Subclass of:

• aaao:ZE35 Locative Status
• aaao:ZE35 Locative Status

Scope note:

An instance of text sequence status is a collective ascription to a written text sequence of a formal association to another written text sequence, in relation to which it is conceived as occupying a determinate place (i.e., the order in which they are to be read, wherein one text sequence follows another). The substance of the text sequence status is the communal attribution of a recognizable sequencing order between the designated text fields

As opposed to the connections created between a text field and the physical substrate upon which it is written, text sequence statuses are created de jure rather than de facto and create socially recognized connections between them. For example, an editorial annotation may indicate that a paragraph from a 'lower' position on the writing surface (such as a page) is to be inserted between two paragraphs at a 'higher' position (or on another page altogether). In such cases, the sequence in which the paragraphs are to be read does not coincide with the physical position of the text field in question, or the exact ordering of the paragraphs may be the subject of research or scholarly debate, but we do have de jure attribution from which some knowledge may be derived and documented with an instance of Text Sequence Status.

Instances of text sequence status are recognizable through evidence of community members adopting the intentional stance of so recognizing this status, as observable from direct witnesses, through the reports of competent observers or through evidence of a declarative act initiating this status.

Instances of text sequence status may come to be through a formal process such as a declarative act of such definition, or may have arisen through habit, fiat or be of unknown origin. Instances of text sequence status may end either though a formal process, such as a new declarative act, or may simply fade out of use, be eliminated by fiat or be of unknown reason.

Examples:

• The Text Sequence Status (ZE49) of the writing field (TX4) that carries remark #108 (E89) of Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations, written on a separate scrap of paper (E22) and inserted into the manuscript TS-227a (E22), as 'follows' the writing field (TX4) that carries remark #107 (E89), held by Wittgenstein's literary executors (E74).

• The Text Sequence Status (ZE49) of the writing field identified as p.x55u61 (TX4) on page 1v of manuscript 20-Ms-187-188 (E22), written by Gottried Semper (E21), as 'follows' the writing field identified as p.yP1OvN (TX4), held by Semper-Edition SNF Projekt (E74) (www.semper-edition.ch)

In First Order Logic:
