Take a question
with you.

01 / A passage and a question

Keep the passage, its exact edition and your interpretation together. Mark what is quoted, inferred or still uncertain.

Book and edition:
Chapter or page:
Passage or source link:
My question:
What the text directly supports:
A possible interpretation:
An alternative or counterexample:
What remains open:

02 / A reading conversation in Space

Create a Page in your own Space for one question. Add the source link and your reading notes, then use this prompt in a linked chat. Keep private library records on a Page whose sharing you have checked.

Help me examine this passage in its identified edition.
Separate quotation, paraphrase, interpretation and hypothesis.
Use only the sources I supply; identify any missing context.
Offer two plausible readings and the strongest textual objection to each.
Do not infer my personality, history or mental health from my books.
Ask one useful question. Leave the judgment to me.

Pages and linked chats depend on your ChatGPT account and access. This website does not automatically create a Page or give access to a private Space.

03 / Compare two physical copies

Record the work, the evidence for the edition, and the individual copy’s marks, location and loan separately. Leave uncertain details explicitly unconfirmed.

04 / A little time for reading

Choose 15, 30 or 60 minutes and follow an identified source. The suggested allocations are prompts for your attention, not measured reading speeds.
