 Related Person/Corporate Body
Description
Related Person/Corporate Body Name*
Related Role
These categories record the identities and roles of people and
corporate bodies related in any way to the group or item to which an
entry corresponds. Related people and corporate bodies may be
actively involved with the making of a group or item, even though not
in the role of maker or originator. Included are former attributions,
architects under whose supervision an item was made, clients of
structures (if the item is a design and construction document),
patrons of items, publishers, and others. Excluded from this category
are makers of items and administrative origin of groups, since these
are covered in the preceding section, Origin/Maker.
In modern architectural firms, documents are often the result of
collaboration. Therefore, several individuals and the firm itself are
often considered to be responsible for a single document. These
categories make it possible to record the names of these individuals
and firms and their roles.
Example:
For a drawing made by Steven Forman while employed as a
draftsman with Richard Meier and Partners on a project
for which the project architect was Richard Meier:
RESPONSIBILITY DESCRIPTION:
|
Steven Forman, draftsman, for Richard Meier and
Partners
|
ORIGIN/MAKER NAME:
|
Forman, Steven
|
ROLE (BROAD):
|

ROLE (NARROW):

RELATED ROLE:

RELATED PERSON/ CORPORATE BODY NAME:

RELATED ROLE:

This example is typical of design and construction documents, for
which there may be many people and corporate bodies related not only
to a group or item, but also to a subject or built work. In these
cases, the parties should also be named in the appropriate entries in
the Subjects/Built Works authorities, if these files are
maintained.
If a name of a person or corporate body appears on the document
but the role is unknown, the name may be recorded and the related
role expressed as unknown role.
Example:
The following names are inscribed on documents within a group,
though their roles are unknown:

Former or alternative attributions should be recorded, even though
the repository may not view such attributions as accurate. Former
attributions are often known through previous publications, and
researchers will often find names through sources such as these. For
example, a researcher may know a drawing of the Louvre as the work of
Fran\xE7ois Le Vau, but the repository may attribute the drawing
to Fran\xE7ois d'Orbay. The researcher may not be able to
retrieve the drawing if Le Vau is not recorded as a person related to
the item. By recording former attributions, a repository does not
imply acceptance of them; it can even choose not to display the
attributed name in the record. See Related Person/Corporate Body Description for ways in which to qualify
displayed information.

Person/Corporate Body Description
Definition:
A descriptive category in which to identify anyone who is or was
previously thought to have had something to do with originating or
making the group, volume, or item—makers and administrative
origins excluded. The description uses natural language and may
include qualifications and nuances of attribution and explanation of
sequence or institutional context.
Discussion:
This category is analogous to Responsibility Description (under Origin/Maker). It allows for the description of circumstances
surrounding the creation of architectural documents. Retrieval
capability is not sacrificed since the information included is also
recorded in access-point categories.
Former or alternative attributions may be indicated as
follows:
Formerly attributed to may precede the name of the
person(s) once thought to be the maker(s).
Alternatively attributed to may precede the name of the
person(s) either the repository or current research deems to be the
maker(s).
Sources for the attribution may be added in parentheses after the
name.
Example: |
formerly attributed to Donato Bramante (Ferri) |
Conventions used for attributions to anonymous makers may be used
for alternative attributions; see Responsibility
Description.
Examples: |
alternatively attributed to office of Christopher Wren
formerly attributed to Jean-Françcois -Thérèse Chalgrin |

Person/Corporate Body Name*
Definition:
The indexed (inverted order) name of any person or corporate body
involved with originating or making the group or item, such as an
architect who supervised a draftsman's work, or a client for a set of
drawings.
Discussion:
This category should be authority-controlled to allow for the
retrieval of specific names.
Examples: |

RELATED PERSON/CORPORATE BODY DESCRIPTION: |

Role
Definition:
The activity or area of responsibility of the person or corporate
body related to the group or item.
Discussion:
This category records the nature of the relationship between
a person or corporate body and a group, volume, or item. Makers
of items and administrative origins of groups are excluded
because they are recorded in the separate categories Role
(Broad), Role(Narrow), and Responsibility Description (under
Origin/Maker).
Terminology:
When using the AAT, terms may be taken from the People (HG)
and Organizations (HN) hierarchies. [1]
Examples: |
architects
builders
designers
sculptors
draftsmen (for former attributions)
clients
engineers
inscribers
masters
planners
