Introduction

This document describes a narrow subset of the Text Encoding Initiative's P5 Guidelines for Electronic Text Encoding and Interchange as used by the research project Stories for all time: The Icelandic fornaldarsögur (FASNL), based at Nordisk Forskningsinstitut (NFI), a research institute within the Faculty of Humanities at the University of Copenhagen.

Compared to other TEI customisations (e.g. the ENRICH Schema), this customisation is considerably more data-centric, largely owing to the project's focus on quantitative codicology. Many aspects of manuscripts which would otherwise be included in an XML description are omitted here; in many cases, a fuller record may be available from other sources, e.g. the handrit.is union catalogue.

The format is formally expressed by a schema which is generated from the XML source of these guidelines. It is a conformant subset of Release 2.9.1 of the Text Encoding Initiative's Guidelines for Electronic Text Encoding and Interchange (TEI P5). The schema defined by this document is available in RELAX NG at the following location: http://fasnl.ku.dk/fasnl/xml/FASNL_msDesc.rnc.

The overall structure of a TEI-conformant XML document can be summarised as follows:
<TEI xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0">
 <teiHeader>
<!-- metadata describing the manuscript -->
 </teiHeader>
 <facsimile>
<!-- (optional) metadata describing, and links to, digital images of the manuscript -->
 </facsimile>
 <text>
<!-- (optional) transcription of the manuscript -->
 </text>
</TEI>
Note that although facsimile and text are both optional, one of them must be present.

The present document pertains only to the first of these aspects, manuscript description, in part using material derived from the P5 release of the TEI Guidelines.

1 Manuscript description metadata

Each manuscript must be described within the teiHeader element of a TEI-conformant document, as specified in the TEI Guidelines, chapter 2. For FASNL project purposes, the following components of the TEI Header must be provided, and must conform to the constraints specified here.

The following example shows the minimal required structure:
<teiHeader>
 <fileDesc>
  <titleStmt>
   <title>[Shelfmark]</title>
  </titleStmt>
  <publicationStmt>
   <availability status="free">
    <licence target="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/">Distributed by
         the University of Copenhagen under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike
         3.0 Unported License.</licence>
   </availability>
   <authority>Nordisk Forskningsinstitut, Københavns Universitet</authority>
  </publicationStmt>
  <sourceDesc>
   <msDesc xml:id="examplexml:lang="en">
<!-- [full manuscript description ]-->
   </msDesc>
  </sourceDesc>
 </fileDesc>
 <revisionDesc>
  <change when="2016-01-01who="#ABC">
<!-- [revision information] -->
  </change>
 </revisionDesc>
</teiHeader>

Taking these in turn:

The msDesc element is used to provide detailed information about a single manuscript. For FASNL purposes, this must carry the attributes mentioned above, to supply a unique internal identifier for the manuscript, and to specify the language of its description respectively.

The value for xml:id must be derived from the shelfmark, so as to create a valid QName. In the system we employ in the project, the description of a manuscript with the shelfmark AM 11 fol. would have as its id AM02-0011-en while GKS 2450 4to would be GKS04-2450-en.

The value for xml:lang, as elsewhere, must be supplied in the form of a valid language identifier (see below). Note that xml:lang does not indicate the language of the manuscript itself; this information is encoded under textLang, as described below (1.2.2.3 textLang).

The msDesc element has the following component elements, each of which is further described in the remainder of this section.

The first four of these are mandatory; the fifth is optional. msPart should only be used for composite manuscripts, i.e. manuscripts comprising two or more originally distinct manuscript parts now kept together as a unit, and msFrag for scattered manuscripts, i.e. manuscripts one or more parts of which have become separated from the original codex and may now be kept in different repositories.

1.1 The manuscript identifier (<msIdentifier>)

The msIdentifier element provides an unambiguous means of uniquely identifying a particular manuscript. This must be done in a structured way, by providing information about the holding institution and call number, shelfmark or other identifier used to indicate its location within that institution.

  • msIdentifier (manuscript identifier) contains the information required to identify the manuscript being described.

The following elements are used within msIdentifier to identify a manuscript and its holding institution:

  • repository contains the name of a repository within which manuscripts are stored, possibly forming part of an institution.
  • idno (identifier) supplies any form of identifier used to identify some object, such as a bibliographic item, a person, a title, an organization, etc. in a standardized way.
  • altIdentifier (alternative identifier) contains an alternative or former structured identifier used for a manuscript, such as a former catalogue number.

repository and idno are both mandatory within the msIdentifier. altIdentifier is optional.

This example shows the minimal required structure of msIdentifier:
<msIdentifier>
 <repository ref="#LBS">Landsbókasafn</repository>
 <idno>JS 8 fol.</idno>
</msIdentifier>

repository is a member of the attribute class att.canonical, and thus can use the attribute ref to reference a single standardised source of information about the entity being named. repository may therefore be empty, since all details about the repository, including its name and location, can be recorded in the authority file designated for this purpose. This authority file is described in another section of this document (2.3 Repositories). The value of the ref attribute points to a record in the authority file.

This example points to a record having the xml:id AMIS in the repository authority file. Although it is not an error to supply a textual description of the repository as shown here, it should nonetheless be avoided to prevent redundancy. A correctly configured formatting application will ignore the content of repository and retrieve the repository information from the authority file.
<repository ref="#AMIS">Arnamagnæan Collection, Reykjavík</repository>

The idno element is mandatory, and must contain the shelfmark of the manuscript. Manuscript repositories will usually have a preferred form of citation for their manuscript shelfmarks, including rules about punctuation, spacing, abbreviations etc., which should ideally be adhered to.

It is possible to add the altIdentifier element in order to reference to a former shelfmark or a different form of identification, e.g. by nickname. The type of alternative Identifier is indicated using the type. Possible values are:
former_shelfmark
the alternative Identifier is a former shelfmark
nickname
the alternative Identifier is a nickname
<msIdentifier>
 <repository ref="#AMIS"/>
 <idno>GKS 1005 fol.</idno>
 <altIdentifier type="nickname">
  <idno>Flateyjarbók</idno>
 </altIdentifier>
</msIdentifier>

1.2 Manuscript contents (<msContents>)

The msContents element is used to describe the intellectual content of a manuscript or manuscript part. It comprises a single titlePage element with an ana attribute, followed by a series of msItem elements, each of which provides a more detailed description of a single item contained within the manuscript.

  • msContents (manuscript contents) describes the intellectual content of a manuscript or manuscript part, either as a series of paragraphs or as a series of structured manuscript items.
This example shows the content model of msContents:
<msContents>
 <titlePage ana="#later"/>
 <msItem class="fasn="1">
<!-- [content of msItem] -->
 </msItem>
 <msItem class="riddn="2">
<!-- [content of msItem] -->
 </msItem>
<!-- [further msItem elements as necessary] -->
</msContents>

1.2.1 <titlePage>

titlePage can be used to indicate the presence or absence of a title page in a manuscript; if a title page is present, you should indicate whether the title page is contemporaneous with the rest of the manuscript or was added later.

  • titlePage (title page) contains the title page of a text, appearing within the front or back matter.
    ana(analysis) indicates one or more elements containing interpretations of the element on which the ana attribute appears.

The ana attribute is required on titlePage and must take one of the following values:

no
The is no title page present in the manuscript.
contemporary
A title page is present and it is contemporaneous with the rest of the manuscript.
later
A title page is present and has been added at some time after the manuscript's creation.
Example of a manuscript without a title page:
<titlePage ana="#no"/>
Example of a manuscript with a title page which is contemporary with the rest of the manuscript:
<titlePage ana="#contemporary"/>
The text on the title page can be transcribed, using one or more titlePart elements, with type attributes as necessary.
<titlePage ana="#contemporary">
 <titlePart type="main">Historien om Rolf Krage, Konge i Danmark</titlePart>
 <titlePart type="sub">Af det Islandske sprog, udsat paa dansk.</titlePart>
</titlePage>

1.2.2 <msItem>

Each item in a manuscript or manuscript part must be described within a distinct msItem, and must be classified using the class attribute and numbered using the n attribute. Another attribute, defective, is optional. A valid manuscript description must contain at least one msItem. Nesting of msItem elements is permitted where appropriate.

  • msItem (manuscript item) describes an individual work or item within the intellectual content of a manuscript or manuscript part.
    n(number) gives a number (or other label) for an element, which is not necessarily unique within the document.
    classidentifies the text types or classifications applicable to this item by pointing to other elements or resources defining the classification concerned. Suggested values include: 1] fas; 2] ridd; 3] edd; 4] isl; 5] kvad; 6] kon; 7] islt; 8] rimur; 9] forns; 10] avint; 11] konth; 12] almb; 13] riddst
    defective [att.msExcerpt]indicates whether the passage being quoted is defective, i.e. incomplete through loss or damage.

The value of the class attribute should specify the identifier used for the appropriate text classification within a taxonomy element, which thus functions as an authority file for text types, and is described in another section of this document (2.4 Text classes).

The defective attribute is optional and should only be used to indicate that a text is incomplete because of loss or damage. If defective is used, it must carry the value true. The absence of defective from an msItem element is understood to indicate that the item in question is not defective, i.e. complete.

This example shows the encoding of a manuscript item which belongs to the text class fornaldarsögur. The value of class points to a record in classDecl having the xml:id value fas. The example also shows a value of 1 on the attribute n, indicating that this is the first item in the manuscript. Further, the item in question is marked as being incomplete by the use of the defective attribute.
<msItem class="fasdefective="truen="1">
 <locus from="1r:1to="8v:17"/>
 <title ref="#snfdsvtype="uniform">Sögubrot af nokkrum fornkonungum í Dana og
   Svía veldi</title>
</msItem>
The ref attribute should be used when the item in question is a fornaldarsaga; see below 1.2.2.2 title.
This example demonstrates the method for nesting msItem elements, which is useful in cases such as this, where a saga comprises several individual þættir. The value of the n attribute on the nested msItem elements indicates the depth of nesting.
<msItem class="riddn="2">
 <locus from="23rto="80r"/>
 <title type="uniform">Mágus saga jarls</title>
 <msItem class="riddn="2.1">
  <title type="uniform">Hrólfs þáttur skuggafífls</title>
 </msItem>
 <msItem class="riddn="2.2">
  <title type="uniform">Vilhjálms þáttur Laissonar</title>
 </msItem>
 <msItem class="riddn="2.3">
  <title type="uniform">Geirarðs þáttur frækna</title>
 </msItem>
</msItem>

1.2.2.1 <locus>

A locus element should be included within msItem in order to specify the location (or locations) of that item within the manuscript being described.

  • locus defines a location within a manuscript or manuscript part, usually as a (possibly discontinuous) sequence of folio references.
    fromspecifies the starting point of the location in a normalized form, typically a page number.
    tospecifies the end-point of the location in a normalized form, typically as a page number.

Start and end points must be, at a minimum, specified as folios (e.g. 1r, 45r, 78v). If desired, it is possible to supplement this information with line numbers of one or both of the start and end points of the text. If provided, line numbers must be separated from the folio by a colon character, as shown in the example below.

Although not required to be empty, the content of the locus element should ideally be omitted; a formatting application is expected to be able to construct it automatically from the values of the from and to attributes.

This example shows the encoding of a manuscript item which begins on folio 3 verso and ends on folio 17 recto:
<locus from="3vto="17r"/>
As mentioned, it is also possible, but generally not necessary, to write out the range of folios as the content of the element:
<locus from="3vto="17r">f. 3v-17r</locus>
This example shows the encoding of a manuscript item which begins on line 1 of folio 1 recto and ends on line 17 of folio 8 verso.
<locus from="1r:1to="8v:17"/>

1.2.2.2 <title>

The title element contains the title of the individual manuscript item and is required to appear at least once (multiple titles are possible). This title should be provided in a uniform format, that is, the standardised title by which the work is generally known. The form of the title found in the manuscript itself can also be given using the rubric or finalRubric elements; see below 1.2.2.4 rubric, incipit, explicit and finalRubric.

  • title contains a title for any kind of work.
    typeclassifies the title according to some convenient typology.
    ref(reference) provides an explicit means of locating a full definition or identity for the entity being named by means of one or more URIs.

The indication of the type of title is given by the type attribute, which is required and must take one of the following values:

uniform
The title given is a uniform title, i.e. the standard or canonical title by which an individual work is known in e.g. Anonymous classics: a list of uniform headings for European literatures, published by the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions.
supplied
The title is given is a general description of the work in question rather than a standard title. supplied should be used when it is not possible to assign a uniform title, for example if there is no corresponding entry in the reference literature or provided in a manuscript catalogue.
parallel
An alternative title by which the work is also known.
In this example, most catalogues give the title of the item as Þjalar Jóns saga but it is also known as Jóns saga Svipdagssonar.
<title type="uniform">Þjalar Jóns saga</title>
<title type="parallel">Jóns saga Svipdagssonar</title>
In this example, the reference sources do not provide a corresponding uniform title. The title is therefore given as written in the manuscript catalogue, and the value of type is supplied.
<title type="supplied">Prayer</title>

As mentioned above, the ref attribute on title must be used when the item in question is a fornaldarsaga. The abbreviations for the various sagas are as follows:

#asb
Áns saga bogsveigis
#ask
Ásmundar saga kappabana

1.2.2.3 <textLang>

  • textLang (text language) describes the languages and writing systems identified within the bibliographic work being described, rather than its description.
    mainLang(main language) supplies a code which identifies the chief language used in the bibliographic work.
    otherLangs(other languages) one or more codes identifying any other languages used in the bibliographic work.

textLang is required to indicate the language of the text within msItem. The mainLang attribute is used to encode the predominant language of a text. In cases where a manuscript is written in more than one language, use otherLangs to encoding the additional languages. Abbreviations for each language are taken from the ISO 639-1 codes. All those used have been hard-wired into the schema.

In the following example, the manuscript is principally in Icelandic but with some material in Latin and German:
<textLang mainLang="isotherLangs="la de"/>
Note: The standard code for Old Norse-Icelandic is non, which can be found in the expanded list of ISO 639-2 codes. For the purposes of this project, however, it is unnecessary to distinguish between Old and Modern Icelandic, so is should be used for both.

1.2.2.4 <rubric>, <incipit>, <explicit> and <finalRubric>

  • rubric contains the text of any rubric or heading attached to a particular manuscript item, that is, a string of words through which a manuscript signals the beginning of a text division, often with an assertion as to its author and title, which is in some way set off from the text itself, usually in red ink, or by use of different size or type of script, or some other such visual device.
  • incipit contains the incipit of a manuscript item, that is the opening words of the text proper, exclusive of any rubric which might precede it, of sufficient length to identify the work uniquely; such incipits were, in former times, frequently used a means of reference to a work, in place of a title.
  • explicit contains the explicit of a manuscript item, that is, the closing words of the text proper, exclusive of any rubric or colophon which might follow it.
  • finalRubric contains the string of words that denotes the end of a text division, often with an assertion as to its author and title, usually set off from the text itself by red ink, by a different size or type of script, or by some other such visual device.
  • colophon contains the colophon of a manuscript item: that is, a statement providing information regarding the date, place, agency, or reason for production of the manuscript.

All of these elements are optional. rubric is used to encode headings in the text. Usually these are or contain some form of title and are frequently written in a larger, more ornate script than the rest of the text. There may be more than one rubric, in which case multiple rubric elements may be used. incipit and explicit encode the first and last words of a text respectively and are sometimes used to identify a text when no title is given. Usually these are five to ten words long, but this will vary depending on the text; ideally they should form a complete syntactic unit. finalRubric should be used when the last words of the text give its title, as in the example below. colophon is used where the scribe provides information on himself or the place, date or circumstaces under which the text was copied.

<rubric>Sagann af Eireke Rauda</rubric>
<incipit>Olafur heet k<ex>on</ex>ung<ex>ur</ex> er kallaþ<ex>ur</ex> var Oleyfur
hvyte</incipit>
<finalRubric>og end<ex>ar</ex> hier so sauguna af Eireke hinum rauda</finalRubric>
Note that transcriptions from the text should be given in semi-diplomatic form, i.e. preserving the orthography of the original as much as possible, but with expanded abbreviations, where the expansions are clearly marked using, as a minimum, the ex element.
<rubric>Hervarar þättur hin<ex>n</ex> gamle fin<ex>n</ex>st so skrifadur sem hier
epter fÿlger.</rubric>
The unexpanded forms can also be given, using am and ex within choice:
<rubric>Hervarar þättur hin<choice>
  <ex>n</ex>
  <am>̅</am>
 </choice> gamle
fin<choice>
  <ex>n</ex>
  <am>̅</am>
 </choice>st so skrifadur sem hier epter
fÿlger.</rubric>
The elements abbr and expan can also be used, although this results in markup which is unnecessarily heavy.
<rubric>Hervarar þättur
<choice>
  <expan>hin<ex>n</ex>
  </expan>
  <abbr>hin<am>̅</am>
  </abbr>
 </choice>
gamle
<choice>
  <expan>fin<ex>n</ex>st</expan>
  <abbr>fin<ab>̅</ab>st</abbr>
 </choice> so
skrifadur sem hier epter fÿlger.</rubric>

For more information on recommended transcription practice see the project's transcription guidelines.

1.2.2.5 <filiation>

The filiation element is a container for listing one or more manuscripts which are related to the manuscript described by the current record. Each of these manuscript relations is expressed using ref, as explained below.

  • filiation contains information concerning the manuscript's filiation, i.e. its relationship to other surviving manuscripts of the same text, its protographs, antigraphs and apographs.
  • ref (reference) defines a reference to another location, possibly modified by additional text or comment.
    type [att.typed]characterizes the element in some sense, using any convenient classification scheme or typology.
    target [att.pointing]specifies the destination of the reference by supplying one or more URI References
    ana(analysis) indicates one or more elements containing interpretations of the element on which the ana attribute appears.

Each ref child of filiation is required to carry the three attributes type, target and ana.

The value of type is can be either ms (manuscript) or book. The value of target is a list of one or more URI pointers to the xml:id of a manuscript record or records. The value of ana is one of the three following values:

protograph
The manuscript described in the current record derives from or is of the same tradition as the manuscript referenced by target but is not a direct copy of it.
antigraph
The manuscript described in the current record is a direct copy of the manuscript referenced by target.
apograph
The manuscript referenced by target is a direct copy of the manuscript described in the current record.

In the following example, the manuscript being described is derived from, but is not a direct copy of, MS 9999, and is also the source from which the MS 1111 was copied:
<filiation>
 <ref ana="#apographtarget="#MS_1111"
  type="ms"/>

 <ref ana="#protographtarget="#MS_9999"
  type="ms"/>

</filiation>

1.2.2.6 <note>

  • note contains a note or annotation.

In some cases, a cataloguer may wish to include information on a manuscript item which does not fit elsewhere. note should be used for this purpose. The note element is optional.

Example:
<note>This is the shorter version of the saga, comprising only 11 chapters rather
than the usual 14.</note>

1.3 Physical description (<physDesc>)

  • physDesc (physical description) contains a full physical description of a manuscript or manuscript part, optionally subdivided using more specialized elements from the model.physDescPart class.

Under the general heading ‘physical description’ we subsume a large number of elements which are useful for the codicological description of a given manuscript. These include:

The physDesc element acts as a container for a specific structure comprised of the specialised elements described in the remainder of this section, each of which itself requires a very precise content model, and may also require certain specific attributes, as the following example demonstrates:
<physDesc>
 <objectDesc form="codex">
  <supportDesc material="chart">
   <support>
    <num type="front-flyleafvalue="2"/>
    <num type="book-blockvalue="367"/>

     ornamentation.</decoNote>
 </decoDesc>
 <additions ana="#high">

     left blank.</p>
 </additions>
 <bindingDesc>
  <binding ana="#plaincontemporary="true">
   <p>The binding is not in particularly good condition; it is covered in a vellum
       leaf containing texts in Latin, one of them a Psalm of David. </p>
  </binding>
 </bindingDesc>
</physDesc>

1.3.1 Object description (<objectDesc>)

The objectDesc element is used to group together those parts of the physical description which relate specifically to the text-bearing object, its format, constitution, layout etc.

  • objectDesc contains a description of the physical components making up the object which is being described.
    forma short project-specific name identifying the physical form of the carrier, for example as a codex, roll, fragment, partial leaf, cutting etc.

The form attribute is used to indicate the specific type of text-bearing object being described. It is required and its value must be one of the following:

codex
A bound codex
leaf
A loose leaf
scroll
A scroll
other
Any other format

The objectDesc element has two parts: a description of the support (1.3.1.1 Support description (supportDesc)), i.e. the physical carrier on which the text is inscribed, and a description of the layout 1.3.1.2 Layout description (layoutDesc), i.e. the way text is organised on the page (or other surface).

1.3.1.1 Support description (<supportDesc>)

  • supportDesc (support description) groups elements describing the physical support for the written part of a manuscript.
    materiala short project-defined name for the material composing the majority of the support

The material attribute on supportDesc is used briefly to summarise the materials used for the support. For FASNL project purposes, it must have one of the following values:

perg
Parchment
chart
Paper
mixed
A combination of materials
unknown
Support material unknown
1.3.1.1.1 <support>

The support element groups together information about the physical carrier.

  • support contains a description of the materials etc. which make up the physical support for the written part of a manuscript.
The following example shows the required structure of objectDesc and its child elements:
<objectDesc form="codex">
 <supportDesc material="chart">
  <support>
   <num type="front-flyleafvalue="4"/>
   <num type="book-blockvalue="206"/>
   <num type="back-flyleafvalue="6"/>
   <dimensions>
    <height quantity="167unit="mm"/>
    <width quantity="132unit="mm"/>
   </dimensions>
   <watermark ana="#yes"/>
  </support>
 </supportDesc>
</objectDesc>
1.3.1.1.1.1 <num>

The num element is used under support to indicate the number of leaves present in a manuscript.

  • num (number) contains a number, written in any form.
    typeindicates the type of numeric value.
    valuesupplies the value of the number in standard form.

The value of the type attribute must be one of the following:

front-flyleaf
Flyleaves which come before the main book block.
book-block
The assemblage of leaves making up the main part of the manuscript.
back-flyleaf
Flyleaves which come after the main book block.

At least one and no more than three num elements must be present. In the case of a single num element, the type attribute must carry the value book-block. If flyleaves are present either at the front or back of the manuscript, further num elements may be used as necessary.

1.3.1.1.1.2 <dimensions>

dimensions as a child of support records the physical size of a manuscript's support.

Leaf dimensions are encoded using two child elements, height and width, each of which must carry a unit attribute. The measured values for height and width of a manuscript's support should be encoded in one of two ways:

  • Where leaf size is consistent throughout the entire manuscript, the quantity attribute is used.
  • If leaf size varies, the attributes atLeast and atMost should be used to provide minimum and maximum values, respectively.
  • height contains a measurement measured along the axis at right angles to the bottom of the written surface, i.e. parallel to the spine for a codex or book.
    atLeast [att.ranging]gives a minimum estimated value for the approximate measurement.
    atMost [att.ranging]gives a maximum estimated value for the approximate measurement.
    quantity [att.dimensions]specifies the length in the units specified
    unit [att.dimensions]names the unit used for the measurement
  • width contains a measurement measured along the axis parallel to the bottom of the written surface, i.e. perpendicular to the spine of a book or codex.
    atLeast [att.ranging]gives a minimum estimated value for the approximate measurement.
    atMost [att.ranging]gives a maximum estimated value for the approximate measurement.
    quantity [att.dimensions]specifies the length in the units specified
    unit [att.dimensions]names the unit used for the measurement
1.3.1.1.1.3 <watermark>

watermark is required, and is used solely to record either the presence or absence of a watermark. No further information about a watermark is necessary.

  • watermark contains a word or phrase describing a watermark or similar device.
    ana(analysis) Indicates the presence or absence of a watermark.

The ana attribute is required and must take one of the following values:

no
No watermarks are visible in the manuscript.
yes
One or more watermarks are visible.

Note that the absence of the watermark element in this context should not be interpreted as equal to an ana value of no. For obvious reasons the watermark element will only be present in cases where the support is paper (or mixed).

1.3.1.1.2 <foliation>

The foliation element may be used to indicate the scheme, medium or location of folio, page or column numbers written in the manuscript.

  • foliation describes the numbering system or systems used to count the leaves or pages in a codex.
    ana(analysis) indicates one or more elements containing interpretations of the element on which the ana attribute appears.

The ana attribute on foliation is used to encode two separate but related pieces of information: when the manuscript was foliated and how. The value of ana must be a whitespace-separated sequence of two of the following:

col
The manuscript is columnated, i.e. numbered by column.
contemporary
Foliation is contemporary with the manuscript.
fol
The manuscript is foliated, i.e. numbered by folio.
later
Foliation occurred some time after the manuscript was produced.
no
Manuscript is not foliated.
pag
The manuscript is paginated, i.e. numbered by page.

Note that in the case of a manuscript which has not been foliated, the single value no can be used.

The following example shows the encoding of foliation for a manuscript which was foliated by folio at the time of its creation:

<foliation ana="#contemporary fol"/>

The following example shows the encoding of foliation for a manuscript is not foliated:

<foliation ana="#no"/>

Where there is multiple foliation, e.g. original columnation and later foliation, more than one foliation element should be used.

<foliation ana="#contemporary col"/>
<foliation ana="#later fol"/>

As in other cases, more information can be provided within the element:

<foliation ana="#contemporary col">Original columnation.</foliation>
<foliation ana="#later fol">Foliated in red ink in the upper right-hand corner of
the recto side by Kr. Kålund.</foliation>
1.3.1.1.3 <condition>
  • condition contains a description of the physical condition of the manuscript.
    ana(analysis) indicates one or more elements containing interpretations of the element on which the ana attribute appears.

The condition element is used to summarise the overall physical state of a manuscript. Physical state is given as a single value carried by the ana attribute. This must be one of the following three values:

poor
Manuscript condition is fairly bad: some damage to pages and binding.
average
Manuscript condition is average.
good
Manuscript condition is relatively good: structural integrity is sound, with only minor signs of wear.

Here again, it is also possible to provide a prose description of a manuscript's condition using the condition element, but it is not required.

1.3.1.2 Layout description (<layoutDesc>)

The second part of objectDesc is the layoutDesc element, which is used to describe and document the mise-en-page of the manuscript, that is the way in which text is arranged on the page, specifying the number of written lines and columns per page, the number of words per line and the size of the written area.

  • layoutDesc (layout description) collects the set of layout descriptions applicable to a manuscript.

layoutDesc has a very specific content model, as illustrated by the following example:

<layoutDesc>
 <layout ana="#verse-prosecolumns="1"
  writtenLines="24 30">

  <num atLeast="16atMost="20type="wpl"/>
  <dimensions type="written">
   <height quantity="130unit="mm"/>
   <width quantity="175unit="mm"/>
  </dimensions>
 </layout>
</layoutDesc>
1.3.1.2.1 <layout>
  • layout describes how text is laid out on the page, including information about any ruling, pricking, or other evidence of page-preparation techniques.
    ana(analysis) indicates one or more elements containing interpretations of the element on which the ana attribute appears.
    columnsspecifies the number of columns per page
    writtenLinesspecifies the number of written lines per column

The ana attribute on layout is optional. It should be used when a manuscript's text includes verses (as is frequently the case with the fornaldarsögur). The attribute's values distinguish between two methods of writing verses: distinct from the prose, i.e. in verse lines, or in-line, i.e. as if it were prose. As such, ana and may take one of the following values, where appropriate:

verse-separate
Verses are present and are written separately from the prose.
verse-prose
Verses are present and are written in-line with the flow of the prose.
unknown
It has not been determined how verses are written.

Note that as ana is optional, its absence will be taken to imply that there are no verses anywhere in the manuscript.

The columns attribute is required, and takes a single integer as its value which indicates the number of columns per manuscript page. Note that even if there is only one column present, as is the case with most manuscripts, the columns attribute is still required.

The writtenLines attribute is also required and is used for encoding the number of written lines per page. This information may expressed as either a single integer, in the case of a manuscript containing the same number of written lines on each page, or as a whitespace-separated sequence of two integers if the number of written lines varies. In the above example, the number of written lines in the manuscript ranges from 24 to 30.

1.3.1.2.1.1 <num>

In the context of layout, the num element is used to encode the number of words per line in the manuscript.

  • num (number) contains a number, written in any form.
    typeindicates the type of numeric value.
    atLeast [att.ranging]gives a minimum estimated value for the approximate measurement.
    atMost [att.ranging]gives a maximum estimated value for the approximate measurement.

All three of type, atLeast and atMost are required to be present on num in this context. The value of type must always be wpl (words per line). The atLeast and atMost attributes encode the lowest and highest number of words per line, respectively. Three pages are chosen at random in the manuscript, and word counts are made on those three pages, taking three or four lines from each. In the unlikely event that all lines sampled contain the same number of words, the atLeast and atMost attributes will both have the same value; otherwise the values will represent the highest and lowest number of those sampled.

1.3.1.2.1.2 <dimensions>
  • dimensions contains a dimensional specification.
    typeindicates which aspect of the object is being measured.

As a child of layoutDesc, dimensions is a container element used to encode the height and width of the written area of the page. To this end, the type attribute is required, and must always carry the value written.

The written area should measured from the tops of the ascenders of the first written line to the base line of the last written line, and from the stem of the first letter to the end of the bowl or bar of the last letter. Flourished squiggles, tails and elongated ascenders and descenders are not included. If the written area has been marked by pencil, pen or drypoint these marks can be used for measurements.

The height and width of the written area are encoded using the height and width elements as children of dimensions. The measured values for height and width of the written area should be encoded in one of two ways:

  • Where written area is consistent throughout the entire manuscript, the quantity attribute is used.
  • If the size of the written area varies, the attributes atLeast and atMost should be used to provide minimum and maximum values, respectively.
  • height contains a measurement measured along the axis at right angles to the bottom of the written surface, i.e. parallel to the spine for a codex or book.
    unit [att.dimensions]names the unit used for the measurement
    quantity [att.dimensions]specifies the length in the units specified
    atLeast [att.ranging]gives a minimum estimated value for the approximate measurement.
    atMost [att.ranging]gives a maximum estimated value for the approximate measurement.
  • width contains a measurement measured along the axis parallel to the bottom of the written surface, i.e. perpendicular to the spine of a book or codex.
    unit [att.dimensions]names the unit used for the measurement
    quantity [att.dimensions]specifies the length in the units specified
    atLeast [att.ranging]gives a minimum estimated value for the approximate measurement.
    atMost [att.ranging]gives a maximum estimated value for the approximate measurement.

On both the height and width elements, the unit and quantity attributes are required. Measurements are expressed in millimetres, and as such the value of unit will always be mm. The quantity attribute is an integer expressing the number of millimetres. Measurements should be rounded to the nearest millimetre.

Note: dimensions can be used twice in the case of a manuscript with two (or more) scribes with major scope and differing page dimensions (e.g. Papp 8vo 7).

1.3.2 Hand description (<handDesc>)

  • handDesc (description of hands) contains a description of all the different kinds of writing used in a manuscript.
    handsspecifies the number of distinct hands identified within the manuscript
  • handNote (note on hand) describes a particular style or hand distinguished within a manuscript.
    scriptcharacterizes the particular script or writing style used by this hand, for example secretary, copperplate, Chancery, Italian, etc. Sample values include: 1] carolingian; 2] protogothic; 3] textualis; 4] cursiva; 5] hybrida; 6] semihybrida; 7] hum cursiva; 8] fractura; 9] chancery fractura; 10] chancery; 11] kurrent; 12] early kurrent; 13] late kurrent; 14] unknown
The handDesc element and its descendant element handNote (see below) are used to encode, in a highly structured manner, characteristics of the writing observed in a manuscript, as in the following example:
<handDesc hands="2">
 <handNote scope="major"
  scribeRef="#scribe1script="textualis"/>

 <handNote scope="minor"
  scribeRef="#scribe2script="textualis"/>

</handDesc>

The hands attribute on handDesc carries an integer value which indicates the number of identifiable hands in the manuscript. If it apparent that more than one hand is present, but it is not possible to arrive at a definitive determination of the exact number of hands, then the value 999 should be used. This is interpreted as meaning 'several hands', with an implied uncertainly as to the precise number.

A handNote element is required for each of the identifiable hands in the manuscript. Each handNote element should have the three attributes scribeRef, scope and script.

The scribeRef attribute carries a reference code which points to a full description of the scribe in an authority file for persons (described in a later section - 2.1 Persons). If the name of a scribe is known but he can nevertheless not be identified with certainty, the value "ambig" is used to indicate ambiguity. In that case it is mandatory to supply the name and whatever information available in prose.

The scope attribute indicates the extent to which the hand is used in the manuscript and may take one of three values:

sole
only this hand is found throughout the manuscript
major
this hand writes most of the manuscript
minor
this hand appears only occasionally in the manuscript

The script attribute describes the type of script used by the hand. If a scribe uses more than one script, the dominant script type is chosen as value of script. Other script types can be specified in prose. For the purposes of this project the allowable values for script are as follows:

carolingian
protogothic
textualis
cursiva
hybrida
semihybrida
hum cursiva
fractura
chancery fractura
chancery
kurrent
unknown

If desired, it it even possible to distinguish between:

early kurrent
late kurrent

1.3.3 Decoration description (<decoDesc>)

  • decoDesc (decoration description) contains a description of the decoration of a manuscript, either as a sequence of paragraphs, or as a sequence of topically organized decoNote elements.
    ana(analysis) indicates one or more elements containing interpretations of the element on which the ana attribute appears.
  • decoNote (note on decoration) contains a note describing either a decorative component of a manuscript, or a fairly homogenous class of such components.
    typecharacterizes the element in some sense, using any convenient classification scheme or typology.

The decoDesc element and its child element decoNote (see below) are used to encode, in a highly structured manner, characteristics of the decoration found in a manuscript.

The ana attribute on decoDesc is required and carries a value which indicates the relative level of decoration in the manuscript. The value of ana must be one of the following:

no
the manuscript has no decoration
low
there is very little decoration in the manuscript
medium
the manuscript is moderately decorated
high
the manuscript is highly decorated
The following example demonstrates how to encode and manuscript having no decoration:
<decoDesc ana="#no"/>

For each type of decoration in the manuscript, a decoNote element can be used. The type attribute on decoNote is required, and should describe the type of decoration present. The allowable values for type are as follows:

border
diagram
frieze
illustration
initial
map
marginal
miniature
mixed
other
paratext
printmark
publishmark
secondary
vignette
unspecified

If desired, a prose description of the decoration may also be provided as content of the decoNote element, as in the following example, but this is not required.

<decoDesc ana="#medium">
 <decoNote type="initials">Some initials in red.</decoNote>
 <decoNote type="vignette">A tailpiece.</decoNote>
</decoDesc>

1.3.4 <additions>

  • additions contains a description of any significant additions found within a manuscript, such as marginalia or other annotations.
    ana(analysis) indicates one or more elements containing interpretations of the element on which the ana attribute appears.

The additions element is used to encode information about any additions to the text, in particular marginalia.

The ana attribute on additions is required and carries a value which indicates the relative level of additions in the manuscript. The value of ana must be one of the following:

no
the manuscript has no additions
low
there are very few additions in the manuscript
medium
the manuscript has a moderate number of additions
high
the manuscript has a high number of additions
If desired, a description of the additions may be provided using the standard phrase-level element p, as shown in the following example:
<additions ana="#low">
 <p>Text on leaves on the inner side of both front- and back-boards.</p>
</additions>
It is also possible, although not required, to provide a much more detailed description of additions made to the manuscript, as shown in the following example:
<additions ana="#medium">
 <p>Pen trials, scribbles, words and sentences have been added to empty spaces or
   blank pages between items as well as in the margins. Some of these are of
   importance as they contain the names of previous owners, e.g. <q>Marteinn
     Jónsson 12/12 60</q> (<locus from="1rto="1r"/>) and <q>Björn Sigurðsson: Með
     eigin hendi</q> (<locus from="24rto="24r"/>).</p>
 <p>At the end of Hrólfs saga Gautrekssonar <locus from="92vrto="92v"/> written
   in different hand: <q>G G Amen</q>.</p>
 <p>At the end of Nikulás saga leikara (<locus from="131vto="131v"/>) is written:
 <q>Gudrun Bjorns dotter á bókina</q>.</p>
</additions>

1.3.5 Binding description (<bindingDesc>)

  • bindingDesc (binding description) describes the present and former bindings of a manuscript, either as a series of paragraphs or as a series of distinct binding elements, one for each binding of the manuscript.
  • binding contains a description of one binding, i.e. type of covering, boards, etc. applied to a manuscript.
    ana(analysis) indicates one or more elements containing interpretations of the element on which the ana attribute appears.
    contemporaryspecifies whether or not the binding is contemporary with the majority of its contents

The ana attribute on binding is required and is used to encode information about the manuscript binding and its level of decoration. It must take one of the following values:

plain
a plain binding with no decoration
moderate
the binding is moderately decorated
decorative
the binding is highly decorated; special attention has been invested in imparting pleasing aesthetic characteristics to the binding

The contemporary attribute is also required on binding, and carries a Boolean value, i.e. true or false, to indicate whether or not the binding is contemporaneous with the manuscript.

If desired, it is possible to supplement the required markup described above with a prose description of the binding, using standard phrase-level elements such as p.

The following example demonstrates encoding information about a plain binding contemporary with the manuscript's production:
<bindingDesc>
 <binding ana="#plaincontemporary="true">
  <p>Plain leather cover without boards.</p>
 </binding>
</bindingDesc>
The following example encodes information about a moderately-decorated binding added as a replacement to the original binding at some later date:
<bindingDesc>
 <binding ana="#moderate"
  contemporary="false">

  <p>Library binding, leather spine and corners.</p>
 </binding>
</bindingDesc>

1.4 History

1.4.1 <origin>

  • origin contains any descriptive or other information concerning the origin of a manuscript or manuscript part.

The child elements of origin (origDate and origPlace) are used to encode, in a highly structured manner, information about the place and date of origin of a manuscript.

The following example demonstrates the encoding method for a manuscript produced ca. 1810 in Iceland.
<origin>
 <origDate notAfter="1820notBefore="1800">ca. 1810</origDate>
 <origPlace key="IS"/>
</origin>

1.4.1.1 <origDate>

  • origDate (origin date) contains any form of date, used to identify the date of origin for a manuscript or manuscript part.
    notBefore [att.datable.w3c]specifies the earliest possible date for the event in standard form, e.g. yyyy-mm-dd.
    notAfter [att.datable.w3c]specifies the latest possible date for the event in standard form, e.g. yyyy-mm-dd.
    from [att.datable.w3c]indicates the starting point of the period in standard form, e.g. yyyy-mm-dd.
    to [att.datable.w3c]indicates the ending point of the period in standard form, e.g. yyyy-mm-dd.
    when [att.datable.w3c]supplies the value of the date or time in a standard form, e.g. yyyy-mm-dd.

The origDate element is required. Depending on the circumstances of, and level of certainly about, a manuscript's date of origin, one of three possible methods may be used to encode the date of origin:

  • If the manuscript was produced in a single year, and this date is known, the when attribute is used.
  • If the manuscript was produced over a span of two or more years, and these dates are known, the from and to attributes are used.
  • If the manuscript's exact date of production is not known but can be approximately determined via other means, such as palaeography and orthography, the notBefore and notAfter attributes are used.

Only one of these three methods should be used for the attributes on origDate. The element need not contain any text or child elements.

The following example demonstrates the encoding method for a manuscript known to have been produced in 1691:
<origDate when="1691"/>
The following example demonstrates the encoding method for a manuscript known to have been begun in 1815 and completed in 1827:
<origDate from="1815to="1827"/>
The following example demonstrates the encoding method for a manuscript whose date of production is not precisely known, but is estimated to have occurred at some point in the first quarter of the 18th century:
<origDate notAfter="1725notBefore="1701"/>

1.4.1.2 <origPlace>

  • origPlace (origin place) contains any form of place name, used to identify the place of origin for a manuscript or manuscript part.
    keyprovides an externally-defined means of identifying the entity (or entities) being named, using a coded value of some kind.

The origPlace element is also required, and, like origDate, need not contain any text or child elements. The value of the key attribute should be the standard reference code for the country in which the manuscript was produced.

The following example demonstrates the encoding method for a manuscript produced in Iceland:
<origPlace key="IS"/>

1.4.1.3 <provenance>

  • provenance contains any descriptive or other information concerning a single identifiable episode during the history of a manuscript or manuscript part, after its creation but before its acquisition.
  • name (name, proper noun) contains a proper noun or noun phrase.
    ref [att.canonical](reference) provides an explicit means of locating a full definition or identity for the entity being named by means of one or more URIs.
    role [att.naming]may be used to specify further information about the entity referenced by this name in the form of a set of whitespace-separated values, for example the occupation of a person, or the status of a place.
    typecharacterizes the element in some sense, using any convenient classification scheme or typology.

The provenance element is optional. If information on the history of the manuscript is available, particularly with respect to individuals known to have been involved with the manuscript in some way, e.g. as owners, then this information should be encoded using name elements as children of provenance. Such elements in this context are required to carry three attributes: type, key and role.

For personal names, the value of type is always person.

ref carries a reference code which points to a full description of the person in an authority file (described in a later section - 2.1 Persons).

role identifies the nature of the relationship between the person and the manuscript. Some possible values include owner and commissioner.

The following example demonstrates the method of encoding various owners of a manuscript:
<provenance>
 <name ref="#SigEin005role="owner"
  type="person">
Sigríður Einarsdóttir</name>
 <name ref="#JonSig045role="owner"
  type="person">
Jón Sigurður Sigurðsson</name>
 <name ref="#SigJen001role="owner"
  type="person">
Sigurður Jensson</name>
</provenance>

1.5 Manuscript parts

The msPart element should be used in cases where what were originally physically separate manuscripts or parts of manuscripts have been bound together and/or share the same call number.

  • msPart (manuscript part) contains information about an originally distinct manuscript or part of a manuscript, which is now part of a composite manuscript.

Since each component of such a composite manuscript will in all likelihood have its own content, physical characterstics, history and so on, the structure of msPart is in the main identical to that of msDesc, allowing one to retain the top level of identity (msIdentifier), but to describe the individual parts separately as necessary. If the parts of a composite manuscript have their own identifiers, they should be tagged using the idno element, rather than the msIdentifier element.

2 Authority files

The FASNL project uses a system of authority files for persons, places, repositories and text classes referenced in manuscript descriptions. This prevents repetition of information and greatly reduces the possibility of error.

Each person, place, repository or text class is assigned a unique identifier using xml:id. These can them be pointed to, using key or ref, from within the manuscript record.

Examples are given below.

2.1 Persons

Persons are defined using the element person.
  • person provides information about an identifiable individual, for example a participant in a language interaction, or a person referred to in a historical source.
<person role="scribesex="1"
 xml:id="JonErl001">

 <persName xml:lang="is">
  <forename sort="1">Jón</forename>
  <surname sort="2">Erlendsson</surname>
 </persName>
 <birth notAfter="1610notBefore="1600">ca. 1605</birth>
 <death when="1672-08">August 1672</death>
 <residence>
  <placeName>
   <settlement ref="#VilVil01type="farm">Villingaholt</settlement>
  </placeName>
 </residence>
 <occupation xml:lang="en">Priest</occupation>
 <bibl>
  <ref target="#IsAev">Íslenzkar æviskrár</ref>
  <biblScope unit="volume">III</biblScope>
  <biblScope from="195to="196unit="page"/>
 </bibl>
</person>
This is then referenced in the manuscript record like this:
<name ref="#JonErl001type="person">Jón Erlendsson</name>
or
<handNote scope="major"
 scribeRef="#JonErl001script="textualis">
Written, apart from
fol. 12, by Jón Erlendsson from Villingaholt in a clear, seventeenth-century Gothic
book hand.</handNote>

Note that the placeName element within residence contains a pointer to the corresponding place element, shown in the next section.

2.2 Places

Places are defined using the element place.
  • place contains data about a geographic location
<place xml:id="VilVil01">
 <placeName xml:lang="is">
  <settlement type="farm">Villingaholt</settlement>
  <region ref="#Villin01type="parish"/>
  <region ref="#Árnes01type="county"/>
  <region ref="#Sunnle01type="geog"/>
  <country ref="#IS"/>
 </placeName>
 <location>
  <geo>63.883997 -20.750909</geo>
 </location>
</place>

2.3 Repositories

Repositories are defined using the element org (organisation).
  • org (organization) provides information about an identifiable organization such as a business, a tribe, or any other grouping of people.
<org xml:id="AMDK">
 <orgName xml:lang="en">Arnamagnæan Collection, Copenhagen</orgName>
 <orgName xml:lang="da">Nordisk Forskningsinstitut, Københavns Universitet</orgName>
 <place>
  <settlement key="Copen01"/>
  <country key="DK"/>
 </place>
</org>

2.4 Text classes

In order to establish the compilation patterns of manuscripts containing fornaldarsögur, the class attribute is required on every msItem within a manuscript description.
  • msItem (manuscript item) describes an individual work or item within the intellectual content of a manuscript or manuscript part.
    classidentifies the text types or classifications applicable to this item by pointing to other elements or resources defining the classification concerned. Suggested values include: 1] fas; 2] ridd; 3] edd; 4] isl; 5] kvad; 6] kon; 7] islt; 8] rimur; 9] forns; 10] avint; 11] konth; 12] almb; 13] riddst
The possible values of the attribute are defined in a classification declaration in the teiHeader.
  • classDecl (classification declarations) contains one or more taxonomies defining any classificatory codes used elsewhere in the text.
  • taxonomy defines a typology either implicitly, by means of a bibliographic citation, or explicitly by a structured taxonomy.
  • category contains an individual descriptive category, possibly nested within a superordinate category, within a user-defined taxonomy.
  • catDesc (category description) describes some category within a taxonomy or text typology, either in the form of a brief prose description or in terms of the situational parameters used by the TEI formal textDesc.
The class declarations are based on the indices to Páll Eggert Ólason's Skrá um handritasöfn Landsbókasafnsins and are the same as those used by handrit.is.
<category xml:id="fas">
 <catDesc>
  <term xml:lang="is">Fornaldarsögur</term>
  <term xml:lang="da">Oldtidssagaer</term>
  <term xml:lang="en">Legendary sagas</term>
 </catDesc>
</category>
The most common classes found in fornaldarsaga manuscripts, in addition to fornaldarsögur, are:
ridd
Riddarasögur (Indigenous chivalric romances)

riddst
Riddarasögur síðari tíma (Post-mediaeval chivalric romances)

3 Customisation section

In the following section a brief survey of the modifications made vis-à-vis the TEI schema is presented. In general, the idea has been to put as much information into the encoding as possible, avoiding wherever possible the use of natural language. This is done both to make data-input easier for the cataloguers and reduce the risk of error, and also to make the data more easily searchable.

Included in the FASNL schema are the four basic key TEI modules <header>, <core>, <tei> and <textstructure>. Also included are the five specialised modules <namesdates>, <msdescription>, <analysis>, <figures> and <transcr>. A good many unwanted elements have been deleted, however, and several optional attributes have been made compulsory and their range of possible values constrained. Finally, the content model for a small number of elements has been simplified. Formal definitions for all the elements can be found in section 4 below (4 Formal definitions.

On the msDesc (manuscript description) element the attributes xml:id, which provides a unique identifier for the element, and xml:lang, which indicates the language of the element content, have been made madatory.

The sub-elements of msDesc, msIdentifier, msContents, physDesc, history and additional, have all been made mandatory, apart from additional; also optional are msPart, which is only used for composite manuscripts, and msFrag, which is used for scattered manuscripts.

The msContents element must contain at least one msItem element, on which the attributes class and n must be present. Each msItem, in turn, must contain the elements locus, title and textLang, each with their required attributes.

The attributes from and to are required on the locus element.

On the title element the type attribute is required; possible values are uniform | supplied | parallel.

The textLang element has been made empty and requires the mainLang attribute.

The attribute ana (analysis) is used on a number of elements in order to provide basic information on the presence or absence of a feature or its relative level or extent. All are required (if the element is used).

The elements are:

<abbr>

<abbr> (abbreviation) contains an abbreviation of any sort. [3.5.5. Abbreviations and Their Expansions]

typeallows the encoder to classify the abbreviation according to some convenient typology. Sample values include: 1] suspension; 2] contraction; 3] brevigraph; 4] superscription; 5] acronym; 6] title; 7] organization; 8] geographic
Derived fromatt.typed
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Sample values include:
suspension
the abbreviation provides the first letter(s) of the word or phrase, omitting the remainder.
contraction
the abbreviation omits some letter(s) in the middle.
brevigraph
the abbreviation comprises a special symbol or mark.
superscription
the abbreviation includes writing above the line.
acronym
the abbreviation comprises the initial letters of the words of a phrase.
title
the abbreviation is for a title of address (Dr, Ms, Mr, …)
organization
the abbreviation is for the name of an organization.
geographic
the abbreviation is for a geographic name.
Note

The type attribute is provided for the sake of those who wish to classify abbreviations at their point of occurrence; this may be useful in some circumstances, though usually the same abbreviation will have the same type in all occurrences. As the sample values make clear, abbreviations may be classified by the method used to construct them, the method of writing them, or the referent of the term abbreviated; the typology used is up to the encoder and should be carefully planned to meet the needs of the expected use. For a typology of Middle English abbreviations, see [ID PETTY in TEI Guidelines]

Note

The abbr tag is not required; if appropriate, the encoder may transcribe abbreviations in the source text silently, without tagging them. If abbreviations are not transcribed directly but expanded silently, then the TEI header should so indicate.

Note

In a diplomatic edition attempting to represent an original source, the add element should not be used for additions to the current TEI electronic edition made by editors or encoders. In these cases, either the corr or supplied element are recommended.

In a TEI edition of a historical text with previous editorial emendations in which such additions or reconstructions are considered part of the source text, the use of add may be appropriate, dependent on the editorial philosophy of the project.

Particularly where cataloguing is likely to be based on the content of the header, it is advisable to use a generally recognized name authority file to supply the content for this element. The attributes key or ref may also be used to reference canonical information about the author(s) intended from any appropriate authority, such as a library catalogue or online resource.

In the case of a broadcast, use this element for the name of the company or network responsible for making the broadcast.

Where an author is unknown or unspecified, this element may contain text such as Unknown or Anonymous. When the appropriate TEI modules are in use, it may also contain detailed tagging of the names used for people, organizations or places, in particular where multiple names are given.

On this element, the global n attribute indicates the number or other value associated with the column which follows the point of insertion of this cb element. Encoders should adopt a clear and consistent policy as to whether the numbers associated with column breaks relate to the physical sequence number of the column in the whole text, or whether columns are numbered within the page. The cb element is placed at the head of the column to which it refers.

Note

Because the children of a choice element all represent alternative ways of encoding the same sequence, it is natural to think of them as mutually exclusive. However, there may be cases where a full representation of a text requires the alternative encodings to be considered as parallel.

Note also that choice elements may self-nest.

Where the purpose of an encoding is to record multiple witnesses of a single work, rather than to identify multiple possible encoding decisions at a given point, the <app> element and associated elements discussed in section 12.1. The Apparatus Entry, Readings, and Witnesses should be preferred.

Example

An American encoding of Gulliver's Travels which retains the British spelling but also provides a version regularized to American spelling might be encoded as follows.

<p>Lastly, That, upon his solemn oath to observe all the above
articles, the said man-mountain shall have a daily allowance of
meat and drink sufficient for the support of <choice>

<condition>
 <p>There are lacunae in three places in this
   manuscript. After 14v two
   leaves has been cut out and narrow strips leaves remains in the spine. After
   68v one gathering is missing and after 101v at least one gathering of 8 leaves
   has been lost. </p>
 <p>Several leaves are damaged with tears or holes or have a
   irregular shape. Some of the damages do not allow the lines to be of full
   length and they are apparently older than the script. There are tears on fol.
   2r-v, 9r-v, 10r-v, 15r-18v, 19r-v, 20r-22v, 23r-v, 24r-28v, 30r-v, 32r-35v,

   the corner has been torn off. Several leaves are in a bad condition due to
   moist and wear, and have become dark, bleached or
   wrinkled. </p>
 <p>The script has been
   touched up in the 17th century with black ink. The touching up on the following

   AM-note says according to the lawman
 <name>Sigurður Björnsson</name> that the rest of the

Note

Since damage to text witnesses frequently makes them harder to read, the damage element will often contain an unclear element. If the damaged area is not continuous (e.g. a stain affecting several strings of text), the group attribute may be used to group together several related damage elements; alternatively the <join> element may be used to indicate which damage and unclear elements are part of the same physical phenomenon.

The damage, gap, del, unclear and supplied elements may be closely allied in use. See section 11.3.3.2. Use of the gap, del, damage, unclear, and supplied Elements in Combination for discussion of which element is appropriate for which circumstance.

<del>

<del> (deletion) contains a letter, word, or passage deleted, marked as deleted, or otherwise indicated as superfluous or spurious in the copy text by an author, scribe, or a previous annotator or corrector. [3.4.3. Additions, Deletions, and Omissions]

Note

This element should be used for deletion of shorter sequences of text, typically single words or phrases. The <delSpan> element should be used for longer sequences of text, for those containing structural subdivisions, and for those containing overlapping additions and deletions.

The text deleted must be at least partially legible in order for the encoder to be able to transcribe it (unless it is restored in a supplied tag). Illegible or lost text within a deletion may be marked using the gap tag to signal that text is present but has not been transcribed, or is no longer visible. Attributes on the gap element may be used to indicate how much text is omitted, the reason for omitting it, etc. If text is not fully legible, the unclear element (available when using the additional tagset for transcription of primary sources) should be used to signal the areas of text which cannot be read with confidence in a similar way.

Degrees of uncertainty over what can still be read, or whether a deletion was intended may be indicated by use of the <certainty> element (see 21. Certainty, Precision, and Responsibility).

There is a clear distinction in the TEI between del and surplus on the one hand and gap or unclear on the other. del indicates a deletion present in the source being transcribed, which states the author's or a later scribe's intent to cancel or remove text. surplus indicates material present in the source being transcribed which should have been so deleted, but which is not in fact. gap or unclear, by contrast, signal an editor's or encoder's decision to omit something or their inability to read the source text. See sections 11.3.1.7. Text Omitted from or Supplied in the Transcription and 11.3.3.2. Use of the gap, del, damage, unclear, and supplied Elements in Combination for the relationship between these and other related elements used in detailed transcription.

msdescription: depth dim height width
Note

Contains no more than one of each of the specialized elements used to express a three-dimensional object's height, width, and depth, combined with any number of other kinds of dimensional specification.

Example
<dimensions type="leaves">
 <height scope="range">157-160</height>
 <width>105</width>
</dimensions>
<dimensions type="ruled">
 <height scope="most">90</height>
 <width scope="most">48</width>
</dimensions>
<dimensions unit="in">
 <height>12</height>
 <width>10</width>
</dimensions>
Example

This element may be used to record the dimensions of any text-bearing object, not necessarily a codex. For example:

<dimensions type="panels">
 <height scope="all">7004</height>
 <width scope="all">1803</width>
 <dim type="reliefunit="mm">345</dim>
</dimensions>

This might be used to show that the inscribed panels on some (imaginary) monument are all the same size (7004 by 1803 cm) and stand out from the rest of the monument by 345 mm.

Example

When simple numeric quantities are involved, they may be expressed on the quantity attribute of any or all of the child elements, as in the following example:

<dimensions type="leaves">
 <height scope="range">157-160</height>
 <width quantity="105"/>
</dimensions>
<dimensions type="ruled">
 <height quantity="90scope="most"
  unit="cm"/>

 <width quantity="48scope="mostunit="cm"/>
</dimensions>
<dimensions unit="in">
 <height quantity="12"/>
 <width quantity="10"/>

 <title>Guan-ben</title>
 <filiation>
  <p>The "Guan-ben" was widely current among mathematicians in the
     Qing dynasty, and "Zhao Qimei version" was also read. It is
     therefore difficult to know the correct filiation path to follow.
     The study of this era is much indebted to Li Di. We explain the
     outline of his conclusion here. Kong Guangsen
     (1752-1786)(17) was from the same town as Dai Zhen, so he obtained
     "Guan-ben" from him and studied it(18). Li Huang (d. 1811)
     (19) took part in editing Si Ku Quan Shu, so he must have had
     "Guan-ben". Then Zhang Dunren (1754-1834) obtained this version,
     and studied "Da Yan Zong Shu Shu" (The General Dayan
     Computation). He wrote Jiu Yi Suan Shu (Mathematics
     Searching for One, 1803) based on this version of Shu Xue Jiu
     Zhang (20).</p>
  <p>One of the most important persons in restoring our knowledge
     concerning the filiation of these books was Li Rui (1768(21)
     -1817)(see his biography). ... only two volumes remain of this
     manuscript, as far as chapter 6 (chapter 3 part 2) p.13, that is,
     question 2 of "Huan Tian San Ji" (square of three loops),
     which later has been lost.</p>

Note

The gap, unclear, and del core tag elements may be closely allied in use with the damage and supplied elements, available when using the additional tagset for transcription of primary sources. See section 11.3.3.2. Use of the gap, del, damage, unclear, and supplied Elements in Combination for discussion of which element is appropriate for which circumstance.

The gap tag simply signals the editors decision to omit or inability to transcribe a span of text. Other information, such as the interpretation that text was deliberately erased or covered, should be indicated using the relevant tags, such as del in the case of deliberate deletion.

Note

The handShift element may be used either to denote a shift in the document hand (as from one scribe to another, on one writing style to another). Or, it may indicate a shift within a document hand, as a change of writing style, character or ink. Like other milestone elements, it should appear at the point of transition from some other state to the state which it describes.

Whatever string of characters is used to label a list item in the copy text may be used as the value of the global n attribute, but it is not required that numbering be recorded explicitly. In ordered lists, the n attribute on the item element is by definition synonymous with the use of the <label> element to record the enumerator of the list item. In glossary lists, however, the term being defined should be given with the <label> element, not n.

<lb>

<lb> (line break) marks the start of a new (typographic) line in some edition or version of a text. [3.10.3. Milestone Elements 7.2.5. Speech Contents]
Modulecore — Formal definitions

May containEmpty element
Note

By convention, lb elements should appear at the point in the text where a new line starts. The n attribute, if used, indicates the number or other value associated with the text between this point and the next lb element, typically the sequence number of the line within the page, or other appropriate unit. This element is intended to be used for marking actual line breaks on a manuscript or printed page, at the point where they occur; it should not be used to tag structural units such as lines of verse (for which the l element is available) except in circumstances where structural units cannot otherwise be marked.

The type attribute may be used to characterize the line break in any respect. The more specialized attributes break, ed, or edRef should be preferred when the intent is to indicate whether or not the line break is word-breaking, or to note the source from which it derives.

Example

This example shows typographical line breaks within metrical lines, where they occur at different places in different editions:

<l>Of Mans First Disobedience,<lb ed="1674"/> and<lb ed="1667"/> the Fruit</l>
<l>Of that Forbidden Tree, whose<lb ed="1667 1674"/> mortal tast</l>
<l>Brought Death into the World,<lb ed="1667"/> and all<lb ed="1674"/> our woe,</l>
Example

This example encodes typographical line breaks as a means of preserving the visual appearance of a title page. The break attribute is used to show that the line break does not (as elsewhere) mark the start of a new word.

This element should be used only to mark up writing which is topographically organized as a series of lines, horizontal or vertical. It should not be used to mark lines of verse (for which use l) nor to mark linebreaks within text which has been encoded using structural elements such as p (for which use lb).

<list> contains any sequence of items organized as a list. [3.7. Lists]

typedescribes the nature of the items in the list. Suggested values include: 1] gloss; 2] index; 3] instructions; 4] litany; 5] syllogism
Derived fromatt.typed
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Suggested values include:
gloss
each list item glosses some term or concept, which is given by a label element preceding the list item.
index
each list item is an entry in an index such as the alphabetical topical index at the back of a print volume.
instructions
each list item is a step in a sequence of instructions, as in a recipe.
litany
each list item is one of a sequence of petitions, supplications or invocations, typically in a religious ritual.
syllogism
each list item is part of an argument consisting of two or more propositions and a final conclusion derived from them.
Note

Previous versions of these Guidelines recommended the use of type on list to encode the rendering or appearance of a list (whether it was bulleted, numbered, etc.). The current recommendation is to use the rend or style attributes for these aspects of a list, while using type for the more appropriate task of characterizing the nature of the content of a list.

Note

The formal syntax of the element declarations allows <label> tags to be omitted from lists tagged <list type="gloss">; this is however a semantic error.

Example

The following example treats the short numbered clauses of Anglo-Saxon legal codes as lists of items. The text is from an ordinance of King Athelstan (924–939):

<div1 type="section">
 <head>Athelstan's Ordinance</head>
 <list rend="numbered">
  <item n="1">Concerning thieves. First, that no thief is to be spared who is caught with
     the stolen goods, [if he is] over twelve years and [if the value of the goods is] over
     eightpence.
  <list rend="numbered">
    <item n="1.1">And if anyone does spare one, he is to pay for the thief with his
         wergild — and the thief is to be no nearer a settlement on that account — or to
         clear himself by an oath of that amount.</item>
    <item n="1.2">If, however, he [the thief] wishes to defend himself or to escape, he is
         not to be spared [whether younger or older than twelve].</item>
    <item n="1.3">If a thief is put into prison, he is to be in prison 40 days, and he may
         then be redeemed with 120 shillings; and the kindred are to stand surety for him
         that he will desist for ever.</item>
    <item n="1.4">And if he steals after that, they are to pay for him with his wergild,
         or to bring him back there.</item>
    <item n="1.5">And if he steals after that, they are to pay for him with his wergild,
         whether to the king or to him to whom it rightly belongs; and everyone of those who
         supported him is to pay 120 shillings to the king as a fine.</item>
   </list>
  </item>
  <item n="2">Concerning lordless men. And we pronounced about these lordless men, from whom
     no justice can be obtained, that one should order their kindred to fetch back such a
     person to justice and to find him a lord in public meeting.
  <list rend="numbered">
    <item n="2.1">And if they then will not, or cannot, produce him on that appointed day,
         he is then to be a fugitive afterwards, and he who encounters him is to strike him
         down as a thief.</item>
    <item n="2.2">And he who harbours him after that, is to pay for him with his wergild
         or to clear himself by an oath of that amount.</item>
   </list>
  </item>
  <item n="3">Concerning the refusal of justice. The lord who refuses justice and upholds
     his guilty man, so that the king is appealed to, is to repay the value of the goods and
     120 shillings to the king; and he who appeals to the king before he demands justice as
     often as he ought, is to pay the same fine as the other would have done, if he had
     refused him justice.
  <list rend="numbered">
    <item n="3.1">And the lord who is an accessory to a theft by his slave, and it becomes
         known about him, is to forfeit the slave and be liable to his wergild on the first
         occasionp if he does it more often, he is to be liable to pay all that he owns.</item>
    <item n="3.2">And likewise any of the king's treasurers or of our reeves, who has been
         an accessory of thieves who have committed theft, is to liable to the same.</item>
   </list>
  </item>
  <item n="4">Concerning treachery to a lord. And we have pronounced concerning treachery to
     a lord, that he [who is accused] is to forfeit his life if he cannot deny it or is
     afterwards convicted at the three-fold ordeal.</item>
 </list>
</div1>

Note that nested lists have been used so the tagging mirrors the structure indicated by the two-level numbering of the clauses. The clauses could have been treated as a one-level list with irregular numbering, if desired.

Example
<p>These decrees, most blessed Pope Hadrian, we propounded in the public council ... and they
confirmed them in our hand in your stead with the sign of the Holy Cross, and afterwards
inscribed with a careful pen on the paper of this page, affixing thus the sign of the Holy
Cross.
<list rend="simple">
  <item>I, Eanbald, by the grace of God archbishop of the holy church of York, have
     subscribed to the pious and catholic validity of this document with the sign of the Holy
     Cross.</item>
  <item>I, Ælfwold, king of the people across the Humber, consenting have subscribed with

<locus>

<locus> defines a location within a manuscript or manuscript part, usually as a (possibly discontinuous) sequence of folio references. [10.3.5. References to Locations within a Manuscript]

Note

The target attribute should only be used to point to elements that contain or indicate a transcription of the locus being described, as in the first example above. To associate a locus element with a page image or other comparable representation, the global facs attribute should be used instead, as shown in the second example. Use of the target attribute to indicate an image is strongly deprecated. The facs attribute may be used to indicate one or more image files, as above, or alternatively it may point to one or more appropriate XML elements, such as the surface, zone element, <graphic>, or <binaryObject> elements.

Note

When the location being defined consists of a single page, use the from and to attributes with an identical value. When no clear endpoint is given the from attribute should be used without to. For example, if the manuscript description being transcribed has ‘p. 3ff’ as the locus.

Example

<!-- within ms description --><msItem n="1">
 <locus from="1rtarget="#F1r #F1v #F2r"
  to="2r">

Example

The facs attribute is available globally when the transcr module is included in a schema. It may be used to point directly to an image file, as in the following example:

Default true
Note

In modern texts, notes are usually anchored by means of explicit footnote or endnote symbols. An explicit indication of the phrase or line annotated may however be used instead (e.g. ‘page 218, lines 3–4’). The anchored attribute indicates whether any explicit location is given, whether by symbol or by prose cross-reference. The value true indicates that such an explicit location is indicated in the copy text; the value false indicates that the copy text does not indicate a specific place of attachment for the note. If the specific symbols used in the copy text at the location the note is anchored are to be recorded, use the n attribute.

targetEndpoints to the end of the span to which the note is attached, if the note is not embedded in the text at that point.

Note

This attribute is retained for backwards compatibility; it may be removed at a subsequent release of the Guidelines. The recommended way of pointing to a span of elements is by means of the range function of XPointer, as further described in 16.2.4.6. range().

Example
In the following example, the translator has supplied a footnote containing an explanation of the term translated as "painterly":
And yet it is not only
in the great line of Italian renaissance art, but even in the
painterly <note place="bottomresp="#MDMH"
 type="gloss">

 <term xml:lang="de">Malerisch</term>. This word has, in the German, two
distinct meanings, one objective, a quality residing in the object,
the other subjective, a mode of apprehension and creation. To avoid
confusion, they have been distinguished in English as
<mentioned>picturesque</mentioned> and
<mentioned>painterly</mentioned> respectively.
</note> style of the
Dutch genre painters of the seventeenth century that drapery has this
psychological significance.

For this example to be valid, the code MDMH must be defined elsewhere, for example by means of a responsibility statement in the associated TEI header:

<respStmt xml:id="MDMH">
 <resp>translation from German to English</resp>
 <name>Hottinger, Marie Donald Mackie</name>
</respStmt>
Example

The global n attribute may be used to supply the symbol or number used to mark the note's point of attachment in the source text, as in the following example:

Mevorakh b. Saadya's mother, the matriarch of the
family during the second half of the eleventh century, <note anchored="truen="126"> The
alleged mention of Judah Nagid's mother in a letter from 1071 is, in fact, a reference to
Judah's children; cf. above, nn. 111 and 54. </note> is well known from Geniza documents
published by Jacob Mann.

However, if notes are numbered in sequence and their numbering can be reconstructed automatically by processing software, it may well be considered unnecessary to record the note numbers.

May containEmpty element
Note

A pb element should appear at the start of the page which it identifies. The global n attribute indicates the number or other value associated with this page. This will normally be the page number or signature printed on it, since the physical sequence number is implicit in the presence of the pb element itself.

The type attribute may be used to characterize the page break in any respect, for example as word-breaking or not.

Example

Page numbers may vary in different editions of a text.

<p> ... <pb ed="ed2n="145"/>
<!-- Page 145 in edition "ed2" starts here --> ... <pb ed="ed1n="283"/>
<!-- Page 283 in edition "ed1" starts here--> ... </p>
Example

A page break may be associated with a facsimile image of the page it introduces by means of the facs attribute

<body>
 <pb facs="page1.pngn="1"/>
<!-- page1.png contains an image of the page; the text it contains is encoded here -->
 <p>
<!-- ... -->

Where a publication statement contains several members of the model.publicationStmtPart classes rather than one or more paragraphs or anonymous blocks, care should be taken to ensure that the repeated elements are presented in a meaningful order. It is a conformance requirement that elements supplying information about publication place, address, identifier, availability, and date be given following the name of the publisher, distributor, or authority concerned, and preferably in that order.

Note

Only one of the attributes active and mutual may be supplied; the attribute passive may be supplied only if the attribute active is supplied. Not all of these constraints can be enforced in all schema languages.

Example
<relation active="#p1name="supervisor"
 passive="#p2 #p3 #p4type="social"/>

This indicates that the person with identifier p1 is supervisor of persons p2, p3, and p4.

Example
<relation mutual="#p2 #p3 #p4"
 name="friendstype="personal"/>

This indicates that p2, p3, and p4 are all friends.

Example
<relation active="http://id.clarosnet.org/places/metamorphoses/place/italy-orvieto"
 name="P89_falls_within"
 passive="http://id.clarosnet.org/places/metamorphoses/country/ITtype="CRM"/>

This indicates that there is a relation, defined by CIDOC CRM, between two resources identified by URLs.

Example

Note

Since the default value of the scheme attribute is assumed to be CSS, the default expectation for this attribute, in the absence of scheme, is that CSS selector syntax will be used.

Note

While rendition is used to point from an element in the transcribed source to a rendition element in the header which describes how it appears, the selector attribute allows the encoder to point in the other direction: from a rendition in the header to a collection of elements which all share the same renditional features. In both cases, the intention is to record the appearance of the source text, not to prescribe any particular output rendering.

Note

The surface element represents any two-dimensional space on some physical surface forming part of the source material, such as a piece of paper, a face of a monument, a billboard, a scroll, a leaf etc.

The coordinate space defined by this element may be thought of as a grid lrx - ulx units wide and uly - lry units high.

The surface element may contain graphic representations or transcriptions of written zones, or both. The coordinate values used by every zone element contained by this element are to be understood with reference to the same grid.

Where it is useful or meaningful to do so, any grouping of multiple surface elements may be indicated using the surfaceGrp elements.

<term>

<term> contains a single-word, multi-word, or symbolic designation which is regarded as a technical term. [3.3.4. Terms, Glosses, Equivalents, and Descriptions]

Note

When this element appears within an <index> element, it is understood to supply the form under which an index entry is to be made for that location. Elsewhere, it is understood simply to indicate that its content is to be regarded as a technical or specialised term. It may be associated with a <gloss> element by means of its ref attribute; alternatively a <gloss> element may point to a term element by means of its target attribute.

In formal terminological work, there is frequently discussion over whether terms must be atomic or may include multi-word lexical items, symbolic designations, or phraseological units. The term element may be used to mark any of these. No position is taken on the philosophical issue of what a term can be; the looser definition simply allows the term element to be used by practitioners of any persuasion.

As with other members of the att.canonical class, instances of this element occuring in a text may be associated with a canonical definition, either by means of a URI (using the ref attribute), or by means of some system-specific code value (using the key attribute). Because the mutually exclusive target and cRef attributes overlap with the function of the ref attribute, they are deprecated and may be removed at a subsequent release.

Example
A computational device that infers structure
from grammatical strings of words is known as a <term>parser</term>, and much of the history
of NLP over the last 20 years has been occupied with the design of parsers.
Example
We may define <term rend="scxml:id="TDPV1">discoursal point of view</term> as
<gloss target="#TDPV1">the relationship, expressed
through discourse structure, between the implied author or some other addresser, and the
fiction.</gloss>
Example
We may define <term ref="#TDPV2rend="sc">discoursal point of view</term> as
<gloss xml:id="TDPV2">the relationship, expressed
through discourse structure, between the implied author or some other addresser, and the
fiction.</gloss>
Example
We discuss Leech's concept of <term ref="myGlossary.xml#TDPV2rend="sc">discoursal point of view</term> below.

Note

This element should not be used to document the languages or writing systems used for the bibliographic or manuscript description itself: as for all other TEI elements, such information should be provided by means of the global xml:lang attribute attached to the element containing the description.

In all cases, languages should be identified by means of a standardized ‘language tag’ generated according to BCP 47. Additional documentation for the language may be provided by a <language> element in the TEI Header.

Note

This attribute is provided for convenience in analysing titles and processing them according to their type; where such specialized processing is not necessary, there is no need for such analysis, and the entire title, including subtitles and any parallel titles, may be enclosed within a single title element.

levelindicates the bibliographic level for a title, that is, whether it identifies an article, book, journal, series, or unpublished material.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Legal values are:
a
(analytic) the title applies to an analytic item, such as an article, poem, or other work published as part of a larger item.
m
(monographic) the title applies to a monograph such as a book or other item considered to be a distinct publication, including single volumes of multi-volume works
j
(journal) the title applies to any serial or periodical publication such as a journal, magazine, or newspaper
s
(series) the title applies to a series of otherwise distinct publications such as a collection
u
(unpublished) the title applies to any unpublished material (including theses and dissertations unless published by a commercial press)
Note

The level of a title is sometimes implied by its context: for example, a title appearing directly within an <analytic> element is ipso facto of level ‘a’, and one appearing within a <series> element of level ‘s’. For this reason, the level attribute is not required in contexts where its value can be unambiguously inferred. Where it is supplied in such contexts, its value should not contradict the value implied by its parent element.

Note

Where there is confusion between trait and <state> the more general purpose element <state> should be used even for unchanging characteristics. If you wish to distinguish between characteristics that are generally perceived to be time-bound states and those assumed to be fixed traits, then trait is available for the more static of these. The <state> element encodes characteristics which are sometimes assumed to change, often at specific times or over a date range, whereas the trait elements are used to record characteristics, such as eye-colour, which are less subject to change. Traits are typically, but not necessarily, independent of the volition or action of the holder.

Note

The same element is used for all cases of uncertainty in the transcription of element content, whether for written or spoken material. For other aspects of certainty, uncertainty, and reliability of tagging and transcription, see chapter 21. Certainty, Precision, and Responsibility.

The damage, gap, del, unclear and supplied elements may be closely allied in use. See section 11.3.3.2. Use of the gap, del, damage, unclear, and supplied Elements in Combination for discussion of which element is appropriate for which circumstance.

The hand attribute points to a definition of the hand concerned, as further discussed in section 11.3.2.1. Document Hands.

transcr: line surface zone
May contain
Note

The position of every zone for a given surface is always defined by reference to the coordinate system defined for that surface.

A graphic element contained by a zone represents the whole of the zone.

A zone may be of any shape. The attribute points may be used to define a polygonal zone, using the coordinate system defined by its parent surface.

Example
<surface lrx="0lry="0ulx="14.54"
 uly="16.14">

 <graphic url="stone.jpg"/>
 <zone points="4.6,6.3 5.25,5.85 6.2,6.6 8.19222,7.4125 9.89222,6.5875 10.9422,6.1375 11.4422,6.7125 8.21722,8.3125 6.2,7.65"/>
</surface>

This example defines a non-rectangular zone: see the illustration in section [ID PH-surfzone in TEI Guidelines].

Example
<facsimile>
 <surface lrx="400lry="280ulx="50"
  uly="20">

  <zone lrx="500lry="321ulx="0uly="0">
   <graphic url="graphic.png "/>
  </zone>
 </surface>
</facsimile>

This example defines a zone which has been defined as larger than its parent surface in order to match the dimensions of the graphic it contains.

Note

The value may be a unique identifier from a database, or any other externally-defined string identifying the referent.

No particular syntax is proposed for the values of the key attribute, since its form will depend entirely on practice within a given project. For the same reason, this attribute is not recommended in data interchange, since there is no way of ensuring that the values used by one project are distinct from those used by another. In such a situation, a preferable approach for magic tokens which follows standard practice on the Web is to use a ref attribute whose value is a tag URI as defined in RFC 4151.

ref(reference) provides an explicit means of locating a full definition or identity for the entity being named by means of one or more URIs.

The value must point directly to one or more XML elements or other resources by means of one or more URIs, separated by whitespace. If more than one is supplied the implication is that the name identifies several distinct entities.

Note

The value of cRef should be constructed so that when the algorithm for the resolution of canonical references (described in section 16.2.5. Canonical References) is applied to it the result is a valid URI reference to the intended target

The <refsDecl> to use may be indicated with the decls attribute.

Currently these Guidelines only provide for a single canonical reference to be encoded on any given <ptr> element.

degreeprovides a coded representation of the degree of damage, either as a number between 0 (undamaged) and 1 (very extensively damaged), or as one of the codes high, medium, low, or unknown. The damage element with the degree attribute should only be used where the text may be read with some confidence; text supplied from other sources should be tagged as supplied.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.probCert
Note

The damage element is appropriate where it is desired to record the fact of damage although this has not affected the readability of the text, for example a weathered inscription. Where the damage has rendered the text more or less illegible either the unclear tag (for partial illegibility) or the gap tag (for complete illegibility, with no text supplied) should be used, with the information concerning the damage given in the attribute values of these tags. See section 11.3.3.2. Use of the gap, del, damage, unclear, and supplied Elements in Combination for discussion of the use of these tags in particular circumstances.

Note

Note that the calendar attribute (unlike datingMethod defined in att.datable.custom) defines the calendar system of the date in the original material defined by the parent element, not the calendar to which the date is normalized.

periodsupplies a pointer to some location defining a named period of time within which the datable item is understood to have occurred.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.pointer
Note

This ‘superclass’ provides attributes that can be used to provide normalized values of temporal information. By default, the attributes from the att.datable.w3c class are provided. If the module for names & dates is loaded, this class also provides attributes from the att.datable.iso and att.datable.custom classes. In general, the possible values of attributes restricted to the W3C datatypes form a subset of those values available via the ISO 8601 standard. However, the greater expressiveness of the ISO datatypes may not be needed, and there exists much greater software support for the W3C datatypes.

att.datable.custom

att.datable.custom provides attributes for normalization of elements that contain datable events to a custom dating system (i.e. other than the Gregorian used by W3 and ISO). [13.3.6. Dates and Times]

The following are examples of custom date or time formats that are not valid ISO or W3C format normalizations, normalized to a different dating system

<p>Alhazen died in Cairo on the

<p>Esidorus bixit in pace annos LXX plus minus sub
<date when-custom="Ind:4-10-11">die XI mensis Octobris indictione IIII</date>
</p>

Not all custom date formulations will have Gregorian equivalents.

The when-custom attribute and other custom dating are not contrained to a datatype by the TEI, but individual projects are recommended to regularize and document their dating formats.

<date calendar="#julian"
 datingMethod="#julianwhen-custom="1598">

Citizen of London.

In this example, the calendar attribute points to a <calendar> element for the Julian calendar, specifying that the text content of the date element is a Julian date, and the datingMethod attribute also points to the Julian calendar to indicate that the content of the when-custom attribute value is Julian too.

<date datingMethod="#creationOfWorld"
 when="1382-06-28when-custom="6890-06-20">
μηνὶ Ἰουνίου εἰς <num>κ</num> ἔτους <num>ςωϞ</num>
</date>

In this example, a date is given in a Mediaeval text measured "from the creation of the world", which is normalised (in when) to the Gregorian date, but is also normalized (in when-custom) to a machine-actionable, numeric version of the date from the Creation.

Note

Note that the datingMethod attribute (unlike calendar defined in att.datable) defines the calendar or dating system to which the date described by the parent element is normalized (i.e. in the when-custom or other X-custom attributes), not the calendar of the original date in the element.

att.datable.iso

att.datable.iso provides attributes for normalization of elements that contain datable events using the ISO 8601 standard. [3.5.4. Dates and Times 13.3.6. Dates and Times]

Datatype teidata.temporal.iso

The following are examples of ISO date, time, and date & time formats that are not valid W3C format normalizations.

<date when-iso="1996-09-24T07:25+00">Sept. 24th, 1996 at 3:25 in the morning</date>
<date when-iso="1996-09-24T03:25-04">Sept. 24th, 1996 at 3:25 in the morning</date>

<time when-iso="03:00">3 A.M.</time>
<time when-iso="14">around two</time>
<time when-iso="15,5">half past three</time>

All of the examples of the when attribute in the att.datable.w3c class are also valid with respect to this attribute.

He likes to be punctual. I said <q>
 <time when-iso="12">around noon</time>
</q>, and he showed up at <time when-iso="12:00:00">12 O'clock</time> on the dot.

The second occurence of <time> could have been encoded with the when attribute, as 12:00:00 is a valid time with respect to the W3C XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes Second Edition specification. The first occurence could not.

notBefore-isospecifies the earliest possible date for the event in standard form, e.g. yyyy-mm-dd.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.temporal.iso
notAfter-isospecifies the latest possible date for the event in standard form, e.g. yyyy-mm-dd.

from-isoindicates the starting point of the period in standard form.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.temporal.iso
to-isoindicates the ending point of the period in standard form.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.temporal.iso
Note

The value of these attributes should be a normalized representation of the date, time, or combined date & time intended, in any of the standard formats specified by ISO 8601, using the Gregorian calendar.

Note
If both when-iso and dur-iso are specified, the values should be interpreted as indicating a span of time by its starting time (or date) and duration. That is,
<date dur-iso="P8Dwhen-iso="2007-06-01"/>
indicates the same time period as
<date when-iso="2007-06-01/P8D"/>

In providing a ‘regularized’ form, no claim is made that the form in the source text is incorrect; the regularized form is simply that chosen as the main form for purposes of unifying variant forms under a single heading.

att.datable.w3c

Note

The value of these attributes should be a normalized representation of the date, time, or combined date & time intended, in any of the standard formats specified by XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes Second Edition, using the Gregorian calendar.

The most commonly-encountered format for the date portion of a temporal attribute is yyyy-mm-dd, but yyyy, --mm, ---dd, yyyy-mm, or --mm-dd may also be used. For the time part, the form hh:mm:ss is used.

Note that this format does not currently permit use of the value 0000 to represent the year 1 BCE; instead the value -0001 should be used.

att.datcat

att.datcat provides the dcr:datacat and dcr:ValueDatacat attributes which are used to align XML elements or attributes with the appropriate Data Categories (DCs) defined by the ISO 12620:2009 standard and stored in the Web repository called ISOCat at http://www.isocat.org/.

Note

ISO 12620:2009 is a standard describing the data model and procedures for a Data Category Registry (DCR). Data categories are defined as elementary descriptors in a linguistic structure. In the DCR data model each data category gets assigned a unique Peristent IDentifier (PID), i.e., an URI. Linguistic resources or preferably their schemas that make use of data categories from a DCR should refer to them using this PID. For XML-based resources, like TEI documents, ISO 12620:2009 normative Annex A gives a small Data Category Reference XML vocabulary (also available online at http://www.isocat.org/12620/), which provides two attributes, dcr:datcat and dcr:valueDatcat.

Status Optional
Datatype teidata.xTruthValue
Default false
Note

The members of this attribute class are typically used to represent any kind of editorial intervention in a text, for example a correction or interpretation, or to date or localize manuscripts etc.

Note

Each pointer on the source (if present) corresponding to a witness or witness group should reference a bibliographic citation such as a <witness>, msDesc, or bibl element, or another external bibliographic citation, documenting the source concerned.

att.fragmentable

att.fragmentable provides an attribute for representing fragmentation of a structural element, typically as a consequence of some overlapping hierarchy.
Moduletei — Formal definitions
Membersatt.divLike [div lg] att.segLike [c pc w] l p
AttributesAttributes
partspecifies whether or not its parent element is fragmented in some way, typically by some other overlapping structure: for example a speech which is divided between two or more verse stanzas, a paragraph which is split across a page division, a verse line which is divided between two speakers.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Legal values are:
Y
(yes) the element is fragmented in some (unspecified) respect
N
(no) the element is not fragmented, or no claim is made as to its completeness [Default]
I
(initial) this is the initial part of a fragmented element
M
(medial) this is a medial part of a fragmented element
F
(final) this is the final part of a fragmented element
Note

The values I, M, or F should be used only where it is clear how the element may be be reconstituted.

xml:id(identifier) provides a unique identifier for the element bearing the attribute.
Status Optional
Datatype ID
Note

The xml:id attribute may be used to specify a canonical reference for an element; see section 3.10. Reference Systems.

n(number) gives a number (or other label) for an element, which is not necessarily unique within the document.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.text
Note

The value of this attribute is always understood to be a single token, even if it contains space or other punctuation characters, and need not be composed of numbers only. It is typically used to specify the numbering of chapters, sections, list items, etc.; it may also be used in the specification of a standard reference system for the text.

xml:lang(language) indicates the language of the element content using a ‘tag’ generated according to BCP 47.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.language
<p> … The consequences of
this rapid depopulation were the loss of the last
<foreign xml:lang="rap">ariki</foreign> or chief
(Routledge 1920:205,210) and their connections to
ancestral territorial organization.</p>
Note

The xml:lang value will be inherited from the immediately enclosing element, or from its parent, and so on up the document hierarchy. It is generally good practice to specify xml:lang at the highest appropriate level, noticing that a different default may be needed for the teiHeader from that needed for the associated resource element or elements, and that a single TEI document may contain texts in many languages.

The authoritative list of registered language subtags is maintained by IANA and is available at http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry. For a good general overview of the construction of language tags, see http://www.w3.org/International/articles/language-tags/, and for a practical step-by-step guide, see https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-choosing-language-tags.en.php.

The value used must conform with BCP 47. If the value is a private use code (i.e., starts with x- or contains -x-), a <language> element with a matching value for its ident attribute should be supplied in the TEI header to document this value. Such documentation may also optionally be supplied for non-private-use codes, though these must remain consistent with their (IETF)Internet Engineering Task Force definitions.

xml:baseprovides a base URI reference with which applications can resolve relative URI references into absolute URI references.
Status Optional

Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Legal values are:

Note

The XML specification provides further guidance on the use of this attribute. Note that many parsers may not handle xml:space correctly.

att.global.analytic

rend(rendition) indicates how the element in question was rendered or presented in the source text.
Status Optional
Datatype 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.word separated by whitespace
<head rend="align(center) case(allcaps)">
 <lb/>To The <lb/>Duchesse <lb/>of <lb/>Newcastle,
<lb/>On Her <lb/>
 <hi rend="case(mixed)">New Blazing-World</hi>.
</head>
Note

These Guidelines make no binding recommendations for the values of the rend attribute; the characteristics of visual presentation vary too much from text to text and the decision to record or ignore individual characteristics varies too much from project to project. Some potentially useful conventions are noted from time to time at appropriate points in the Guidelines. The values of the rend attribute are a set of sequence-indeterminate individual tokens separated by whitespace.

stylecontains an expression in some formal style definition language which defines the rendering or presentation used for this element in the source text
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.text
<head style="text-align: center; font-variant: small-caps">
 <lb/>To The <lb/>Duchesse <lb/>of <lb/>Newcastle, <lb/>On Her
<lb/>
 <hi style="font-variant: normal">New Blazing-World</hi>.
</head>
Note

Unlike the attribute values of rend, which uses whitespace as a separator, the style attribute may contain whitespace. This attribute is intended for recording inline stylistic information concerning the source, not any particular output.

The formal language in which values for this attribute are expressed may be specified using the <styleDefDecl> element in the TEI header.

renditionpoints to a description of the rendering or presentation used for this element in the source text.
Status Optional
Datatype 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
<head rendition="#ac #sc">
 <lb/>To The <lb/>Duchesse <lb/>of <lb/>Newcastle, <lb/>On Her
<lb/>
 <hi rendition="#normal">New Blazing-World</hi>.
</head>

<rendition scheme="cssxml:id="normal">font-variant: normal</rendition>
<rendition scheme="cssxml:id="ac">text-align: center</rendition>
Note

The rendition attribute is used in a very similar way to the class attribute defined for XHTML but with the important distinction that its function is to describe the appearance of the source text, not necessarily to determine how that text should be presented on screen or paper.

Where both rendition and rend are supplied, the latter is understood to override or complement the former.

Each URI provided should indicate a rendition element defining the intended rendition in terms of some appropriate style language, as indicated by the scheme attribute.

att.global.responsibility

att.global.responsibility provides attributes indicating the agent responsible for some aspect of the text, the markup or something asserted by the markup, and the degree of certainty associated with it.

cert(certainty) signifies the degree of certainty associated with the intervention or interpretation.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.probCert
resp(responsible party) indicates the agency responsible for the intervention or interpretation, for example an editor or transcriber.
Status Optional
Datatype 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
Note

Note that a simple resp pointing to a person or organization is likely to be somewhat ambiguous with regard to the nature of the responsibility. For this reason, we recommend that resp be used to point not to an agent (person or org) but to a <respStmt>, author, editor or similar element which clarifies the exact role played by the agent. Pointing to multiple <respStmt>s allows the encoder to specify clearly each of the roles played in part of a TEI file (creating, transcribing, encoding, editing, proofing etc.).

Example
Blessed are the
<choice>
 <sic>placemakers</sic>
 <corr cert="highresp="#editor">peacemakers</corr>

mimeType(MIME media type) specifies the applicable multimedia internet mail extension (MIME) media type
Status Optional
Datatype 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.word separated by whitespace

In this example mimeType is used to indicate that the URL points to a TEI XML file encoded in UTF-8.

<ref mimeType="application/tei+xml; charset=UTF-8"
 target="http://sourceforge.net/p/tei/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/P5/Source/guidelines-en.xml"/>
Note

This attribute class provides an attribute for describing a computer resource, typically available over the internet, using a value taken from a standard taxonomy. At present only a single taxonomy is supported, the Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) Media Type system. This typology of media types is defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force in RFC 2046. The list of types is maintained by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). The mimeType attribute must have a value taken from this list.

In the example above, the <linkGrp> combines pointers at parallel fragments of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: one of them is in Polish, the other in Swahili.

Note

The value must conform to BCP 47. If the value is a private use code (i.e., starts with x- or contains -x-), a <language> element with a matching value for its ident attribute should be supplied in the TEI header to document this value. Such documentation may also optionally be supplied for non-private-use codes, though these must remain consistent with their (IETF)Internet Engineering Task Force definitions.

targetspecifies the destination of the reference by supplying one or more URI References
Status Optional
Datatype 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
Note

One or more syntactically valid URI references, separated by whitespace. Because whitespace is used to separate URIs, no whitespace is permitted inside a single URI. If a whitespace character is required in a URI, it should be escaped with the normal mechanism, e.g. TEI%20Consortium.

evaluatespecifies the intended meaning when the target of a pointer is itself a pointer.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Legal values are:
all
if the element pointed to is itself a pointer, then the target of that pointer will be taken, and so on, until an element is found which is not a pointer.
one
if the element pointed to is itself a pointer, then its target (whether a pointer or not) is taken as the target of this pointer.
none
no further evaluation of targets is carried out beyond that needed to find the element specified in the pointer's target.

Note

Attribute values will often vary depending on the type of element to which they are attached. For example, a <cl>, may take values such as coordinate, subject, adverbial etc. For a <phr>, such values as subject, predicate etc. may be more appropriate. Such constraints will typically be implemented by a project-defined customization.

att.sortable

att.sortable provides attributes for elements in lists or groups that are sortable, but whose sorting key cannot be derived mechanically from the element content. [9.1. Dictionary Body and Overall Structure]

Note

The sort key is used to determine the sequence and grouping of entries in an index. It provides a sequence of characters which, when sorted with the other values, will produced the desired order; specifics of sort key construction are application-dependent

Dictionary order often differs from the collation sequence of machine-readable character sets; in English-language dictionaries, an entry for 4-H will often appear alphabetized under ‘fourh’, and McCoy may be alphabetized under ‘maccoy’, while A1, A4, and A5 may all appear in numeric order ‘alphabetized’ between ‘a-’ and ‘AA’. The sort key is required if the orthography of the dictionary entry does not suffice to determine its location.

Note

The span is defined as running in document order from the start of the content of the pointing element to the end of the content of the element pointed to by the spanTo attribute (if any). If no value is supplied for the attribute, the assumption is that the span is coextensive with the pointing element. If no content is present, the assumption is that the starting point of the span is immediately following the element itself.

Note

Status information on each deletion is needed rather rarely except in critical editions from authorial manuscripts; status information on additions is even less common.

Marking a deletion or addition as faulty is inescapably an interpretive act; the usual test applied in practice is the linguistic acceptability of the text with and without the letters or words in question.

Note

A duration is expressed as a sequence of number-letter pairs, preceded by the letter P; the letter gives the unit and may be Y (year), M (month), D (day), H (hour), M (minute), or S (second), in that order. The numbers are all unsigned integers, except for the last, which may have a decimal component (using either . or , as the decimal point; the latter is preferred). If any number is 0, then that number-letter pair may be omitted. If any of the H (hour), M (minute), or S (second) number-letter pairs are present, then the separator T must precede the first ‘time’ number-letter pair.

Declaration
teidata.language = xsd:language | ( "" )
Note

The values for this attribute are language ‘tags’ as defined in BCP 47. Currently BCP 47 comprises RFC 5646 and RFC 4647; over time, other IETF documents may succeed these as the best current practice.

A ‘language tag’, per BCP 47, is assembled from a sequence of components or subtags separated by the hyphen character (-, U+002D). The tag is made of the following subtags, in the following order. Every subtag except the first is optional. If present, each occurs only once, except the fourth and fifth components (variant and extension), which are repeatable.

language
The IANA-registered code for the language. This is almost always the same as the ISO 639 2-letter language code if there is one. The list of available registered language subtags can be found at http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry. It is recommended that this code be written in lower case.
script
The ISO 15924 code for the script. These codes consist of 4 letters, and it is recommended they be written with an initial capital, the other three letters in lower case. The canonical list of codes is maintained by the Unicode Consortium, and is available at http://unicode.org/iso15924/iso15924-codes.html. The IETF recommends this code be omitted unless it is necessary to make a distinction you need.
region
Either an ISO 3166 country code or a UN M.49 region code that is registered with IANA (not all such codes are registered, e.g. UN codes for economic groupings or codes for countries for which there is already an ISO 3166 2-letter code are not registered). The former consist of 2 letters, and it is recommended they be written in upper case; the list of codes can be searched or browsed at https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#search/code/. The latter consist of 3 digits; the list of codes can be found at http://unstats.un.org/unsd/methods/m49/m49.htm.
variant
An IANA-registered variation. These codes are used to indicate additional, well-recognized variations that define a language or its dialects that are not covered by other available subtags.
extension
An extension has the format of a single letter followed by a hyphen followed by additional subtags. These exist to allow for future extension to BCP 47, but as of this writing no such extensions are in use.
private use
An extension that uses the initial subtag of the single letter x (i.e., starts with x-) has no meaning except as negotiated among the parties involved. These should be used with great care, since they interfere with the interoperability that use of RFC 4646 is intended to promote. In order for a document that makes use of these subtags to be TEI-conformant, a corresponding <language> element must be present in the TEI header.

There are two exceptions to the above format. First, there are language tags in the IANA registry that do not match the above syntax, but are present because they have been ‘grandfathered’ from previous specifications.

Second, an entire language tag can consist of only a private use subtag. These tags start with x-, and do not need to follow any further rules established by the IETF and endorsed by these Guidelines. Like all language tags that make use of private use subtags, the language in question must be documented in a corresponding <language> element in the TEI header.

Declaration
teidata.numeric =
   xsd:double | token { pattern = "(\-?[\d]+/\-?[\d]+)" } | xsd:decimal
Note

Any numeric value, represented as a decimal number, in floating point format, or as a ratio.

To represent a floating point number, expressed in scientific notation, ‘E notation’, a variant of ‘exponential notation’, may be used. In this format, the value is expressed as two numbers separated by the letter E. The first number, the significand (sometimes called the mantissa) is given in decimal format, while the second is an integer. The value is obtained by multiplying the mantissa by 10 the number of times indicated by the integer. Thus the value represented in decimal notation as 1000.0 might be represented in scientific notation as 10E3.

A value expressed as a ratio is represented by two integer values separated by a solidus (/) character. Thus, the value represented in decimal notation as 0.5 might be represented as a ratio by the string 1/2.

Note
A regular expression, often called a pattern, is an expression that describes a set of strings. They are usually used to give a concise description of a set, without having to list all elements. For example, the set containing the three strings Handel, Händel, and Haendel can be described by the pattern H(ä|ae?)ndel (or alternatively, it is said that the pattern H(ä|ae?)ndel matches each of the three strings)

 | token { pattern = "[0-9.,DHMPRSTWYZ/:+\-]+" }
Note

If it is likely that the value used is to be compared with another, then a time zone indicator should always be included, and only the dateTime representation should be used.

For all representations for which ISO 8601 describes both a basic and an extended format, these Guidelines recommend use of the extended format.

While ISO 8601 permits the use of both 00:00 and 24:00 to represent midnight, these Guidelines strongly recommend against the use of 24:00.

teidata.temporal.w3c

teidata.text

teidata.text defines the range of attribute values used to express some kind of identifying string as a single sequence of unicode characters possibly including whitespace.
Moduletei — Formal definitions
Used by
Element:
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef name="string"/>
</content>
Declaration
teidata.text = string
Note

Attributes using this datatype must contain a single ‘token’ in which whitespace and other punctuation characters are permitted.

teidata.truthValue

teidata.truthValue defines the range of attribute values used to express a truth value.
Moduletei — Formal definitions
Used by
Element:
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef name="boolean"/>
</content>
Declaration
teidata.truthValue = xsd:boolean
Note

The possible values of this datatype are 1 or true, or 0 or false.

This datatype applies only for cases where uncertainty is inappropriate; if the attribute concerned may have a value other than true or false, e.g. unknown, or inapplicable, it should have the extended version of this datatype: data.xTruthValue.

teidata.version

teidata.version defines the range of attribute values which may be used to specify a TEI or Unicode version number.
Moduletei — Formal definitions
Used by
Element:
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef name="token"
  restriction="[\d]+(\.[\d]+){0,2}"/>

</content>
Declaration
teidata.version = token { pattern = "[\d]+(\.[\d]+){0,2}" }
Note

The value of this attribute follows the pattern specified by the Unicode consortium for its version number (http://unicode.org/versions/). A version number contains digits and fullstop characters only. The first number supplied identifies the major version number. A second and third number, for minor and sub-minor version numbers, may also be supplied.

teidata.versionNumber

teidata.versionNumber defines the range of attribute values used for version numbers.

Declaration
teidata.word = token { pattern = "(\p{L}|\p{N}|\p{P}|\p{S})+" }
Note

Attributes using this datatype must contain a single ‘word’ which contains only letters, digits, punctuation characters, or symbols: thus it cannot include whitespace.

teidata.xTruthValue

teidata.xTruthValue (extended truth value) defines the range of attribute values used to express a truth value which may be unknown.
