The document outlines the steps to take for a comparative study: 1) Select comparable artifacts from different time periods, such as texts from 1728 and 1738. 2) Ensure the artifacts are comparable by examining their textual relationship and precedents. 3) Develop a method for analysis, such as textual analysis of sampled texts, and select an achievable scope like trigonometry. 4) Execute the comparison, making adjustments as needed to address problems in comparability between artifacts and create clean digital versions for analysis.
