Sunoikisis Digital Classics session 4
This session introduces semantic text encoding through TEI (Text Encoding Initiative) and EpiDoc XML, a scheme for the digital representation, analysis and publication of epigraphic, papyrological and other ancient texts. We discuss the scholarly value of XML encoding, some of the assumptions behind the TEI and EpiDoc principles, and show a couple of major projects and tools. Students have the opportunity to try out text encoding for themselves, via online tutorials and a suggested exercise.
