http://purl.org/vocab/frbr/core#Expression
The intellectual or artistic realization of a work in the form of alpha-numeric, musical, or choreographic notation, sound, image, object, movement, etc., or any combination of such forms.
An expression is the specific intellectual or artistic form that a work takes each time it is "realized." Expression encompasses, for example, the specific words, sentences, paragraphs, etc. that result from the realization of a work in the form of a text, or the particular sounds, phrasing, etc. resulting from the realization of a musical work.
Instances of core:Expression can have the following properties:
| PROPERTY | TYPE | DESCRIPTION | RANGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| From class core:Expression | |||
| core:abridgement | owl:ObjectProperty | An expression abridged in another one. In the abridged expression some content of the previous expression is removed, but the result does not alter the content to the extent that it becomes a new work. The expressions resulting from such modification are generally autonomous in nature (i.e., they do not normally require reference to the prior expression in order to be used or understood). | core:Expression |
| core:arrangement | owl:ObjectProperty | An expression arranged in another one. In the arranged expression some content of the previous expression is changed in some way, but the result does not alter the content to the extent that it becomes a new work. The expressions resulting from such modification are generally autonomous in nature (i.e., they do not normally require reference to the prior expression in order to be used or understood). | core:Expression |
| core:embodiment | owl:ObjectProperty | An expression embodied in a manifestation. | core:Manifestation |
| core:realizer | owl:ObjectProperty | An expression linked to its realizer. | owl:Thing |
| core:revision | owl:ObjectProperty | An expression revised in another one. A revision has the intent to alter or update the content of the prior expression, but without changing the content so much that it becomes a new work. | core:Expression |
| core:translation | owl:ObjectProperty | An expression translated in another one. It allows to refer to a literal translation, in which the intent is to render the intellectual content of the previous expression as accurately as possible. | core:Expression |
