 Project Gutenberg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A slogan of the project is "break down the bars of ignorance and illiteracy", because its volunteers aim to continue spreading public literacy and appreciation for the literary heritage just as public libraries began to do in the early 20th century.
Project Gutenberg has been criticized for lack of scholarly rigor in its etexts: for example, in inadequate detailing of editions used and in the omission of original published prefaces and critical apparatus.
Project Gutenberg Australia hosts many texts which are public domain according to Australian copyright law, but still under copyright (or of uncertain status) in the United States, with a focus on Australian writers and books about Australia.

 Encyclopedia: Project Rastko
The humanities are a group of academic subjects united by a commitment to studying aspects of the human condition and a qualitative approach that generally prevents a single paradigm from coming to define any discipline.
Saint Sava (1175 or 1176 - January 12, 1235 or 1236), originally the prince Rastko Nemanjic (son of the Serbian king Stefan Nemanja and brother of Stefan Prvovencani, founder of the Serbian medieval state), is the first Serb archbishop (1219-1233) and the most important saint in the Serbian Orthodox Church.
Project Gutenberg (PG) was launched by Michael Hart in 1971 in order to provide a library, on what would later become the Internet, of free electronic versions (sometimes called e-texts) of physically existing books.

Public domain works are scanned by the project managers and the images are run through optical character recognition (OCR) software.
Then individual pages are made available for volunteers to proofread by comparing the scanned page and the OCR output on one screen, thus distributing the time-consuming error correction process.
In October 2004, Distributed Proofreaders posted their 5,000th book to Project Gutenberg; about 300 new books were being finished each month.

 About Project Gutenberg — Project Gutenberg EU
Project Gutenberg was founded by US citizen Michael Hart in 1971, when he published his first etext, the American Declaration of Independence.
In cooperation with Project Rastko, Project Gutenberg EU could leverage the power of thousands of volunteers using the advanced Distributed Proofreaders' proofing model to quickly rescue hundreds of books and inject them in an increasingly healthy public domain.
Project Gutenberg EU may try and play a role in convincing the governments of Europe of such a healthy public domain.

 Distributed Proofreaders - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Public domain works, typically books with expired copyright, are scanned by the project managers and the images are run through optical character recognition (OCR) software.
Unfortunately, this software is presently far from perfect, and often a large number of errors appear in the resulting text.
Each page goes through two rounds of user proofreading, and two rounds of user formatting, followed by post-processing, where the book is prepared for upload to Project Gutenberg.

 Romanian and Cyrillic
Project Rastko's general policy is more or less to OCR/publish version in original script, but also to provide transliterated versions into other common used scripts.
Although we are proponents of having one "official" script, we publish Serbian works in additional Latin version in order to be easily read also in Muslim or Croat areas of former Yugoslavia (which share common language with Serbian culture).
Copyright clearability does not play an issue, since Rastko's material is mostly of modern authors who gave non-exclusive rights to publish their works on the Net for free.

On the other hand, the use of the fantastic, ironic, allegoric and paradoxical for illustrating a world shows one's attitude toward that world as well.
Thus the achieved distortion of reality (be it projected into the past, present or future), contains as well a strong critical dimension, but implicitly and subtly or non-typically expressed.
Intertextuality and citation at the level of genre and motives is the next and probably the most typical feature of postmodern literature.
