential with the side project Elton's collaborator Thomas Efer at Leipzig has been working on? He's linked co-occurrence edges to text chunks identified by canonical URN: e.g.

Can we pass this back into the Hestia text to provide links to the canonical citation through Gapvis? That would be cool. It would be good to have protocols to move info back and forth anyway, because Thomas has the uncorrected Pleiades+ version of the text, and I've fixed a lot of this by hand now in Hestia/Gapvis.

Specify the Perseus link to point to chapters should not be hard. I'll add
to the schedule.
About Sections, it is the case that GapVis does not know about them.
Looking at the HTML code, I can see double
separating bunch of texts
which may be the Sections. If this information could be made more
structured in the HTML, we may then build specific links to sections.

Re Sections: the "book_chapter_section" numbers are in the Hestia data
passed to GapVis (gap_tokens.page_id field).
