Abstract
We introduce some of the data structures proper to NKRL (Narrative Knowledge Representation Language), a language expressly designed for representing, in a standardised way, the semantic content (the ‘meaning’) of complex narrative documents. We will emphasise, in particular, some characteristics of the new version of NKRL, implemented in Java and XML/RDF compliant.
