Prefatory note

TEI Lite was the name adopted for what the TEI editors originally conceived of as a simple demonstration of how the TEI (Text Encoding Initiative) encoding scheme might be adopted to meet 90% of the needs of 90% of the TEI user community. In retrospect, it was predictable that many people should imagine TEI Lite to be all there is to TEI, or find TEI Lite to be far too heavy for their needs.

The original TEI Lite (1996) was based largely on observations of existing and previous practice in the encoding of texts, particularly as manifest in the collections of the Oxford Text Archive and other collections of the period. It is therefore unsurprising that it seems to have become, if not a de facto standard, at least a common point of departure for electronic text centres and encoding projects world wide. Maybe the fact that we actually produced this shortish, readable, manual for it also helped.

Early adopters of TEI Lite included a number of ‘Electronic Text Centers’ and digital library initiatives. It was also adopted as the basis for some early TEI-conformant authoring systems, and as the basis for introductory tutorials, many of them in languages other than English (see further the list of legacy versions at http://www.tei-c.org/Vault/P4/Lite/).

In 2002, following the publication of TEI P4, the XML version of the TEI Guidelines, which uses the generation of TEI Lite as an example of the TEI modification mechanism, the opportunity was taken to produce a lightly revised XML-conformant version. In 2006, a more substantially revised version based on TEI P5 was produced; this reflected the many changes between TEI P4 and TEI P5, but was not otherwise significantly different. In 2012, the TEI Technical Council, decided that a final revision should be undertaken to ensure that the documentation remained consistent with the latest (2.1) release of TEI P5. This version uses a recently added mechanism in the TEI customization architecture, which permits a customization to define only the TEI elements to be included in a schema, rather than the elements to be excluded from it. As such it is probably more resilient to change than earlier versions.

Table of contents

Guidelines for Electronic Text Encoding and Interchange, as of February 2006, and available from the TEI Consortium website at http://www.tei-c.org/. Specification for the project XML-TEI Bible. This document provides an introduction to the recommendations of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI), by describing a specific subset of the full TEI encoding scheme. The scheme documented here can be used to encode a wide variety of commonly encountered textual features, in such a way as to maximize the usability of electronic transcriptions and to facilitate their interchange among scholars using different computer systems. It is fully compatible with the full TEI scheme, as defined by TEI document P5, Guidelines for Electronic Text Encoding and Interchange, as of February 2006, and available from the TEI Consortium website at .

1. Introduction

The Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) Guidelines are addressed to anyone who wants to interchange information stored in an electronic form. They emphasize the interchange of textual information, but other forms of information such as images and sound are also addressed. The Guidelines are equally applicable in the creation of new resources and in the interchange of existing ones.

The Guidelines provide a means of making explicit certain features of a text in such a way as to aid the processing of that text by computer software running on different machines. This process of making explicit we call markup or encoding. Any textual representation on a computer uses some form of markup; the TEI came into being partly because of the enormous variety of mutually incomprehensible encoding schemes currently besetting scholarship, and partly because of the expanding range of scholarly uses now being identified for texts in electronic form.

The TEI Guidelines describe an encoding scheme which can be expressed using a number of different formal languages. The first editions of the Guidelines used the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML); since 2002, this has been replaced by the use of the Extensible Markup Language (XML). These markup languages have in common the definition of text in terms of elements and attributes, and rules governing their appearance within a text. The TEI's use of XML is ambitious in its complexity and generality, but it is fundamentally no different from that of any other XML markup scheme, and so any general-purpose XML-aware software is able to process TEI-conformant texts.

Since 2001, the TEI has been a community initiative supported by an international membership consortium. It was originally an international research project sponsored by the Association for Computers and the Humanities, the Association for Computational Linguistics, and the Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing, with substantial funding over its first five years from the U.S. National Endowment for the Humanities, Directorate General XIII of the Commission of the European Communities, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada and others. The Guidelines were first published in May 1994, after six years of development involving many hundreds of scholars from different academic disciplines worldwide. During the years that followed, the Guidelines became increasingly influential in the development of the digital library, in the language industries, and even in the development of the World Wide Web itself. The TEI Consortium was set up in January 2001, and a year later produced an edition of the Guidelines entirely revised for XML compatibility. In 2004, it set about a major revision of the Guidelines to take full advantage of new schema languages, the first release of which appeared in 2005. This revision of the TEI Lite document conforms to version 2.1 of this most recent edition of the Guidelines, TEI P5, released in June 2012.

At the outset of its work, the overall goals of the TEI were defined by the closing statement of a planning conference held at Vassar College, N.Y., in November, 1987; these ‘Poughkeepsie Principles’ were further elaborated in a series of design documents. The Guidelines, say these design documents, should:

The world of scholarship is large and diverse. For the Guidelines to have wide acceptability, it was important to ensure that:

  1. the common core of textual features be easily shared;
  2. additional specialist features be easy to add to (or remove from) a text;
  3. multiple parallel encodings of the same feature should be possible;
  4. the richness of markup should be user-defined, with a very small minimal requirement;
  5. adequate documentation of the text and its encoding should be provided.

The present document describes a manageable selection from the extensive set of elements and recommendations resulting from those design goals, which is called TEI Lite.

In selecting from the several hundred elements defined by the full TEI scheme, we have tried to identify a useful ‘starter set’, comprising the elements which almost every user should know about. Experience working with TEI Lite will be invaluable in understanding the full TEI scheme and in knowing how to integrate specialized parts of it into the general TEI framework.

Our goals in defining this subset may be summarized as follows:

The reader may judge our success in meeting these goals for him or herself.

Although we have tried to make this document self-contained, as suits a tutorial text, the reader should be aware that it does not cover every detail of the TEI encoding scheme. All of the elements described here are fully documented in the TEI Guidelines themselves, which should be consulted for authoritative reference information on these, and on the many others which are not described here. Some basic knowledge of XML is assumed.

2. A Short Example

We begin with a short example, intended to show what happens when a passage of prose is typed into a computer by someone with little sense of the purpose of mark-up, or the potential of electronic texts. In an ideal world, such output might be generated by a very accurate optical scanner. It attempts to be faithful to the appearance of the printed text, by retaining the original line breaks, by introducing blanks to represent the layout of the original headings and page breaks, and so forth. Where characters not available on the keyboard are needed (such as the accented letter a in faàl or the long dash), it attempts to mimic their appearance.

                                CHAPTER 38

READER, I married him. A quiet wedding we had: he and I, the par-
son and clerk, were alone present. When we got back from church, I
went into the kitchen of the manor-house, where Mary was cooking
the dinner, and John cleaning the knives, and I said --
  'Mary, I have been married to Mr Rochester this morning.' The
housekeeper and her husband were of that decent, phlegmatic
order of people, to whom one may at any time safely communicate a
remarkable piece of news without incurring the danger of having
one's ears pierced by some shrill ejaculation and subsequently stunned
by a torrent of wordy wonderment. Mary did look up, and she did
stare at me; the ladle with which she was basting a pair of chickens
roasting at the fire, did for some three minutes hang suspended in air,
and for the same space of time John's knives also had rest from the
polishing process; but Mary, bending again over the roast, said only --
   'Have you, miss? Well, for sure!'
   A short time after she pursued, 'I seed you go out with the master,
but I didn't know you were gone to church to be wed'; and she
basted away. John, when I turned to him, was grinning from ear to
ear.
   'I telled Mary how it would be,' he said: 'I knew what Mr Ed-
ward' (John was an old servant, and had known his master when he
was the cadet of the house, therefore he often gave him his Christian
name) -- 'I knew what Mr Edward would do; and I was certain he
would not wait long either: and he's done right, for aught I know. I
wish you joy, miss!' and he politely pulled his forelock.
   'Thank you, John. Mr Rochester told me to give you and Mary
this.'
   I put into his hand a five-pound note.  Without waiting to hear
more, I left the kitchen. In passing the door of that sanctum some time
after, I caught the words --
   'She'll happen do better for him nor ony o' t' grand ladies.' And
again, 'If she ben't one o' th' handsomest, she's noan faa\l, and varry
good-natured; and i' his een she's fair beautiful, onybody may see
that.'
   I wrote to Moor House and to Cambridge immediately, to say what
I had done: fully explaining also why I had thus acted. Diana and

                            474

                 JANE EYRE                      475

Mary approved the step unreservedly. Diana announced that she
would just give me time to get over the honeymoon, and then she
would come and see me.
   'She had better not wait till then, Jane,' said Mr Rochester, when I
read her letter to him; 'if she does, she will be too late, for our honey-
moon will shine our life long: its beams will only fade over your
grave or mine.'
   How St John received the news I don't know: he never answered
the letter in which I communicated it: yet six months after he wrote
to me, without, however, mentioning Mr Rochester's name or allud-
ing to my marriage. His letter was then calm, and though very serious,
kind. He has maintained a regular, though not very frequent correspond-
ence ever since: he hopes I am happy, and trusts I am not of those who
live without God in the world, and only mind earthly things.

      

This transcription suffers from a number of shortcomings:

We now present the same passage, as it might be encoded using the TEI Guidelines. As we shall see, there are many ways in which this encoding could be extended, but as a minimum, the TEI approach allows us to represent the following distinctions:

This particular encoding represents a set of choices or priorities. As a trivial example, note that in the second example, end-of-line hyphenation has been silently removed. Conceivably Brontë (or her printer) intended the word ‘honeymoon’ to appear as ‘honey-moon’ on its second appearance, though this seems unlikely: our decision to focus on Brontë's text, rather than on the printing of it in this particular edition, makes it impossible to be certain. This is an instance of the fundamental selectivity of any encoding. An encoding makes explicit only those textual features of importance to the encoder. It is not difficult to think of ways in which the encoding of even this short passage might readily be extended. For example:

TEI-recommended ways of carrying out most of these are described in the remainder of this document. The TEI scheme as a whole also provides for an enormous range of other possibilities, of which we cite only a few:

For recommendations on these and many other possibilities, the full Guidelines should be consulted.

3. The Structure of a TEI Text

All TEI-conformant texts contain (a) a TEI header (marked up as a <teiHeader> element) and (b) the transcription of the text proper (marked up as a <text> element). These two elements are combined together to form a single <TEI> element, which must be declared within the TEI namespace1.

The TEI header provides information analogous to that provided by the title page of a printed text. It has up to four parts: a bibliographic description of the machine-readable text, a description of the way it has been encoded, a non-bibliographic description of the text (a text profile), and a revision history. The header is described in more detail in section 19. The Electronic Title Page.

A TEI text may be unitary (a single work) or composite (a collection of single works, such as an anthology). In either case, the text may have an optional front or back. In between is the body of the text, which, in the case of a composite text, may consist of groups, each containing more groups or texts.

A unitary text will be encoded using an overall structure like this:
<TEI xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0">  <teiHeader> <!-- [ TEI Header information ] -->  </teiHeader>  <text>   <front> <!-- [ front matter ... ] -->   </front>   <body> <!-- [ body of text ... ] -->   </body>   <back> <!-- [ back matter ... ] -->   </back>  </text> </TEI>
A composite text also has an optional front and back. In between occur one or more groups of texts, each with its own optional front and back matter. A composite text will thus be encoded using an overall structure like this:
<TEI xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0">  <teiHeader> <!--[ header information for the composite ]-->  </teiHeader>  <text>   <front> <!--[ front matter for the composite ]-->   </front>   <group>    <text>     <front> <!--[ front matter of first text ]-->     </front>     <body> <!--[ body of first text ]-->     </body>     <back> <!--[ back matter of first text ]-->     </back>    </text>    <text>     <front> <!--[ front matter of second text]-->     </front>     <body> <!--[ body of second text ]-->     </body>     <back> <!--[ back matter of second text ]-->     </back>    </text> <!--[ more texts or groups of texts here ]-->   </group>   <back> <!--[ back matter for the composite ]-->   </back>  </text> </TEI>
It is also possible to define a composite of complete TEI texts, each with its own header. Such a collection is known as a TEI corpus, and may itself have a header:
<teiCorpus xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0">  <teiHeader> <!--[header information for the corpus]-->  </teiHeader>  <TEI>   <teiHeader> <!--[header information for first text]-->   </teiHeader>   <text> <!--[first text in corpus]-->   </text>  </TEI>  <TEI>   <teiHeader> <!--[header information for second text]-->   </teiHeader>   <text> <!--[second text in corpus]-->   </text>  </TEI> </teiCorpus>
It is also possible to create a composite of corpora -- that is, one <teiCorpus> element may contain many nested <teiCorpus> elements rather than many nested <TEI> elements, to any depth considered necessary.

In the remainder of this document, we discuss chiefly simple text structures. The discussion in each case consists of a short list of relevant TEI elements with a brief definition of each, followed by definitions for any attributes specific to that element, and a reference to any classes of which the element is a member. These references are linked to full specifications for each object, as given in the TEI Guidelines. In most cases, short examples are also given.

For example, here are the elements discussed so far:

4. Encoding the Body

As indicated above, a simple TEI document at the textual level consists of the following elements:

Elements specific to front and back matter are described below in section 18. Front and Back Matter. In this section we discuss the elements making up the body of a text.

4.1. Text Division Elements

The body of a prose text may be just a series of paragraphs, or these paragraphs may be grouped together into chapters, sections, subsections, etc. Each paragraph is tagged using the <p> tag. The <div> element is used to represent any such grouping of paragraphs.

The type attribute on the <div> element may be used to supply a conventional name for this category of text division, or otherwise distinguish them. Typical values might be ‘book’, ‘chapter’, ‘section’, ‘part’, ‘poem’, ‘song’, etc. For a given project, it will usually be advisable to define and adhere to a specific list of such values.

A <div> element may itself contain further, nested, <div>s, thus mimicking the traditional structure of a book, which can be decomposed hierarchically into units such as parts, containing chapters, containing sections, and so on. TEI texts in general conform to this simple hierarchic model.

The xml:id attribute may be used to supply a unique identifier for the division, which may be used for cross references or other links to it, such as a commentary, as further discussed in section 8. Cross References and Links. It is often useful to provide an xml:id attribute for every major structural unit in a text, and to derive its values in some systematic way, for example by appending a section number to a short code for the title of the work in question, as in the examples below. It is particularly useful to supply such identifiers if the resource concerned is to be made available over the web, since they make it much easier for other web-based applications to link directly to the corresponding parts of your text.

The n attribute may be used to supply (additionally or alternatively) a short mnemonic name or number for a division, or any other element. If a conventional form of reference or abbreviation for the parts of a work already exists (such as the book/chapter/verse pattern of Biblical citations), the n attribute is the place to record it; unlike the identifier supplied by xml:id, it does not need to be unique.

The xml:lang attribute may be used to specify the language of the division. Languages are identified by an internationally defined code, as further discussed in section 6.3. Foreign Words or Expressions below.

The rend attribute may be used to supply information about the rendition (appearance) of a division, or any other element, as further discussed in section 6. Marking Highlighted Phrases below. As with the type attribute, a project will often find it useful to predefine the possible values for this attribute, but TEI Lite does not constrain it in anyway.

These four attributes, xml:id, n, xml:lang, and rend are so widely useful that they are allowed on any element in any TEI schema: they are global attributes. Other global attributes defined in the TEI Lite scheme are discussed in section 8.3. Special kinds of Linking.

The value of every xml:id attribute should be unique within a document. One simple way of ensuring that this is so is to make it reflect the hierarchic structure of the document. For example, Smith's Wealth of Nations as first published consists of five books, each of which is divided into chapters, while some chapters are further subdivided into parts. We might define xml:id values for this structure as follows:
<body>  <div n="Itype="bookxml:id="WN1">   <div n="I.1type="chapterxml:id="WN101"> <!-- ... -->   </div>   <div n="I.2type="chapterxml:id="WN102"> <!-- ... -->   </div> <!-- ... -->   <div n="I.10type="chapter"    xml:id="WN110">    <div n="I.10.1type="part"     xml:id="WN1101"> <!-- ... -->    </div>    <div n="I.10.2type="part"     xml:id="WN1102"> <!-- ... -->    </div>   </div> <!-- ... -->  </div>  <div n="IItype="bookxml:id="WN2"> <!-- ... -->  </div> </body>
A different numbering scheme may be used for xml:id and n attributes: this is often useful where a canonical reference scheme is used which does not tally with the structure of the work. For example, in a novel divided into books each containing chapters, where the chapters are numbered sequentially through the whole work, rather than within each book, one might use a scheme such as the following:
<body>  <div n="1type="volumexml:id="TS01">   <div n="1type="chapterxml:id="TS011"> <!-- ... -->   </div>   <div n="2type="chapterxml:id="TS012"> <!-- ... -->   </div>  </div>  <div n="2type="volumexml:id="TS02">   <div n="3type="chapterxml:id="TS021"> <!-- ... -->   </div>   <div n="4type="chapterxml:id="TS022"> <!-- ... -->   </div>  </div> </body>
Here the work has two volumes, each containing two chapters. The chapters are numbered conventionally 1 to 4, but the xml:id values specified allow them to be regarded additionally as if they were numbered 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2.

4.2. Headings and Closings

Every <div> may have a title or heading at its start, and (less commonly) a trailer such as ‘End of Chapter 1’ at its end. The following elements may be used to transcribe them:

Some other elements which may be necessary at the beginning or ending of text divisions are discussed below in section 18.1.2. Prefatory Matter.

Whether or not headings and trailers are included in a transcription is a matter for the individual transcriber to decide. Where a heading is completely regular (for example ‘Chapter 1’) or may be automatically constructed from attribute values (e.g. <div type="chapter" n="1">), it may be omitted; where it contains otherwise unrecoverable text it should always be included. For example, the start of Hardy's Under the Greenwood Tree might be encoded as follows:
<div n="Wintertype="Partxml:id="UGT1">  <div n="1type="Chapterxml:id="UGT11">   <head>Mellstock-Lane</head>   <p>To dwellers in a wood almost every species of tree ... </p>  </div> </div>

4.3. Prose, Verse and Drama

As in the Bronte example above, the paragraphs making up a textual division are tagged with the <p> tag. In poetic or dramatic texts different tags are needed, to represent verse lines and stanzas in the first case, or individual speeches and stage directions in the second. :

Here, for example, is the start of a poetic text in which verse lines and stanzas are tagged:
<lg n="I">  <l>I Sing the progresse of a    deathlesse soule,</l>  <l>Whom Fate, with God made, but doth not controule,</l>  <l>Plac'd in    most shapes; all times before the law</l>  <l>Yoak'd us, and when, and since, in this I    sing.</l>  <l>And the great world to his aged evening;</l>  <l>From infant morne, through manly    noone I draw.</l>  <l>What the gold Chaldee, of silver Persian saw,</l>  <l>Greeke brass, or    Roman iron, is in this one;</l>  <l>A worke t'out weare Seths pillars, bricke and    stone,</l>  <l>And (holy writs excepted) made to yeeld to none,</l> </lg>

Note that the <l> element marks verse lines, not typographic lines: the original lineation of the first few lines above has not therefore been made explicit by this encoding, and may be lost. The <lb> element described in section 5. Page and Line Numbers might additionally be used to mark typographic lines if so desired.

Here is the end of a famous dramatic text, in which speeches and stage directions are marked:
<sp>  <speaker>Vladimir</speaker>  <p>Pull on your trousers.</p> </sp> <sp>  <speaker>Estragon</speaker>  <p>You want me to pull off my trousers?</p> </sp> <sp>  <speaker>Vladimir</speaker>  <p>Pull <emph>on</emph> your trousers.</p> </sp> <sp>  <speaker>Vladimir</speaker>  <p>   <stage>(realizing his trousers are down)</stage>.    True</p> </sp> <stage>He pulls up his trousers</stage> <sp>  <speaker>Vladimir</speaker>  <p>Well? Shall we go?</p> </sp> <sp>  <speaker>Estragon</speaker>  <p>Yes, let's go.</p> </sp> <stage>They do not move.</stage>
Note that the <stage> (stage direction) element can appear either within a speech or between speeches. The <sp> ("speech") element contains, following an optional <speaker> element indicating who is speaking, either paragraphs (if the speech is in prose) or verse lines or stanzas as in the next example. In this case, it is quite common to find that verse lines are split between speakers. The easiest way of encoding this is to use the part attribute to indicate that the lines so fragmented are incomplete :
<div n="Itype="Act">  <head>ACT I</head>  <div n="1type="Scene">   <head>SCENE I</head>   <stage rend="italic"> Enter Barnardo and Francisco, two Sentinels, at several doors</stage>   <sp>    <speaker>Barn</speaker>    <l part="Y">Who's there?</l>   </sp>   <sp>    <speaker>Fran</speaker>    <l>Nay, answer me. Stand and unfold yourself.</l>   </sp>   <sp>    <speaker>Barn</speaker>    <l part="I">Long live the King!</l>   </sp>   <sp>    <speaker>Fran</speaker>    <l part="M">Barnardo?</l>   </sp>   <sp>    <speaker>Barn</speaker>    <l part="F">He.</l>   </sp>   <sp>    <speaker>Fran</speaker>    <l>You come most carefully upon your hour.</l>   </sp> <!-- ... -->  </div> </div>
The same mechanism may be applied to stanzas which are divided between two speakers:
<div>  <sp>   <speaker>First voice</speaker>   <lg part="Itype="stanza">    <l>But why drives on that ship so fast</l>    <l>Withouten wave or wind?</l>   </lg>  </sp>  <sp>   <speaker>Second Voice</speaker>   <lg part="F">    <l>The air is cut away before.</l>    <l>And closes from behind.</l>   </lg>  </sp> <!-- ... --> </div>
The <sp> element can also be used for dialogue presented in a prose work as if it were drama, as in the next example, which also demonstrates the use of the who attribute to bear a code identifying the speaker of the piece of dialogue concerned:
<div>  <sp who="#OPI">   <speaker>The reverend Doctor Opimian</speaker>   <p>I do not think I have named a single unpresentable fish.</p>  </sp>  <sp who="#GRM">   <speaker>Mr Gryll</speaker>   <p>Bream, Doctor: there is not much to be said for bream.</p>  </sp>  <sp who="#OPI">   <speaker>The Reverend Doctor Opimian</speaker>   <p>On the contrary, sir, I think there is much to be said for him. In the first      place....</p>   <p>Fish, Miss Gryll -- I could discourse to you on fish by the hour: but for the present I      will forbear.</p>  </sp> </div>
Here the who attribute values (#OPI etc.) are links, pointing to a list of the characters in the novel, each of which has an identifier:
<list>  <head>Characters in the novel</head>  <item xml:id="OPI">   <name>Dr Opimian</name> : named for the famous Roman fine wine</item>  <item xml:id="GRM">   <name>Mr Gryll</name> : named for the mythical Gryllus, one of Ulysses'    sailors transformed by Circe into a pig, who argues that he was happier in that state than    as a man</item> </list>

5. Page and Line Numbers

Page and line breaks etc. may be marked with the following elements.

These elements mark a single point in the text, not a span of text. The global n attribute should be used to supply the number of the page or line beginning at the tag.

When working from a paginated original, it is often useful to record its pagination, if only to simplify later proof-reading. It is also useful for synchronizing an encoded text with a set of page images. Recording the line breaks may be useful for similar reasons.

If features such as pagination or lineation are marked for more than one edition, specify the edition in question using the ed attribute, and supply as many tags are necessary. For example, in the following passage we indicate where the page breaks occur in two different editions (ED1 and ED2)
<p>I wrote to Moor House and to Cambridge immediately, to say what I had done: fully explaining also why I had thus acted. Diana and <pb ed="ED1n="475"/> Mary approved the step unreservedly. Diana announced that she would <pb ed="ED2n="485"/>just give me time to get over the honeymoon, and then she would come and see me.</p>

A special attribute break may be used to indicate whether or not this empty element is considered as a word-breaking, irrespective of any adjacent whitespace. For example, in the following encoded sample:

The <pb> and <lb> elements are special cases of the general class of milestone elements which mark reference points within a text. The generic <milestone> element can mark any kind of reference point: for example, a column break, the start of a new kind of section not otherwise tagged, or in general any significant change in the text not marked by an XML element. The names used for types of unit and for editions referred to by the ed and unit attributes may be chosen freely, but should be documented in the header <refsDecl> element (see 19.2.3. Reference and Classification Declarations). The <milestone> element may be used to replace the others, or the others may be used as a set; they should not be mixed arbitrarily.

6. Marking Highlighted Phrases

6.1. Changes of Typeface, etc.

Highlighted words or phrases are those made visibly different from the rest of the text, typically by a change of type font, handwriting style, ink colour etc., which is intended to draw the reader's attention to some associated change.

The global rend attribute can be attached to any element, and used wherever necessary to specify details of the highlighting used for it in the source. For example, a heading rendered in bold might be tagged <head rend="bold">, and one in italic <head rend="italic">.

The values to be used for the rend attribute are not specified by the TEI Guidelines, since they will depend entirely on the needs of the particular project. Some typical values might include italic, bold etc. for font variations; center, right etc. for alignment; large, small etc. for size; smallcaps, allcaps etc. for type variants and so on. Several such words may be used in combination as necessary, but no formal syntax is proposed. The full TEI Guidelines provide more rigorous mechanisms, using other W3C standards such as CSS, as an alternative to the use of rend.

It is not always possible or desirable to interpret the reasons for such changes of rendering in a text. In such cases, the element <hi> may be used to mark a sequence of highlighted text without making any claim as to its status.

In the following example, the use of a distinct typeface for the subheading and for the included name are recorded but not interpreted:
<p>  <hi rend="gothic">And this Indenture further    witnesseth</hi> that the said <hi rend="italic">Walter Shandy</hi>, merchant, in consideration of the said intended marriage ... </p>

Alternatively, where the cause for the highlighting can be identified with confidence, a number of other, more specific, elements are available.

Some features (notably quotations and glosses) may be found in a text either marked by highlighting, or with quotation marks. In either case, the elements <q> and <gloss> (as discussed in the following section) should be used. If the highlighting is to be recorded, use the global rend attribute.

As an example of the elements defined here, consider the following sentence:
On the one hand the Nibelungenlied is associated with the new rise of romance of twelfth-century France, the romans d'antiquité, the romances of Chrétien de Troyes, and the German adaptations of these works by Heinrich van Veldeke, Hartmann von Aue, and Wolfram von Eschenbach.
Interpreting the role of the highlighting, the sentence might look like this:
<p>On the one hand the <title>Nibelungenlied</title> is associated with the new rise of romance of twelfth-century France, the <foreign>romans    d'antiquité</foreign>, the romances of Chrétien de Troyes, ...</p>
Describing only the appearance of the original, it might look like this:
<p>On the one hand the <hi rend="italic">Nibelungenlied</hi> is associated with the new rise of romance of twelfth-century France, the <hi rend="italic">romans d'antiquité</hi>, the romances of Chrétien de Troyes, ...</p>

6.2. Quotations and Related Features

Like changes of typeface, quotation marks are conventionally used to denote several different features within a text, of which the most frequent is quotation. When possible, we recommend that the underlying feature be tagged, rather than the simple fact that quotation marks appear in the text, using the following elements:

Here is a simple example of a quotation:
<p>Few dictionary makers are likely to forget Dr. Johnson's description of the lexicographer as <q>a harmless drudge.</q> </p>

To record how a quotation was printed (for example, in-line or set off as a display or block quotation), the rend attribute should be used. This may also be used to indicate the kind of quotation marks used.

Direct speech interrupted by a narrator can be represented simply by ending the quotation and beginning it again after the interruption, as in the following example:
<p>  <q>Who-e debel you?</q> — he at last said — <q>you no speak-e, damme, I kill-e.</q> And so saying, the lighted tomahawk began flourishing about me in the dark. </p>
If it is important to convey the idea that the two <q> elements together make up a single speech, the linking attributes next and prev may be used, as described in section 8.3. Special kinds of Linking.
Quotations may be accompanied by a reference to the source or speaker, using the who attribute, whether or not this is explicit in the text, as in the following example:
<q who="#Wilson">Spaulding, he came down into the office just this day eight weeks with this very paper in his hand, and he says:—<q who="#Spaulding">I wish to the Lord, Mr. Wilson, that I was a red-headed    man.</q> </q>
This example also demonstrates how quotations may be embedded within other quotations: one speaker (Wilson) quotes another speaker (Spaulding).

The creator of the electronic text must decide whether quotation marks are replaced by the tags or whether the tags are added and the quotation marks kept. If the quotation marks are removed from the text, the rend attribute may be used to record the way in which they were rendered in the copy text.

The full TEI Guidelines provide additional elements to distinguish direct speech, quotation, and other typical uses of quotation mark although it is not always possible and may not be considered desirable to interpret the function of quotation marks in a text. For simplicity, only <q> (which may be used for any such case) has been included in TEI Lite.

6.3. Foreign Words or Expressions

Words or phrases which are not in the main language of the texts may be tagged as such in one of two ways. If the word or phrase is already tagged for some reason, the element indicated should bear a value for the global xml:lang attribute indicating the language used. Where there is no applicable element, the element <foreign> may be used, again using the xml:lang attribute. For example:
<p>John has real <foreign xml:lang="fr">savoir-faire</foreign>.</p> <p>Have you read <title xml:lang="de">Die    Dreigroschenoper</title>?</p> <p>  <mentioned xml:lang="fr">Savoir-faire</mentioned> is French for know-how. </p> <p>The court issued a writ of <term xml:lang="la">mandamus</term>.</p>

As these examples show, the <foreign> element should not be used to tag foreign words if some other more specific element such as <title>, <mentioned>, or <term> applies. The global xml:lang attribute may be attached to any element to show that it uses some other language than that of the surrounding text.

The codes used to identify languages, supplied on the xml:lang attribute, must be constructed in a particular way, and must conform to common Internet standards2, as further explained in the relevant section of the TEI Guidelines. Some simple example codes for a few languages are given here:

zhChinesegrcAncient Greek
enEnglishelGreek
enmMiddle EnglishjaJapanese
frFrenchlaLatin
deGermansaSanskrit

7. Notes

All notes, whether printed as footnotes, endnotes, marginalia, or elsewhere, should be marked using the same element:

Where possible, the body of a note should be inserted in the text at the point at which its identifier or mark first appears. This may not be possible for example with marginalia, which may not be anchored to an exact location. For simplicity, it may be adequate to position marginal notes before the relevant paragraph or other element. Notes may also be placed in a separate division of the text (as end-notes are, in printed books) and linked to the relevant portion of the text using their target attribute.

The n attribute may be used to supply the number or identifier of a note if this is required. The resp attribute should be used consistently to distinguish between authorial and editorial notes, if the work has both kinds.

Examples:
<p>Collections are ensembles of distinct entities or objects of any sort. <note n="1place="foot"> We explain below why we    use the uncommon term <mentioned>collection</mentioned> instead of the expected  <mentioned>set</mentioned>. Our usage corresponds to the <mentioned>aggregate</mentioned>    of many mathematical writings and to the sense of <mentioned>class</mentioned> found in    older logical writings. </note> The elements ...</p>
<lg xml:id="RAM609">  <note place="margin">The    curse is finally expiated</note>  <l>And now this spell was snapt: once more</l>  <l>I viewed    the ocean green,</l>  <l>And looked far forth, yet little saw</l>  <l>Of what had else been seen    —</l> </lg>

8. Cross References and Links

Explicit cross references or links from one point in a text to another in the same or another document may be encoded using the elements described in this section. Implicit links (such as the association between two parallel texts, or that between a text and its interpretation) may be encoded using the linking attributes discussed in section 8.3. Special kinds of Linking.

8.1. Simple Cross References

A cross reference from one point within a single document to another can be encoded using either of the following elements:

The difference between these two elements is that <ptr> is an empty element, simply marking a point from which a link is to be made, whereas <ref> may contain some text as well, typically identifying the target of the cross reference. The <ptr> element would be used for a cross reference which is to be indicated by some non-verbal means such as a symbol or icon, or in an electronic text by a button. It is also useful in document production systems, where the formatter can generate the correct verbal form of the cross reference.

The following two forms, for example, are logically equivalent :
See especially <ref target="#SEC12">section 12 on page 34</ref>.
See especially <ptr target="#SEC12"/>.
The value of the target attribute on either element may be the identifier of some other element within the current document. The passage or phrase being pointed at must bear an identifier, and must therefore be tagged as an element of some kind. In the following example, the cross reference is to a <div> element:
... see especially <ptr target="#SEC12"/>. ... <div xml:id="SEC12">  <head>Concerning Identifiers</head> <!-- ... --> </div>
Because the xml:id attribute is global, any element in a TEI document may be pointed to in this way. In the following example, a paragraph has been given an identifier so that it may be pointed at:
... this is discussed in <ref target="#pspec">the paragraph on links</ref> ... <p xml:id="pspec">Links may be made to any kind of element ...</p>

Sometimes the target of a cross reference does not correspond with any particular feature of a text, and so may not be tagged as an element of some kind. If the desired target is simply a point in the current document, the easiest way to mark it is by introducing an <anchor> element at the appropriate spot. If the target is some sequence of words not otherwise tagged, the <seg> element may be introduced to mark them. These two elements are described as follows:

In the following (imaginary) example, <ref> elements have been used to represent points in this text which are to be linked in some way to other parts of it; in the first case to a point, and in the second, to a sequence of words:
Returning to <ref target="#ABCD">the point where I dozed off</ref>, I noticed that <ref target="#EFGH">three words</ref> had been circled in red by a previous reader
This encoding requires that elements with the specified identifiers (ABCD and EFGH in this example) are to be found somewhere else in the current document. Assuming that no element already exists to carry these identifiers, the <anchor> and <seg> elements may be used:
.... <anchor type="bookmarkxml:id="ABCD"/> .... ....<seg type="targetxml:id="EFGH"> ... </seg> ...

The type attribute should be used (as above) to distinguish amongst different purposes for which these general purpose elements might be used in a text. Some other uses are discussed in section 8.3. Special kinds of Linking below.

8.2. Pointing to other documents

So far, we have shown how the elements <ptr> and <ref> may be used for cross-references or links whose targets occur within the same document as their source. However, the same elements may also be used to refer to elements in any other XML document or resource, such as a document on the web, or a database component. This is possible because the value of the target attribute may be any valid universal resource indicator (URI)Note: A full definition of this term, defined by the W3C (the consortium which manages the development and maintenance of the World Wide Web), is beyond the scope of this tutorial: however, the most frequently encountered version of a URI is the familiar ‘URL’ used to indicate a web page, such as http://www.tei-c.org/index.xml.

A URI may reference a web page or just a part of one, for example http://www.tei-c.org/index.xml#SEC2. The sharp sign indicates that what follows it is the identifier of an element to be located within the XML document identified by what precedes it: this example will therefore locate an element which has an xml:id attribute value of SEC2 within the document retrieved from http://www.tei-c.org/index.xml. In the examples we have discussed so far, the part to the left of the sharp sign has been omitted: this is understood to mean that the referenced element is to be located within the current document.

Parts of an XML document can be specified by means of other more sophisticated mechanisms using a special language called Xpath, also defined by the W3C. This is particularly useful where the elements to be linked to do not bear identifiers and must therefore be located by some other means.

8.3. Special kinds of Linking

The following special purpose linking attributes are defined for every element in the TEI Lite scheme:

ana
links an element with its interpretation.
corresp
links an element with one or more other corresponding elements.
next
links an element to the next element in an aggregate.
prev
links an element to the previous element in an aggregate.
The ana (analysis) attribute is intended for use where a set of abstract analyses or interpretations have been defined somewhere within a document, as further discussed in section 15. Interpretation and Analysis. For example, a linguistic analysis of the sentence ‘John loves Nancy’ might be encoded as follows:
<seg ana="SVOtype="sentence">  <seg ana="#NP1type="lex">John</seg>  <seg ana="#VVItype="lex">loves</seg>  <seg ana="#NP1type="lex">Nancy</seg> </seg>
This encoding implies the existence elsewhere in the document of elements with identifiers SVO, NP1, and VV1 where the significance of these particular codes is explained. Note the use of the <seg> element to mark particular components of the analysis, distinguished by the type attribute.
The corresp (corresponding) attribute provides a simple way of representing some form of correspondence between two elements in a text. For example, in a multilingual text, it may be used to link translation equivalents, as in the following example
<seg corresp="#EN1xml:id="FR1"  xml:lang="fr">Jean aime Nancy</seg> <seg corresp="#FR1xml:id="EN1"  xml:lang="en">John loves Nancy</seg>
The same mechanism may be used for a variety of purposes. In the following example, it has been used to represent the correspondences between ‘the show’ and ‘Shirley’, and between ‘NBC’ and ‘the network’:
<p>  <title xml:id="shirley">Shirley</title>, which made its Friday night debut only a month ago, was not listed on <name xml:id="nbc">NBC</name>'s new schedule, although <seg corresp="#nbcxml:id="network">the network</seg> says <seg corresp="#shirleyxml:id="show">the show</seg> still is being considered. </p>
The next and prev attributes provide a simple way of linking together the components of a discontinuous element, as in the following example:
<q next="#Q1bxml:id="Q1a">Who-e debel you?</q> — he at last said — <q prev="#Q1axml:id="Q1b">you no speak-e, damme, I kill-e.</q> And so saying, the lighted tomahawk began flourishing about me in the dark.

9. Editorial Interventions

The process of encoding an electronic text has much in common with the process of editing a manuscript or other text for printed publication. In either case a conscientious editor may wish to record both the original state of the source and any editorial correction or other change made in it. The elements discussed in this and the next section provide some facilities for meeting these needs.

9.1. Correction and Normalization

The following elements may be used to mark correction, that is editorial changes introduced where the editor believes the original to be erroneous:

The following elements may be used to mark normalization, that is editorial changes introduced for the sake of consistency or modernization of a text:

As an example, consider this extract from the quarto printing of Shakespeare's Henry V.

... for his nose was as sharp as a pen and a table of green feelds
A modern editor might wish to make a number of interventions here, specifically to modernize (or normalise) the Elizabethan spellings of a' and feelds for he and fields respectively. He or she might also want to emend table to babbl'd, following an editorial tradition that goes back to the 18th century Shakespearian scholar Lewis Theobald. The following encoding would then be appropriate:
... for his nose was as sharp as a pen and <reg>he</reg> <corr resp="#Theobald">babbl'd</corr> of green <reg>fields</reg>
A more conservative or source-oriented editor, however, might want to retain the original, but at the same time signal that some of the readings it contains are in some sense anomalous:
... for his nose was as sharp as a pen and <orig>a</orig> <sic>table</sic> of green <orig>feelds</orig>
Finally, a modern digital editor may decide to combine both possibilities in a single composite text, using the <choice> element.
  • choice groups a number of alternative encodings for the same point in a text.
This allows an editor to mark where alternative readings are possible:
... for his nose was as sharp as a pen and <choice>  <orig>a</orig>  <reg>he</reg> </choice> <choice>  <corr resp="#Theobald">babbl'd</corr>  <sic>table</sic> </choice> of green <choice>  <orig>feelds</orig>  <reg>fields</reg> </choice>

9.2. Omissions, Deletions, and Additions

In addition to correcting or normalizing words and phrases, editors and transcribers may also supply missing material, omit material, or transcribe material deleted or crossed out in the source. In addition, some material may be particularly hard to transcribe because it is hard to make out on the page. The following elements may be used to record such phenomena:

These elements may be used to record changes made by an editor, by the transcriber, or (in manuscript material) by the author or scribe. For example, if the source for an electronic text read ‘The following elements are provided for for simple editorial interventions.’ then it might be felt desirable to correct the obvious error, but at the same time to record the deletion of the superfluous second for, thus:
The following elements are provided for <del resp="#LB">for</del> simple editorial interventions.
The attribute value #LB on the resp attribute is used to point to a fuller definition (typically in a <respStmt> element) for the agency responsible for correcting the duplication of for.
If the source read ‘The following elements provided for simple editorial interventions.’ (i.e. if the verb had been inadvertently dropped) then the corrected text might read:
The following elements <add resp="#LB">are</add> provided for simple editorial interventions.
These elements are also used to record authorial changes in manuscripts. A manuscript in which the author has first written ‘How it galls me, what a galling shadow’, then crossed out the word galls and inserted dogs might be encoded thus:
How it <del hand="#DHLtype="overstrike">galls</del> <add hand="#DHLplace="supralinear">dogs</add> me, what a galling shadow
Again, the code #DHL points to another location where more information about the hand concerned is to be found3.
Similarly, the <unclear> and <gap> elements may be used together to indicate the omission of illegible material; the following example also shows the use of <add> for a conjectural emendation:
One hundred &amp; twenty good regulars joined to me <unclear>  <gap reason="indecipherable"/> </unclear> &amp; instantly, would aid me signally <add hand="#ed">in?</add> an enterprise against Wilmington.
The <del> element marks material which has been transcribed as part of the electronic text despite being marked as deleted, while <gap> marks the location of material which is omitted from the electronic text, whether it is legible or not. A language corpus, for example, might omit long quotations in foreign languages:
<p> ... An example of a list appearing in a fief ledger of <name type="place">Koldinghus</name>  <date>1611/12</date> is given below. It shows cash income from a sale of honey.</p> <gap>  <desc>quotation from ledger (in Danish)</desc> </gap> <p>A description of the overall structure of the account is once again ... </p>
Other corpora (particular those constructed before the widespread use of scanners) systematically omit figures and mathematics:
<p>At the bottom of your screen below the mode line is the <term>minibuffer</term>. This is the area where Emacs echoes the commands you enter and where you specify filenames for Emacs to find, values for search and replace, and so on. <gap reason="graphic">   <desc>diagram of      Emacs screen</desc>  </gap> </p>

The full TEI scheme provides more precise ways of capturing different aspects of a transcription, distinguishing for example between text added or supplied by the encoder and text indicated as supplied or deleted in the source. TEI Lite does not provide different tags for these purposes.

9.3. Abbreviations and their Expansion

Like names, dates, and numbers, abbreviations may be transcribed as they stand or expanded; they may be left unmarked, or encoded using the following elements:

The <abbr> element is useful as a means of distinguishing semi-lexical items such as acronyms or jargon:
We can sum up the above discussion as follows: the identity of a <abbr>CC</abbr> is defined by that calibration of values which motivates the elements of its <abbr>GSP</abbr>;
Every manufacturer of <abbr>3GL</abbr> or <abbr>4GL</abbr> languages is currently nailing on <abbr>OOP</abbr> extensions

The type attribute may be used to distinguish types of abbreviation by their function.

The <expan> element is used to mark an expansion supplied by an encoder. This element is particularly useful in the transcription of manuscript materials. For example, the character p with a bar through its descender as a conventional representation for the word per is commonly encountered in Medieval European manuscripts. An encoder may choose to expand this as follows:
<expan>per</expan>
The expansion corresponding with an abbreviated form may not always contain the same letters as the abbreviation. Where it does, however, common editorial practice is to italicize or otherwise signal which letters have been supplied. The <expan> element should not be used for this purpose since its function is to indicate an expanded form, not a part of one. For example, consider the common abbreviation wt (for with) found in medieval texts. In a modern edition, an editor might wish to represent this as ‘with’, italicising the letters not found in the source. One simple means of achieving that would be an encoding such as the follow
<expan>w<hi rend="it">i</hi>t<hi rend="it">h</hi> </expan>
The full TEI also provides elements <ex> and <am> for use in this situation, but these are not included in the TEI Lite schema.
To record both an abbreviation and its expansion, the <choice> element mentioned above may be used to group the abbreviated form with its proposed expansion:
<choice>  <abbr>wt</abbr>  <expan>with</expan> </choice>

10. Names, Dates, and Numbers

The TEI scheme defines elements for a large number of ‘data-like’ features which may appear almost anywhere within almost any kind of text. These features may be of particular interest in a range of disciplines; they all relate to objects external to the text itself, such as the names of persons and places, numbers and dates. They also pose particular problems for many natural language processing (NLP) applications because of the variety of ways in which they may be presented within a text. The elements described here, by making such features explicit, reduce the complexity of processing texts containing them.

10.1. Names and Referring Strings

A referring string is a phrase which refers to some person, place, object, etc. Two elements are provided to mark such strings:

The type attribute is used to distinguish amongst (for example) names of persons, places and organizations, where this is possible:
<q>My dear <rs type="person">Mr. Bennet</rs>, </q> said his lady to him one day, <q>have you heard that <rs type="place">Netherfield Park</rs> is let at last?</q>
It being one of the principles of the <rs type="organization">Circumlocution Office</rs> never, on any account whatsoever, to give a straightforward answer, <rs type="person">Mr Barnacle</rs> said, <q>Possibly.</q>
As the following example shows, the <rs> element may be used for any reference to a person, place, etc, not necessarily one in the form of a proper noun or noun phrase.
<q>My dear <rs type="person">Mr. Bennet</rs>,</q> said <rs type="person">his lady</rs> to him one day...

The <name> element by contrast is provided for the special case of referencing strings which consist only of proper nouns; it may be used synonymously with the <rs> element, or nested within it if a referring string contains a mixture of common and proper nouns.

Simply tagging something as a name is rarely enough to enable automatic processing of personal names into the canonical forms usually required for reference purposes. The name as it appears in the text may be inconsistently spelled, partial, or vague. Moreover, name prefixes such as van or de la, may or may not be included as part of the reference form of a name, depending on the language and country of origin of the bearer.

The key attribute provides an alternative normalized identifier for the object being named, like a database record key. It may thus be useful as a means of gathering together all references to the same individual or location scattered throughout a document:
<q>My dear <rs key="BENM1type="person">Mr.    Bennet</rs>, </q> said <rs key="BENM2type="person">his lady</rs> to him one day, <q>have you heard that <rs key="NETP1type="place">Netherfield Park</rs> is let at last?</q>
This use should be distinguished from the case of the <reg> (regularization) element, which provides a means of marking the standard form of a referencing string as demonstrated below:
<name key="WADLM1type="person">  <choice>   <sic>Walter de la Mare</sic>   <reg>de la Mare, Walter</reg>  </choice> </name> was born at <name key="Ch1type="place">Charlton</name>, in <name key="KT1type="county">Kent</name>, in 1873.
The <index> element discussed in indexing may be more appropriate if the function of the regularization is to provide a consistent index:
<p>  <name type="place">Montaillou</name> is not a large parish. At the time of the events which led to <name type="person">Fournier</name>'s <index>   <term>Benedict XII, Pope of Avignon (Jacques Fournier)</term>  </index> investigations, the local population consisted of between 200 and 250 inhabitants. </p>
Although adequate for many simple applications, these methods have two inconveniences: if the name occurs many times, then its regularised form must be repeated many times; and the burden of additional XML markup in the body of the text may be inconvenient to maintain and complex to process. For applications such as onomastics, relating to persons or places named rather than the name itself, or wherever a detailed analysis of the component parts of a name is needed, the full TEI Guidelines provide a range of other solutions.

10.2. Dates and Times

Tags for the more detailed encoding of times and dates include the following:

These elements have a number of attributes which can be used to provide normalised versions of their values.
  • att.datable provides attributes for normalization of elements that contain dates, times, or datable events.
    periodsupplies a pointer to some location defining a named period of time within which the datable item is understood to have occurred.
    when [att.datable.w3c]supplies the value of the date or time in a standard form, e.g. yyyy-mm-dd.
The when attribute specifies a normalized form for the date or time, using one of the standard formats defined by ISO 8601. Partial dates or times (e.g. ‘1990’, ‘September 1990’, ‘twelvish’) can be expressed by omitting a part of the value supplied, as in the following examples:
<date when="1980-02-21">21 Feb 1980</date> <date when="1990">1990</date> <date when="1990-09">September 1990</date> <date when="--09">September</date> <date when="2001-09-11T12:48:00">Sept 11th, 12 minutes before 9 am</date>
Note in the last example the use of a normalized representation for the date string which includes a time: this example could thus equally well be tagged using the <time> element.
Given on the <date when="1977-06-12">Twelfth Day of June in the Year of Our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Seventy-seven of the Republic the Two Hundredth and first and of the University the Eighty-Sixth.</date>
<l>specially when it's nine below zero</l> <l>and <time when="15:00:00">three o'clock in the afternoon</time> </l>

10.3. Numbers

Numbers can be written with either letters or digits (twenty-one, xxi, and 21) and their presentation is language-dependent (e.g. English 5th becomes Greek 5.; English 123,456.78 equals French 123.456,78). In natural-language processing or machine-translation applications, it is often helpful to distinguish them from other, more ‘lexical’ parts of the text. In other applications, the ability to record a number's value in standard notation is important. The <num> element provides this possibility:

For example:
<num value="33">xxxiii</num> <num type="cardinalvalue="21">twenty-one</num> <num type="percentagevalue="10">ten percent</num> <num type="percentagevalue="10">10%</num> <num type="ordinalvalue="5">5th</num>

11. Lists

The element <list> is used to mark any kind of list. A list is a sequence of text items, which may be numbered, bulleted, or arranged as a glossary list. Each item may be preceded by an item label (in a glossary list, this label is the term being defined):

Individual list items are tagged with <item>. The first <item> may optionally be preceded by a <head>, which gives a heading for the list. The numbering of a list may be omitted, indicated using the n attribute on each item, or (rarely) tagged as content using the <label> element. The following are all thus equivalent:
<list>  <head>A short list</head>  <item>First item in list.</item>  <item>Second item in list.</item>  <item>Third item in list.</item> </list> <list>  <head>A short list</head>  <item n="1">First item in list.</item>  <item n="2">Second item in list.</item>  <item n="3">Third item in list.</item> </list> <list>  <head>A short list</head>  <label>1</label>  <item>First item in list.</item>  <label>2</label>  <item>Second item in list.</item>  <label>3</label>  <item>Third item in list.</item> </list>
The styles should not be mixed in the same list.
A simple two-column table may be treated as a glossary list, tagged <list type="gloss">. Here, each item comprises a term and a gloss, marked with <label> and <item> respectively. These correspond to the elements <term> and <gloss>, which can occur anywhere in prose text.
<list type="gloss">  <head>Vocabulary</head>  <label xml:lang="enm">nu</label>  <item>now</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">lhude</label>  <item>loudly</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">bloweth</label>  <item>blooms</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">med</label>  <item>meadow</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">wude</label>  <item>wood</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">awe</label>  <item>ewe</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">lhouth</label>  <item>lows</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">sterteth</label>  <item>bounds, frisks</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">verteth</label>  <item xml:lang="la">pedit</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">murie</label>  <item>merrily</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">swik</label>  <item>cease</item>  <label xml:lang="enm">naver</label>  <item>never</item> </list>

Where the internal structure of a list item is more complex, it may be preferable to regard the list as a table, for which special-purpose tagging is defined below (13. Tables).

Lists of whatever kind can, of course, nest within list items to any depth required. Here, for example, a glossary list contains two items, each of which is itself a simple list:
<list type="gloss">  <label>EVIL</label>  <item>   <list type="simple">    <item>I am cast upon a horrible desolate island, void of all hope of recovery.</item>    <item>I am singled out and separated as it were from all the world to be miserable.</item>    <item>I am divided from mankind — a solitaire; one banished from human society.</item>   </list>  </item>  <label>GOOD</label>  <item>   <list type="simple">    <item>But I am alive; and not drowned, as all my ship's company were.</item>    <item>But I am singled out, too, from all the ship's crew, to be spared from        death...</item>    <item>But I am not starved, and perishing on a barren place, affording no        sustenances....</item>   </list>  </item> </list>
A list need not necessarily be displayed in list format. For example,
<p>On those remote pages it is written that animals are divided into <list rend="run-on">   <item n="a">those that belong to the Emperor,</item>   <item n="b"> embalmed ones, </item>   <item n="c"> those that are trained, </item>   <item n="d"> suckling pigs, </item>   <item n="e"> mermaids, </item>   <item n="f"> fabulous ones, </item>   <item n="g"> stray dogs, </item>   <item n="h"> those that are included in this classification, </item>   <item n="i"> those that tremble as if they were mad, </item>   <item n="j"> innumerable ones, </item>   <item n="k"> those drawn with a very fine camel's-hair brush, </item>   <item n="l"> others, </item>   <item n="m"> those that have just broken a flower vase, </item>   <item n="n"> those that resemble flies from a distance.</item>  </list> </p>

Lists of bibliographic items should be tagged using the <listBibl> element, described in the next section.

12. Bibliographic Citations

It is often useful to distinguish bibliographic citations where they occur within texts being transcribed for research, if only so that they will be properly formatted when the text is printed out. The element <bibl> is provided for this purpose. Where the components of a bibliographic reference are to be distinguished, the following elements may be used as appropriate. It is generally useful to mark at least those parts (such as the titles of articles, books, and journals) which will need special formatting. The other elements are provided for cases where particular interest attaches to such details.

For example, the following editorial note might be transcribed as shown:
He was a member of Parliament for Warwickshire in 1445, and died March 14, 1470 (according to Kittredge, Harvard Studies 5. 88ff).
He was a member of Parliament for Warwickshire in 1445, and died March 14, 1470 (according to <bibl>  <author>Kittredge</author>, <title>Harvard Studies</title>  <biblScope>5. 88ff</biblScope> </bibl>).

For lists of bibliographic citations, the <listBibl> element should be used; it may contain a series of <bibl> elements.

13. Tables

Tables represent a challenge for any text processing system, but simple tables, at least, appear in so many texts that even in the simplified TEI tag set presented here, markup for tables is necessary. The following elements are provided for this purpose:

For example, Defoe uses mortality tables like the following in the Journal of the Plague Year to show the rise and ebb of the epidemic:
<p>It was indeed coming on amain, for the burials that same week were in the next adjoining parishes thus:— <table cols="4rows="5">   <row role="data">    <cell role="label">St. Leonard's, Shoreditch</cell>    <cell>64</cell>    <cell>84</cell>    <cell>119</cell>   </row>   <row role="data">    <cell role="label">St. Botolph's, Bishopsgate</cell>    <cell>65</cell>    <cell>105</cell>    <cell>116</cell>   </row>   <row role="data">    <cell role="label">St. Giles's, Cripplegate</cell>    <cell>213</cell>    <cell>421</cell>    <cell>554</cell>   </row>  </table> </p> <p>This shutting up of houses was at first counted a very cruel and unchristian method, and the poor people so confined made bitter lamentations. ... </p>

14. Figures and Graphics

Not all the components of a document are necessarily textual. The most straightforward text will often contain diagrams or illustrations, to say nothing of documents in which image and text are inextricably intertwined, or electronic resources in which the two are complementary.

The encoder may simply record the presence of a graphic within the text, possibly with a brief description of its content, and may also provide a link to a digitized version of the graphic, using the following elements:

Any textual information accompanying the graphic, such as a heading and/or caption, may be included within the <figure> element itself, in a <head> and one or more <p> elements, as also may any text appearing within the graphic itself. It is strongly recommended that a prose description of the image be supplied, as the content of a <figDesc> element, for the use of applications which are not able to render the graphic, and to render the document accessible to vision-impaired readers. (Such text is not normally considered part of the document proper.)

The simplest use for these elements is to mark the position of a graphic and provide a link to it, as in this example;
<pb n="412"/> <figure>  <graphic url="p412fig.png"/> </figure> <pb n="413"/>
This indicates that the graphic contained by the file p412fig.png appears between pages 412 and 413.
The <graphic> element can appear anywhere that textual content is permitted, within but not between paragraphs or headings. In the following example, the encoder has decided to treat a specific printer's ornament as a heading:
<head>  <graphic url="http://www.iath.virginia.edu/gants/Ornaments/Heads/hp-ral02.gif"/> </head>
More usually, a graphic will have at the least an identifying title, which may be encoded using the <head> element, or a number of figures may be grouped together in a particular structure. It is also often convenient to include a brief description of the image. The <figure> element provides a means of wrapping one or more such elements together as a kind of graphic ‘block’:
<figure>  <graphic url="fessipic.png"/>  <head>Mr Fezziwig's Ball</head>  <figDesc>A Cruikshank    engraving showing Mr Fezziwig leading a group of revellers.</figDesc> </figure>
These cases should be carefully distinguished from the case where an encoded text is complemented by a collection of digital images, maintained as a distinct resource. The facs attribute may be used to associate any element in an encoded text with a digital facsimile of it. In the simple case where only page images are available, the facs attribute on the <pb> element may be used to associate each image with an appropriate point in the text:
<text>  <pb facs="page1.pngn="1"/> <!-- text contained on page 1 is encoded here -->  <pb facs="page2.pngn="2"/> <!-- text contained on page 2 is encoded here --> </text>
This method is only appropriate in the simple case where each digital image file page1.png etc. corresponds with a single transcribed and encoded page. If more detailed alignment of image and transcription is required, for example because the image files actually represent double page spreads, more sophisticated mechanisms are provided in the full TEI Guidelines.

15. Interpretation and Analysis

It is often said that all markup is a form of interpretation or analysis. While it is certainly difficult, and may be impossible, to distinguish firmly between ‘objective’ and ‘subjective’ information in any universal way, it remains true that judgments concerning the latter are typically regarded as more likely to provide controversy than those concerning the former. Many scholars therefore prefer to record such interpretations only if it is possible to alert the reader that they are considered more open to dispute, than the rest of the markup. This section describes some of the elements provided by the TEI scheme to meet this need.

15.1. Orthographic Sentences

Interpretation typically ranges across the whole of a text, with no particular respect to other structural units. A useful preliminary to intensive interpretation is therefore to segment the text into discrete and identifiable units, each of which can then bear a label for use as a sort of ‘canonical reference’. To facilitate such uses, these units may not cross each other, nor nest within each other. They may conveniently be represented using the following element:

As the name suggests, the <s> element is most commonly used (in linguistic applications at least) for marking orthographic sentences, that is, units defined by orthographic features such as punctuation. For example, the passage from Jane Eyre discussed earlier might be divided into s-units as follows:
<pb n="474"/> <div n="38type="chapter">  <p>   <s n="001">Reader, I married him.</s>   <s n="002">A quiet wedding we had:</s>   <s n="003">he      and I, the parson and clerk, were alone present.</s>   <s n="004">When we got back from      church, I went into the kitchen of the manor-house, where Mary was cooking the dinner, and      John cleaning the knives, and I said —</s>  </p>  <p>   <q>    <s n="005">Mary, I have been married to Mr Rochester this morning.</s>   </q> ... </p> </div>
Note that <s> elements cannot nest: the beginning of one <s> element implies that the previous one has finished. When s-units are tagged as shown above, it is advisable to tag the entire text end-to-end, so that every word in the text being analysed will be contained by exactly one <s> element, whose identifier can then be used to specify a unique reference for it. If the identifiers used are unique within the document, then the xml:id attribute might be used in preference to the n used in the above example.

15.2. Words and punctuation

Tokenization, that is, the identification of lexical or non-lexical tokens within a text, is a very common requirement for all kinds of textual analysis, and not an entirely trivial one. The decision as to whether, for example, ‘can't’ in English or ‘du’ in French should be treated as one word or two is not simple. Consequently it is often useful to make explicit the preferred tokenization in a marked up text. The following elements are available for this purpose:

For example, the output from a part of speech tagger might be recorded in TEI Lite as follows:
<s n="1">  <w ana="#NP0">Marley</w>  <w ana="#VBD">was</w>  <w ana="#AJ0">dead</w>  <pc>:</pc>  <w ana="#TO0">to</w>  <w ana="#VBB">begin</w>  <w ana="#PRP">with</w>  <pc>. </pc> </s>
In this example, each word has been decorated with an automatically generated part of speech code, using the ana attribute discussed in section 8.3. Special kinds of Linking above. The <w> also provides for each word to be associated with a root form or lemma, either explicitly using the lemma attribute, or by reference, using the lemmaRef attribute, as in this example:
...<w ana="#VBDlemma="be"  lemmaRef="http://www.myLexicon.com/be">was</w> ...

15.3. General-Purpose Interpretation Elements

The <w> element is a specialisation of the <seg> element which has already been introduced for use in identifying otherwise unmarked targets of cross references and hypertext links (see section 8. Cross References and Links); it identifies some phrase-level portion of text to which the encoder may assign a user-specified type, as well as a unique identifier; it may thus be used to tag textual features for which there is no other provision in the published TEI Guidelines.

For example, the Guidelines provide no ‘apostrophe’ element to mark parts of a literary text in which the narrator addresses the reader (or hearer) directly. One approach might be to regard these as instances of the <q> element, distinguished from others by an appropriate value for the who attribute. A possibly simpler, and certainly more general, solution would however be to use the <seg> element as follows:
<div n="38type="chapter">  <p>   <seg type="apostrophe">Reader, I married him.</seg> A quiet wedding we had: ...</p> </div>
The type attribute on the <seg> element can take any value, and so can be used to record phrase-level phenomena of any kind; it is good practice to record the values used and their significance in the header.

A <seg> element of one type (unlike the <s> element which it superficially resembles) can be nested within a <seg> element of the same or another type. This enables quite complex structures to be represented; some examples were given in section 8.3. Special kinds of Linking above. However, because it must respect the requirement that elements be properly nested and may not cut across each other, it cannot cope with the common requirement to associate an interpretation with arbitrary segments of a text which may completely ignore the document hierarchy. It also requires that the interpretation itself be represented by a single coded value in the type attribute.

Neither restriction applies to the <interp> element, which provides powerful features for the encoding of quite complex interpretive information in a relatively straightforward manner.

These elements allow the encoder to specify both the class of an interpretation, and the particular instance of that class which the interpretation involves. Thus, whereas with <seg> one can say simply that something is an apostrophe, with <interp> one can say that it is an instance (apostrophe) of a larger class (rhetorical figures).

Moreover, <interp> is a ‘stand off’ element: it does not surround the segments of text which it describes, but instead is linked to the passage in question either by means of the ana attribute discussed in section 8.3. Special kinds of Linking above, or by means of its own inst attribute. This means that any kind of analysis can be represented, independently of the document hierarchy, as well as facilitating the grouping of analyses of a particular type together. A special purpose <interpGrp> element is provided for the latter purpose.

For example, suppose that you wish to mark such diverse aspects of a text as themes or subject matter, rhetorical figures, and the locations of individual scenes of the narrative. Different portions of our sample passage from Jane Eyre for example, might be associated with the rhetorical figures of apostrophe, hyperbole, and metaphor; with subject-matter references to churches, servants, cooking, postal service, and honeymoons; and with scenes located in the church, in the kitchen, and in an unspecified location (drawing room?).

These interpretations could be placed anywhere within the <text> element; it is however good practice to put them all in the same place (e.g. a separate section of the front or back matter), as in the following example:
<back>  <div type="Interpretations">   <p>    <interp resp="#LB-MSM"     type="figureOfSpeechxml:id="fig-apos-1">apostrophe</interp>    <interp resp="#LB-MSM"     type="figureOfSpeechxml:id="fig-hyp-1">hyperbole</interp>    <interp resp="#LB-MSMtype="setting"     xml:id="set-church-1">church</interp>    <interp resp="#LB-MSMtype="reference"     xml:id="ref-church-1">church</interp>    <interp resp="#LB-MSMtype="reference"     xml:id="ref-serv-1">servants</interp>   </p>  </div> </back>
The evident redundancy of this encoding can be considerably reduced by using the <interpGrp> element to group together all those <interp> elements which share common attribute values, as follows:
<back>  <div type="Interpretations">   <p>    <interpGrp resp="#LB-MSM"     type="figureOfSpeech">     <interp xml:id="fig-apos">apostrophe</interp>     <interp xml:id="fig-hyp">hyperbole</interp>     <interp xml:id="fig-meta">metaphor</interp>    </interpGrp>    <interpGrp resp="#LB-MSM"     type="scene-setting">     <interp xml:id="set-church">church</interp>     <interp xml:id="set-kitch">kitchen</interp>     <interp xml:id="set-unspec">unspecified</interp>    </interpGrp>    <interpGrp resp="#LB-MSM"     type="reference">     <interp xml:id="ref-church">church</interp>     <interp xml:id="ref-serv">servants</interp>     <interp xml:id="ref-cook">cooking</interp>    </interpGrp>   </p>  </div> </back>
Once these interpretation elements have been defined, they can be linked with the parts of the text to which they apply in either or both of two ways. The ana attribute can be used on whichever element is appropriate:
<div n="38type="chapter">  <p ana="#set-church #set-kitch"   xml:id="P38.1">   <s ana="#fig-aposxml:id="P38.1.1">Reader, I      married him.</s>  </p> </div>
Note in this example that since the paragraph has two settings (in the church and in the kitchen), the identifiers of both have been supplied.
Alternatively, the <interp> elements can point to all the parts of the text to which they apply, using their inst attribute:
<interp inst="#P38.1.1resp="#LB-MSM"  type="figureOfSpeechxml:id="fig-apos-2">apostrophe</interp> <interp inst="#P38.1resp="#LB-MSM"  type="scene-settingxml:id="set-church-2">church</interp> <interp inst="#P38.1resp="#LB-MSM"  type="scene-settingxml:id="set-kitchen-2">kitchen</interp>
The <interp> element is not limited to any particular type of analysis. The literary analysis shown above is but one possibility; one could equally well use <interp> to capture a linguistic part-of-speech analysis. For example, the example sentence given in section 8.3. Special kinds of Linking assumes a linguistic analysis which might be represented as follows:
<interp type="posxml:id="NP1">noun phrase, singular</interp> <interp type="posxml:id="VV1">inflected verb, present-tense singular</interp> ...

16. Technical Documentation

Although the focus of this document is on the use of the TEI scheme for the encoding of existing ‘pre-electronic’ documents, the same scheme may also be used for the encoding of new documents. In the preparation of new documents (such as this one), XML has much to recommend it: the document's structure can be clearly represented, and the same electronic text can be re-used for many purposes — to provide both online hypertext or browsable versions and well-formatted typeset versions from a common source for example.

To facilitate this, the TEI Lite schema includes some elements for marking features of technical documents in general, and of XML-related documents in particular.

16.1. Additional Elements for Technical Documents

The following elements may be used to mark particular features of technical documents:

The following example shows how these elements might be used to encode a passage from a tutorial introducing the Fortran programming language:
<p>It is traditional to introduce a language with a program like the following: <eg xml:space="preserve"> CHAR*12 GRTG GRTG = 'HELLO WORLD'  PRINT *, GRTG  END         </eg> </p> <p>This simple example first declares a variable <ident>GRTG</ident>, in the line <code>CHAR*12 GRTG</code>, which identifies <ident>GRTG</ident> as consisting of 12 bytes of type <ident>CHAR</ident>. To this variable, the value <val>HELLO WORLD</val> is then assigned.</p>

A formatting application, given a text like that above, can be instructed to format examples appropriately (e.g. to preserve line breaks, or to use a distinctive font). Similarly, the use of tags such as <ident> greatly facilitates the construction of a useful index.

The <formula> element should be used to enclose a mathematical or chemical formula presented within the text as a distinct item. Since formulae generally include a large variety of special typographic features not otherwise present in ordinary text, it will usually be necessary to present the body of the formula in a specialized notation. The notation used should be specified by the notation attribute, as in the following example:
<formula notation="tex"> \begin{math}E = mc^{2}\end{math} </formula>

A particular problem arises when XML encoding is the subject of discussion within a technical document, itself encoded in XML. In such a document, it is clearly essential to distinguish clearly the markup occurring within examples from that marking up the document itself, and end-tags are highly likely to occur. One simple solution is to use the predefined entity reference &lt; to represent each < character which marks the start of an XML tag within the examples. A more general solution is to mark off the whole body of each example as containing data which is not to be scanned for XML mark-up by the parser. This is achieved by enclosing it within a special XML construct called a CDATA marked section, as in the following example:

<p>A list should be encoded as
       follows: <eg><![ CDATA [ <list> <item>First item in the
       list</item> <item>Second item</item> </list> ]]> </eg> The
       <gi>list</gi> element consists of a series of <gi>item</gi>
       elements.

The <list> element used within the example above will not be regarded as forming part of the document proper, because it is embedded within a marked section (beginning with the special markup declaration <![CDATA[ , and ending with ]]>).

Note also the use of the <gi> element to tag references to element names (or generic identifiers) within the body of the text.

16.2. Generated Divisions

Most modern document production systems have the ability to generate automatically whole sections such as a table of contents or an index. The TEI Lite scheme provides an element to mark the location at which such a generated section should be placed.

The <divGen> element can be placed anywhere that a division element would be legal, as in the following example:
<front>  <titlePage> <!-- ... -->  </titlePage>  <divGen type="toc"/>  <div>   <head>Preface</head> <!-- ... -->  </div> </front> <body> <!-- ... --> </body> <back>  <div>   <head>Appendix</head> <!-- ... -->  </div>  <divGen n="Indextype="index"/> </back>

This example also demonstrates the use of the type attribute to distinguish the different kinds of division to be generated: in the first case a table of contents (a toc) and in the second an index.

When an existing index or table of contents is to be encoded (rather than one being generated) for some reason, the <list> element discussed in section 11. Lists should be used.

16.3. Index Generation

While production of a table of contents from a properly tagged document is generally unproblematic for an automatic processor, the production of a good quality index will often require more careful tagging. It may not be enough simply to produce a list of all parts tagged in some particular way, although extracting (for example) all occurrences of elements such as <term> or <name> will often be a good departure point for an index.

The TEI schema provides a special purpose <index> tag which may be used to mark both the parts of the document which should be indexed, and how the indexing should be done.

For example, the second paragraph of this section might include the following:
... TEI lite also provides a special purpose <gi>index</gi> tag <index>  <term>indexing</term> </index> <index>  <term>index (tag)</term>  <index>   <term>use in index generation</term>  </index> </index> which may be used ...
The <index> element can also be used to provide a form of interpretive or analytic information. For example, in a study of Ovid, it might be desired to record all the poet's references to different figures, for comparative stylistic study. In the following lines of the Metamorphoses, such a study would record the poet's references to Jupiter (as deus, se, and as the subject of confiteor [in inflectional form number 227]), to Jupiter-in-the-guise-of-a-bull (as imago tauri fallacis and the subject of teneo), and so on.4
<l n="3.001">iamque deus posita fallacis imagine tauri</l> <l n="3.002">se confessus erat Dictaeaque rura tenebat</l>
This need might be met using the <note> element discussed in section in 7. Notes, or with the <interp> element discussed in section 15. Interpretation and Analysis. Here we demonstrate how it might also be satisfied by using the <index> element.
We assume that the object is to generate more than one index: one for names of deities (called dn), another for onomastic references (called on), a third for pronominal references (called pr) and so forth. One way of achieving this might be as follows:
<l n="3.001">iamque deus posita fallacis imagine tauri <index indexName="dn">   <term>Iuppiter</term>   <index>    <term>deus</term>   </index>  </index>  <index indexName="on">   <term>Iuppiter (taurus)</term>   <index>    <term>imago tauri        fallacis</term>   </index>  </index> </l> <l n="3.002">se confessus erat Dictaeaque rura tenebat <index indexName="pr">   <term>Iuppiter</term>   <index>    <term>se</term>   </index>  </index>  <index indexName="v">   <term>Iuppiter</term>   <index>    <term>confiteor        (v227)</term>   </index>  </index> </l>
For each <index> element above, an entry will be generated in the appropriate index, using as headword the content of the <term> element it contains; the <term> elements nested within the secondary <index> element in each case provide a secondary keyword. The actual reference will be taken from the context in which the <index> element appears, i.e. in this case the identifier of the <l> element containing it.

16.4. Addresses

The <address> element is used to mark a postal address of any kind. It contains one or more <addrLine> elements, one for each line of the address.

Here is a simple example:
<address>  <addrLine>Computer Center (M/C 135)</addrLine>  <addrLine>1940 W. Taylor, Room 124</addrLine>  <addrLine>Chicago, IL 60612-7352</addrLine>  <addrLine>U.S.A.</addrLine> </address>
The individual parts of an address may be further distinguished by using the <name> element discussed above (section 10.1. Names and Referring Strings).
<address>  <addrLine>Computer Center (M/C 135)</addrLine>  <addrLine>1940 W. Taylor, Room 124</addrLine>  <addrLine>   <name type="city">Chicago</name>, IL 60612-7352</addrLine>  <addrLine>   <name type="country">USA</name>  </addrLine> </address>

17. Character Sets, Diacritics, etc.

With the advent of XML and its adoption of Unicode as the required character set for all documents, most problems previously associated with the representation of the divers languages and writing systems of the world are greatly reduced. For those working with standard forms of the European languages in particular, almost no special action is needed: any XML editor should enable you to input accented letters or other ‘non-ASCII’ characters directly, and they should be stored in the resulting file in a way which is transferable directly between different systems.

There are two important exceptions: the characters & and < may not be entered directly in an XML document, since they have a special significance as initiating markup. They must always be represented as entity references, like this: &amp; or &lt;. Other characters may also be represented by means of entity reference where necessary, for example to retain compatibility with a pre-Unicode processing system.

18. Front and Back Matter

18.1. Front Matter

For many purposes, particularly in older texts, the preliminary material such as title pages, prefatory epistles, etc., may provide very useful additional linguistic or social information. P5 provides a set of recommendations for distinguishing the textual elements most commonly encountered in front matter, which are summarized here.

18.1.1. Title Page

The start of a title page should be marked with the element <titlePage>. All text contained on the page should be transcribed and tagged with the appropriate element from the following list:

  • titlePage (title page) contains the title page of a text, appearing within the front or back matter.
  • docTitle (document title) contains the title of a document, including all its constituents, as given on a title page.
  • titlePart contains a subsection or division of the title of a work, as indicated on a title page.
  • byline contains the primary statement of responsibility given for a work on its title page or at the head or end of the work.
  • docAuthor (document author) contains the name of the author of the document, as given on the title page (often but not always contained in a byline).
  • docDate (document date) contains the date of a document, as given on a title page or in a dateline.
  • docEdition (document edition) contains an edition statement as presented on a title page of a document.
  • docImprint (document imprint) contains the imprint statement (place and date of publication, publisher name), as given (usually) at the foot of a title page.
  • epigraph contains a quotation, anonymous or attributed, appearing at the start or end of a section or on a title page.

Typeface distinctions should be marked with the rend attribute when necessary, as described above. Very detailed description of the letter spacing and sizing used in ornamental titles is not as yet provided for by the Guidelines. Changes of language should be marked by appropriate use of the xml:lang attribute or the <foreign> element, as necessary. Names of people, places, or organizations, may be tagged using the <name> element wherever they appear if no other more specific element is available.

Two example title pages follow:
<titlePage rend="Roman">  <docTitle>   <titlePart type="main"> PARADISE REGAIN'D. A POEM In IV <hi>BOOKS</hi>. </titlePart>   <titlePart> To which is added <title>SAMSON AGONISTES</title>. </titlePart>  </docTitle>  <byline>The Author <docAuthor>JOHN MILTON</docAuthor>  </byline>  <docImprint>   <name>LONDON</name>, Printed by <name>J.M.</name> for <name>John Starkey</name>    at the <name>Mitre</name> in <name>Fleetstreet</name>, near  <name>Temple-Bar.</name>  </docImprint>  <docDate>MDCLXXI</docDate> </titlePage>
<titlePage>  <docTitle>   <titlePart type="main"> Lives of the Queens of England, from the Norman      Conquest;</titlePart>   <titlePart type="sub">with anecdotes of their courts. </titlePart>  </docTitle>  <titlePart>Now first published from Official Records and other authentic documents private    as well as public.</titlePart>  <docEdition>New edition, with corrections and additions</docEdition>  <byline>By <docAuthor>Agnes Strickland</docAuthor>  </byline>  <epigraph>   <q>The treasures of antiquity laid up in old historic rolls, I opened.</q>   <bibl>BEAUMONT</bibl>  </epigraph>  <docImprint>Philadelphia: Blanchard and Lea</docImprint>  <docDate>1860.</docDate> </titlePage>
As elsewhere, the ref attribute may be used to link a name with a canonical definition of the entity being named. For example:
<byline>By <docAuthor>   <name ref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnes_Strickland">Agnes      Strickland</name>  </docAuthor> </byline>

18.1.2. Prefatory Matter

Major blocks of text within the front matter should be marked using <div> elements; the following suggested values for the type attribute may be used to distinguish various common types of prefatory matter:

preface
A foreword or preface addressed to the reader in which the author or publisher explains the content, purpose, or origin of the text
dedication
A formal offering or dedication of a text to one or more persons or institutions by the author.
abstract
A summary of the content of a text as continuous prose
ack
A formal declaration of acknowledgment by the author in which persons and institutions are thanked for their part in the creation of a text
contents
A table of contents, specifying the structure of a work and listing its constituents. The <list> element should be used to mark its structure.
frontispiece
A pictorial frontispiece, possibly including some text.

Where other kinds of prefatory matter are encountered, the encoder is at liberty to invent other values for the type attribute.

Like any text division, those in front matter may contain low level structural or non-structural elements as described elsewhere. They will generally begin with a heading or title of some kind which should be tagged using the <head> element. Epistles will contain the following additional elements:

  • salute (salutation) contains a salutation or greeting prefixed to a foreword, dedicatory epistle, or other division of a text, or the salutation in the closing of a letter, preface, etc.
  • signed (signature) contains the closing salutation, etc., appended to a foreword, dedicatory epistle, or other division of a text.
  • byline contains the primary statement of responsibility given for a work on its title page or at the head or end of the work.
  • dateline contains a brief description of the place, date, time, etc. of production of a letter, newspaper story, or other work, prefixed or suffixed to it as a kind of heading or trailer.
  • argument contains a formal list or prose description of the topics addressed by a subdivision of a text.
  • cit (cited quotation) contains a quotation from some other document, together with a bibliographic reference to its source. In a dictionary it may contain an example text with at least one occurrence of the word form, used in the sense being described, or a translation of the headword, or an example.
  • imprimatur contains a formal statement authorizing the publication of a work, sometimes required to appear on a title page or its verso.
  • opener groups together dateline, byline, salutation, and similar phrases appearing as a preliminary group at the start of a division, especially of a letter.
  • closer groups together salutations, datelines, and similar phrases appearing as a final group at the end of a division, especially of a letter.

Epistles which appear elsewhere in a text will, of course, contain these same elements.

As an example, the dedication at the start of Milton's Comus should be marked up as follows:
<div type="dedication">  <head>To the Right Honourable <name>JOHN Lord Viscount BRACLY</name>, Son and Heir apparent    to the Earl of Bridgewater, &amp;c.</head>  <salute>MY LORD,</salute>  <p>THis <hi>Poem</hi>, which receiv'd its first occasion of Birth from your Self, and    others of your Noble Family .... and as in this representation your attendant  <name>Thyrsis</name>, so now in all reall expression</p>  <closer>   <salute>Your faithfull, and most humble servant</salute>   <signed>    <name>H. LAWES.</name>   </signed>  </closer> </div>

18.2. Back Matter

18.2.1. Structural Divisions of Back Matter

Because of variations in publishing practice, back matter can contain virtually any of the elements listed above for front matter, and the same elements should be used where this is so. Additionally, back matter may contain the following types of matter within the <back> element. Like the structural divisions of the body, these should be marked as <div> elements, and distinguished by the following suggested values of the type attribute:

appendix
An ancillary self-contained section of a work, often providing additional but in some sense extra-canonical text.
glossary
A list of terms associated with definition texts (‘glosses’): this should be encoded as a <<list type="gloss">> element
notes
A section in which textual or other kinds of notes are gathered together.
bibliogr
A list of bibliographic citations: this should be encoded as a <listBibl>
index
Any form of pre-existing index to the work (An index may also be generated for a document by using the <index> element described above).
colophon
A statement appearing at the end of a book describing the conditions of its physical production.

19. The Electronic Title Page

Every TEI text has a header which provides information analogous to that provided by the title page of printed text. The header is introduced by the element <teiHeader> and has four major parts:

A corpus or collection of texts with many shared characteristics may have one header for the corpus and individual headers for each component of the corpus. In this case the type attribute indicates the type of header. <teiHeader type="corpus"> introduces the header for corpus-level information.

Some of the header elements contain running prose which consists of one or more <p>s. Others are grouped:

19.1. The File Description

The <fileDesc> element is mandatory. It contains a full bibliographic description of the file with the following elements:

A minimal header has the following structure:
<teiHeader>  <fileDesc>   <titleStmt> <!-- bibliographic description of the digital resource -->   </titleStmt>   <publicationStmt> <!-- information about how the resource is distributed -->   </publicationStmt>   <sourceDesc> <!-- information about the sources from which the digital resource is derived -->   </sourceDesc>  </fileDesc> </teiHeader>

19.1.1. The Title Statement

The following elements can be used in the <titleStmt>:

  • title contains a title for any kind of work.
  • author in a bibliographic reference, contains the name(s) of an author, personal or corporate, of a work; for example in the same form as that provided by a recognized bibliographic name authority.
  • sponsor specifies the name of a sponsoring organization or institution.
  • funder (funding body) specifies the name of an individual, institution, or organization responsible for the funding of a project or text.
  • principal (principal researcher) supplies the name of the principal researcher responsible for the creation of an electronic text.
  • respStmt (statement of responsibility) supplies a statement of responsibility for the intellectual content of a text, edition, recording, or series, where the specialized elements for authors, editors, etc. do not suffice or do not apply. May also be used to encode information about individuals or organizations which have played a role in the production or distribution of a bibliographic work.
The title of a digital resource derived from a non-digital one will obviously be similar. However, it is important to distinguish the title of the computer file from that of the source text, for example:
[title of source]: a machine readable transcription [title of source]: electronic edition A machine readable version of: [title of source]
The <respStmt> element contains the following subcomponents:
  • resp (responsibility) contains a phrase describing the nature of a person's intellectual responsibility, or an organization's role in the production or distribution of a work.
  • name (name, proper noun) contains a proper noun or noun phrase.
Example:
<titleStmt>  <title>Two stories by Edgar Allen Poe: a machine readable transcription</title>  <author>Poe, Edgar Allen (1809-1849)</author>  <respStmt>   <resp>compiled by</resp>   <name>James D. Benson</name>  </respStmt> </titleStmt>

19.1.2. The Edition Statement

The <editionStmt> groups information relating to one edition of the digital resource (where edition is used as elsewhere in bibliography), and may include the following elements:

  • edition describes the particularities of one edition of a text.
  • respStmt (statement of responsibility) supplies a statement of responsibility for the intellectual content of a text, edition, recording, or series, where the specialized elements for authors, editors, etc. do not suffice or do not apply. May also be used to encode information about individuals or organizations which have played a role in the production or distribution of a bibliographic work.
Example:
<editionStmt>  <edition n="U2">Third    draft, substantially revised <date>1987</date>  </edition> </editionStmt>

Determining exactly what constitutes a new edition of an electronic text is left to the encoder.

19.1.3. The Extent Statement

The <extent> statement describes the approximate size of the digital resource.

Example:
<extent>4532 bytes</extent>

19.1.4. The Publication Statement

The <publicationStmt> is mandatory. It may contain a simple prose description or groups of the elements described below:

  • publisher provides the name of the organization responsible for the publication or distribution of a bibliographic item.
  • distributor supplies the name of a person or other agency responsible for the distribution of a text.
  • authority (release authority) supplies the name of a person or other agency responsible for making a work available, other than a publisher or distributor.

At least one of these three elements must be present, unless the entire publication statement is in prose. The following elements may occur within them:

  • pubPlace (publication place) contains the name of the place where a bibliographic item was published.
  • address contains a postal address, for example of a publisher, an organization, or an individual.
  • 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.
  • availability supplies information about the availability of a text, for example any restrictions on its use or distribution, its copyright status, any licence applying to it, etc.
  • licence contains information about a licence or other legal agreement applicable to the text.
  • date contains a date in any format.
Example:
<publicationStmt>  <publisher>University of Victoria Humanities Computing and Media Centre</publisher>  <pubPlace>Victoria, BC</pubPlace>  <date>2011</date>  <availability status="restricted">   <licence target="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/"> Distributed under a      Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License </licence>  </availability> </publicationStmt>

19.1.5. Series and Notes Statements

The <seriesStmt> element groups information about the series, if any, to which a publication belongs. It may contain <title>, <idno>, or <respStmt> elements.

The <notesStmt>, if used, contains one or more <note> elements which contain a note or annotation. Some information found in the notes area in conventional bibliography has been assigned specific elements in the TEI scheme.

19.1.6. The Source Description

The <sourceDesc> is a mandatory element which records details of the source or sources from which the computer file is derived. It may contain simple prose or a bibliographic citation, using one or more of the following elements:

  • bibl (bibliographic citation) contains a loosely-structured bibliographic citation of which the sub-components may or may not be explicitly tagged.
  • listBibl (citation list) contains a list of bibliographic citations of any kind.
Examples:
<sourceDesc>  <bibl>The first folio of Shakespeare, prepared by Charlton Hinman (The Norton Facsimile,    1968)</bibl> </sourceDesc>
<sourceDesc>  <bibl>   <author>CNN Network News</author>   <title>News headlines</title>   <date>12 Jun      1989</date>  </bibl> </sourceDesc>

19.2. The Encoding Description

The <encodingDesc> element specifies the methods and editorial principles which governed the transcription of the text. Its use is highly recommended. It may be prose description or may contain elements from the following list:

19.2.1. Project and Sampling Descriptions

Examples of <projectDesc> and <samplingDesc>:
<encodingDesc>  <projectDesc>   <p>Texts collected for      use in the Claremont Shakespeare Clinic, June 1990.   </p>  </projectDesc> </encodingDesc>
<encodingDesc>  <samplingDecl>   <p>Samples of      2000 words taken from the beginning of the text</p>  </samplingDecl> </encodingDesc>

19.2.2. Editorial Declarations

The <editorialDecl> contains a prose description of the practices used when encoding the text. Typically this description should cover such topics as the following, each of which may conveniently be given as a separate paragraph.

correction
how and under what circumstances corrections have been made in the text.
normalization
the extent to which the original source has been regularized or normalized.
quotation
what has been done with quotation marks in the original -- have they been retained or replaced by entity references, are opening and closing quotes distinguished, etc.
hyphenation
what has been done with hyphens (especially end-of-line hyphens) in the original -- have they been retained, replaced by entity references, etc.
segmentation
how has the text has been segmented, for example into sentences, tone-units, graphemic strata, etc.
interpretation
what analytic or interpretive information has been added to the text.
Example:
<editorialDecl>  <p>The part of    speech analysis applied throughout section 4 was added by hand and has not been    checked.</p>  <p>Errors in transcription controlled by using the WordPerfect spelling    checker.</p>  <p>All words converted to Modern American spelling using Webster's 9th    Collegiate dictionary.</p> </editorialDecl>

19.2.3. Reference and Classification Declarations

The <refsDecl> element is used to document the way in which any standard referencing scheme built into the encoding works. In its simplest form, it consists of prose description.

Example:
<refsDecl>  <p>The <att>n</att>    attribute on each <gi>div</gi> contains the canonical reference for each division in the    form XX.yyy where XX is the book number in roman numeral and yyy is the section number in    arabic.</p>  <p>Milestone tags refer to the edition of 1830 as E30 and that of 1850 as E50.  </p> </refsDecl>

The <classDecl> element groups together definitions or sources for any descriptive classification schemes used by other parts of the header. At least one such scheme must be provided, encoded using the following elements:

  • taxonomy defines a typology either implicitly, by means of a bibliographic citation, or explicitly by a structured taxonomy.
  • bibl (bibliographic citation) contains a loosely-structured bibliographic citation of which the sub-components may or may not be explicitly tagged.
  • 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>.
In the simplest case, the taxonomy may be defined by a bibliographic reference, as in the following example:
<classDecl>  <taxonomy xml:id="LC-SH">   <bibl>Library of Congress Subject Headings   </bibl>  </taxonomy> </classDecl>
Alternatively, or in addition, the encoder may define a special purpose classification scheme, as in the following example:
<taxonomy xml:id="B">  <bibl>Brown Corpus</bibl>  <category xml:id="B.A">   <catDesc>Press      Reportage</catDesc>   <category xml:id="B.A1">    <catDesc>Daily</catDesc>   </category>   <category xml:id="B.A2">    <catDesc>Sunday</catDesc>   </category>   <category xml:id="B.A3">    <catDesc>National</catDesc>   </category>   <category xml:id="B.A4">    <catDesc>Provincial</catDesc>   </category>   <category xml:id="B.A5">    <catDesc>Political</catDesc>   </category>   <category xml:id="B.A6">    <catDesc>Sports</catDesc>   </category>  </category>  <category xml:id="B.D">   <catDesc>Religion</catDesc>   <category xml:id="B.D1">    <catDesc>Books</catDesc>   </category>   <category xml:id="B.D2">    <catDesc>Periodicals and        tracts</catDesc>   </category>  </category> </taxonomy>

Linkage between a particular text and a category within such a taxonomy is made by means of the <catRef> element within the <textClass> element, as described in the next section below.

19.3. The Profile Description

The <profileDesc> element enables information characterizing various descriptive aspects of a text to be recorded within a single framework. It has three optional components:

The <creation> element is useful for documenting where a work was created, even though it may not have been published or recorded there.

Example:
<creation>  <date when="1992-08">August 1992</date>  <name type="place">Taos, New Mexico</name> </creation>
The <langUsage> element is useful where a text contains many different languages. It may contain <language> elements to document each particular language used:
  • language characterizes a single language or sublanguage used within a text.
For example, a text containing predominantly text in French as spoken in Quebec, but also smaller amounts of British and Canadian English might be documented as follows:
<langUsage>  <language ident="fr-CAusage="60">Québecois</language>  <language ident="en-CAusage="20">Canadian business English</language>  <language ident="en-GBusage="20">British English</language> </langUsage>

The <textClass> element classifies a text. This may be done with reference to a classification system locally defined by means of the <classDecl> element, or by reference to some externally defined established scheme such as the Universal Decimal Classification. Texts may also be classified using lists of keywords, which may themselves be drawn from locally or externally defined control lists. The following elements are used to supply such classifications:

The simplest way of classifying a text is by means of the <classCode> element. For example, a text with classification 410 in the Universal Decimal Classification might be documented as follows:
<classCode scheme="http://www.udc.org">410</classCode>
When a classification scheme has been locally defined using the <taxonomy> element discussed in the preceding subsection, the <catRef> element should be used to reference it. To continue the earlier example, a work classified in the Brown Corpus as Press reportage - Sunday and also as Religion might be documented as follows:
<catRef target="#B.A3 #B.D"/>
The element <keywords> contains a list of keywords or phrases identifying the topic or nature of a text. As usual, the attribute scheme identifies the source from which these terms are taken. For example, if the LC Subject Headings are used, following declaration of that classification system in a <taxonomy> element as above :
<textClass>  <keywords scheme="#LCSH">   <list>    <item>English literature -- History and criticism -- Data processing.</item>    <item>English literature -- History and criticism -- Theory etc.</item>    <item>English language -- Style -- Data processing.</item>   </list>  </keywords> </textClass>

Multiple classifications may be supplied using any of the mechanisms described in this section.

19.4. The Revision Description

The <revisionDesc> element provides a change log in which each change made to a text may be recorded. The log may be recorded as a sequence of <change> elements each of which contains a brief description of the change. The attributes when and who may be used to identify when the change was carried out and the agency responsible for it.

Example:
<revisionDesc>  <change when="1991-03-06who="#EMB">File format updated</change>  <change when="1990-05-25who="#EMB">Stuart's corrections entered</change> </revisionDesc>

In a production environment it will usually be found preferable to use some kind of automated system to track and record changes. Many such version control systems, as they are known, can also be configured to update the TEI Header of a file automatically.

Appendix A List of Elements Described

The TEI Lite schema is a pure subset of TEI P5. In the following list of elements and classes used, some information, notably the examples, derives from the canonical definition for the element in TEI P5 and may therefore refer to elements or attributes not provided by TEI Lite. Note however that only the elements listed here are available within the TEI Lite schema. These specifications also refer to many attributes which although available in TEI Lite are not discussed in this tutorial for lack of space.

Appendix A.1 Elements

Appendix A.1.1 <TEI>

<TEI> (TEI document) contains a single TEI-conformant document, combining a single TEI header with one or more members of the model.resource class. Multiple <TEI> elements may be combined within a <TEI> (or <teiCorpus>) element. [4. Default Text Structure 15.1. Varieties of Composite Text]

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 [[undefined PETTY]]

If abbreviations are expanded silently, this practice should be documented in the <editorialDecl>, either with a <normalization> element or a <p>.

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.

Example
The story I am going to relate is true as to its main facts, and as to the consequences <add place="above">of these facts</add> from which this tale takes its title.

This element should be used for postal addresses only. Within it, the generic element <addrLine> may be used as an alternative to any of the more specialized elements available from the model.addrPart class, such as <street>, <postCode> etc.

ExampleUsing just the elements defined by the core module, an address could be represented as follows:
<address>  <street>via Marsala 24</street>  <postCode>40126</postCode>  <name>Bologna</name>  <name>Italy</name> </address>
ExampleWhen a schema includes the names and dates module more specific elements such as country or settlement would be preferable over generic <name>:
<address>  <street>via Marsala 24</street>  <postCode>40126</postCode>  <settlement>Bologna</settlement>  <country>Italy</country> </address>

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.

When a single page is being cited, use the from and to attributes with an identical value. When no clear endpoint is provided, the from attribute may be used without to; for example a citation such as ‘p. 3ff’ might be encoded <biblScope from="3">p. 3ff<biblScope>.

It is now considered good practice to supply this element as a sibling (rather than a child) of <imprint>, since it supplies information which does not constitute part of the imprint.

Appendix A.1.21 <certainty>

<certainty> indicates the degree of certainty associated with some aspect of the text markup. [21.1.2. Structured Indications of Uncertainty]
Modulecertainty
AttributesAttributes att.scoping (@target, @match) att.global (@xml:id, @n, @xml:lang, @xml:space) att.global.rendition (@rend) att.global.linking (@corresp, @next, @prev) att.global.analytic (@ana) att.global.facs (@facs) att.global.responsibility (cert, @resp) att.global.source (@source)
cert(certainty) signifies the degree of certainty associated with the object pointed to by the <certainty> element.
Derived fromatt.global.responsibility
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.certainty
locusindicates more exactly the aspect concerning which certainty is being expressed: specifically, whether the markup is correctly located, whether the correct element or attribute name has been used, or whether the content of the element or attribute is correct, etc.
StatusRequired
Datatypeteidata.enumerated
Legal values are:
name
uncertainty concerns whether the name of the element or attribute used is correctly applied.
start
uncertainty concerns whether the start of the element is correctly identified.
end
uncertainty concerns whether the end of the element is correctly identified.
location
uncertainty concerns both the start and the end of the element.
value
uncertainty concerns the content (for an element) or the value (for an attribute)
assertedValueprovides an alternative value for the aspect of the markup in question—an alternative generic identifier, transcription, or attribute value, or the identifier of an <anchor> element (to indicate an alternative starting or ending location). If an assertedValue is given, the confidence level specified by degree applies to the alternative markup specified by assertedValue; if none is given, it applies to the markup in the text.
StatusRecommended
Datatypeteidata.word
<certainty assertedValue="placeName"  cert="low"  locus="name"  target="#ESX">  <desc>It is unlikely, but possible, that this refers to the place    rather than the person.</desc> </certainty>
Note

This attribute makes it possible to indicate the degree of confidence in a specific alternative to some aspect of the markup. In the first example above the encoder is expressing the likelihood (.2) that the generic identifier should be <placeName> rather than <persName>, which is the coded element.

givenindicates one or more element(s) characterizing the conditions which are assumed in the assignment of a degree of confidence.
StatusRecommended
Datatype1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
Note

The envisioned typical value of this attribute would be the identifier of another <certainty> element or a list of such identifiers. It may thus be possible to construct probability networks by chaining <certainty> elements together. Such networks would ultimately be grounded in unconditional <certainty> elements (with no value for given). The semantics of this chaining would be understood in this way: if a <certainty> element is specified, via a reference, as the assumption, then it is not the attribution of uncertainty that is the assumption, but rather the assertion itself. For instance, in the example above, the first <certainty> element indicates that the confidence in the identification of the new scribe as msm. The second indicates the degree of confidence that Essex is a personal name, given that the new scribe is msm. Note that the given in the second <certainty> element is not the assertion that the likelihood that msm is the new scribe is 0.6, but simply the assertion that msm is the new scribe; this is a recommended convention to facilitate building networks.

The ambitious encoder may wish to attempt complex networks or probability assertions, experimenting with references to other elements or prose assertions, and deploying feature structure connectives such as <alt>, <join>, and <note>. However, we do not believe that the <certainty> element gives, at this time, a comprehensive ambiguity-free system for indicating certainty.

degreeindicates the degree of confidence assigned to the aspect of the markup named by the locus attribute.

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.

ExampleAn 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.

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.

core: head
Note

This element is intended primarily for use in document production or manipulation, rather than in the transcription of pre-existing materials; it makes it easier to specify the location of indices, tables of contents, etc., to be generated by text preparation or word processing software.

ExampleOne use for this element is to allow document preparation software to generate an index and insert it in the appropriate place in the output. The example below assumes that the indexName attribute on <index> elements in the text has been used to specify index entries for the two generated indexes, named NAMES and THINGS:
<back>  <div1 type="backmat">   <head>Bibliography</head> <!-- ... -->  </div1>  <div1 type="backmat">   <head>Indices</head>   <divGen n="Index Nominumtype="NAMES"/>   <divGen n="Index Rerumtype="THINGS"/>  </div1> </back>
ExampleAnother use for <divGen> is to specify the location of an automatically produced table of contents:
<front> <!--<titlePage>...</titlePage>-->  <divGen type="toc"/>  <div>   <head>Preface</head>   <p> ... </p>  </div> </front>

Personal food insecurity was assessed with        five additional questions. Obesity was defined, using physical        measurements, as body mass index (calculated as kg/m2) greater than        or equal to the age- and sex-specific 95th percentile of the Centers        for Disease Control and Prevention growth charts. Logistic        regressions adjusted for sex, race/ethnic group, poverty level, and        survey year were conducted to describe associations between obesity        and food insecurity.</p>   </div>   <div>    <head> RESULTS:</head>    <p>Obesity was significantly associated with personal food insecurity        for children aged 6 to 11 years (odds ratio=1.81; 95% CI 1.33 to        2.48), but not in children aged 2 to 5 years (odds ratio=0.88; 95%        CI 0.51 to 1.51).

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.

Within the body of a text, a <graphic> element indicates the presence of a graphic component in the source itself. Within the context of a <facsimile> or <sourceDoc> element, however, a <graphic> element provides an additional digital representation of some part of the source being encoded.

Example
<figure>  <graphic url="fig1.png"/>  <head>Figure One: The View from the Bridge</head>  <figDesc>A Whistleresque view showing four or five sailing boats in the foreground, and a    series of buoys strung out between them.</figDesc> </figure>

Note

The <head> element is used for headings at all levels; software which treats (e.g.) chapter headings, section headings, and list titles differently must determine the proper processing of a <head> element based on its structural position. A <head> occurring as the first element of a list is the title of that list; one occurring as the first element of a <div1> is the title of that chapter or section.

ExampleThe most common use for the <head> element is to mark the headings of sections. In older writings, the headings or incipits may be rather longer than usual in modern works. If a section has an explicit ending as well as a heading, it should be marked as a <trailer>, as in this example:
<div1 n="Itype="book">  <head>In the name of Christ here begins the first book of the ecclesiastical history of    Georgius Florentinus, known as Gregory, Bishop of Tours.</head>  <div2 type="section">   <head>In the name of Christ here begins Book I of the history.</head>   <p>Proposing as I do ...</p>   <p>From the Passion of our Lord until the death of Saint Martin four hundred and twelve      years passed.</p>   <trailer>Here ends the first Book, which covers five thousand, five hundred and ninety-six      years from the beginning of the world down to the death of Saint Martin.</trailer>  </div2> </div1>
ExampleWhen headings are not inline with the running text (see e.g. the heading "Secunda conclusio") they might however be encoded as if. The actual placement in the source document can be captured with the place attribute.
<div type="subsection">  <head place="margin">Secunda conclusio</head>  <p>   <lb n="1251"/>   <hi rend="large">Potencia: habitus: et actus: recipiunt speciem ab obiectis<supplied>.</supplied>   </hi>   <lb n="1252"/>Probatur sic. Omne importans necessariam habitudinem ad proprium    [...]  </p> </div>
ExampleThe <head> element is also used to mark headings of other units, such as lists:
With a few exceptions, connectives are equally useful in all kinds of discourse: description, narration, exposition, argument. <list rend="bulleted">  <head>Connectives</head>  <item>above</item>  <item>accordingly</item>  <item>across from</item>  <item>adjacent to</item>  <item>again</item>  <item> <!-- ... -->  </item> </list>

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.

ExampleLabels are commonly used for the headwords in glossary lists; note the use of the global xml:lang attribute to set the default language of the glossary list to Middle English, and identify the glosses and headings as modern English or Latin:
<list type="glossxml:lang="enm">  <head xml:lang="en">Vocabulary</head>  <headLabel xml:lang="en">Middle English</headLabel>  <headItem xml:lang="en">New English</headItem>  <label>nu</label>  <item xml:lang="en">now</item>  <label>lhude</label>  <item xml:lang="en">loudly</item>  <label>bloweth</label>  <item xml:lang="en">blooms</item>  <label>med</label>  <item xml:lang="en">meadow</item>  <label>wude</label>  <item xml:lang="en">wood</item>  <label>awe</label>  <item xml:lang="en">ewe</item>  <label>lhouth</label>  <item xml:lang="en">lows</item>  <label>sterteth</label>  <item xml:lang="en">bounds, frisks (cf. <cit>    <ref>Chaucer, K.T.644</ref>    <quote>a courser, <term>sterting</term>as the fyr</quote>   </cit>  </item>  <label>verteth</label>  <item xml:lang="la">pedit</item>  <label>murie</label>  <item xml:lang="en">merrily</item>  <label>swik</label>  <item xml:lang="en">cease</item>  <label>naver</label>  <item xml:lang="en">never</item> </list>
ExampleLabels may also be used to record explicitly the numbers or letters which mark list items in ordered lists, as in this extract from Gibbon's Autobiography. In this usage the <label> element is synonymous with the n attribute on the <item> element:
I will add two facts, which have seldom occurred in the composition of six, or at least of five quartos. <list rend="runontype="ordered">  <label>(1)</label>  <item>My first rough manuscript, without any intermediate copy, has been sent to the press.</item>  <label>(2) </label>  <item>Not a sheet has been seen by any human eyes, excepting those of the author and the    printer: the faults and the merits are exclusively my own.</item> </list>
ExampleLabels may also be used for other structured list items, as in this extract from the journal of Edward Gibbon:
<list type="gloss">  <label>March 1757.</label>  <item>I wrote some critical observations upon Plautus.</item>  <label>March 8th.</label>  <item>I wrote a long dissertation upon some lines of Virgil.</item>  <label>June.</label>  <item>I saw Mademoiselle Curchod — <quote xml:lang="la">Omnia vincit amor, et nos cedamus      amori.</quote>  </item>  <label>August.</label>  <item>I went to Crassy, and staid two days.</item> </list>
Note that the <label> might also appear within the <item> rather than as its sibling. Though syntactically valid, this usage is not recommended TEI practice.
ExampleLabels may also be used to represent a label or heading attached to a paragraph or sequence of paragraphs not treated as a structural division, or to a group of verse lines. Note that, in this case, the <label> element appears within the <p> or <lg> element, rather than as a preceding sibling of it.
<p>[...] <lb/>&amp; n’entrer en mauuais &amp; mal-heu- <lb/>ré meſnage. Or des que le conſente- <lb/>ment des parties y eſt le mariage eſt <lb/> arreſté, quoy que de faict il ne ſoit <label place="margin">Puiſſance maritale    entre les Romains.</label>  <lb/> conſommé.

In this example the text of the label appears in the right hand margin of the original source, next to the paragraph it describes, but approximately in the middle of it. If so desired the type attribute may be used to distinguish different categories of label.

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.

ExampleThis 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>
ExampleThis 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.
<titlePart>  <lb/>With Additions, ne-<lb break="no"/>ver before Printed. </titlePart>

typedescribes the nature of the items in the list.
Derived fromatt.typed
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.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.

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.

ExampleThe 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      the sign of the Holy Cross.</item>   <item>I, Tilberht, prelate of the church of Hexham, rejoicing have subscribed with the      sign of the Holy Cross.</item>   <item>I, Higbald, bishop of the church of Lindisfarne, obeying have subscribed with the      sign of the Holy Cross.</item>   <item>I, Ethelbert, bishop of Candida Casa, suppliant, have subscribed with thef sign of      the Holy Cross.</item>   <item>I, Ealdwulf, bishop of the church of Mayo, have subscribed with devout will.</item>   <item>I, Æthelwine, bishop, have subscribed through delegates.</item>   <item>I, Sicga, patrician, have subscribed with serene mind with the sign of the Holy      Cross.</item>  </list> </p>

Defaulttrue
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.
StatusOptional
Datatype1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
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().

ExampleIn 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. <!-- elsewhere in the document --> <respStmt xml:id="MDMH">  <resp>translation from German to English</resp>  <name>Hottinger, Marie Donald Mackie</name> </respStmt>
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.
ExampleThe 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.

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. The more specialized attributes break, ed, or edRef should be preferred when the intent is to indicate whether or not the page break is word-breaking, or to note the source from which it derives.

ExamplePage 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>
ExampleA 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> <!-- ... -->  </p>  <pb facs="page2.pngn="2"/> <!-- similarly, for page 2 -->  <p> <!-- ... -->  </p> </body>

Where a publication statement contains several members of the model.publicationStmtPart.agency or model.publicationStmtPart.detail 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

The <respons> element is designed for cases in which fine-grained information about specific aspects of the markup of a text is desirable for whatever reason. Global responsibility for certain aspects of markup is usually more simply indicated in the TEI header, using the <respStmt> element within the title statement, edition statement, or change log.

Example
<respons locus="name location"  resp="#encoder1target="#p1"/> <respons locus="valuematch="@rend"  resp="#encoder2target="#p2"/> <list type="encoders">  <item xml:id="encoder1"/>  <item xml:id="encoder2"/> </list>
ExampleIn this (partially fictional) example the entire document was transcribed and encoded by a single encoder, except for one passage which was transcribed and encoded by the proofreader.
<!-- in the <teiHeader>: --><respStmt xml:id="enc01">  <name>C. Colin Backslash</name>  <resp>transcription</resp>  <resp>encoding</resp> </respStmt> <respStmt xml:id="prf01">  <name>Erin Spelling</name>  <resp>proofreading</resp> </respStmt> <!-- in the <text>: --> <p>Θερινὴ τροπή <lb/>  <foreign xml:id="mp0a8xml:lang="hbo"> ת  <supplied reason="undefined">קו</supplied>   <unclear>פ</unclear>    ת תמוז  </foreign> </p> <!-- elsewhere: --> <respons locus="name valueresp="#prf01"  target="#mp0a8"/>
ExampleIn this (partially fictional) example an initial encoder (‘across.dta’) encoded most of the document; a later encoder (‘rcapolung.ewo’) encoded a particular passage; and a third encoder (‘sbauman.emt’) fixed some of that encoding.

Note

The <seg> element may be used at the encoder's discretion to mark any segments of the text of interest for processing. One use of the element is to mark text features for which no appropriate markup is otherwise defined. Another use is to provide an identifier for some segment which is to be pointed at by some other element—i.e. to provide a target, or a part of a target, for a <ptr> or other similar element.

Example
<seg>When are you leaving?</seg> <seg>Tomorrow.</seg>
Example
<s>  <seg rend="capstype="initial-cap">So father's only</seg> glory was the ballfield. </s>

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.

Sample values include:

main title
sub
(subordinate) subtitle, title of part
alt
(alternate) alternate title, often in another language, by which the work is also known
short
abbreviated form of title
desc
(descriptive) descriptive paraphrase of the work functioning as a title
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.
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.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.

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.

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.

Appendix A.3.5 att.canonical

<author>  <name key="Hugo, Victor (1802-1885)"   ref="http://www.idref.fr/026927608">Victor Hugo</name> </author>
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.
StatusOptional
Datatype1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
<name ref="http://viaf.org/viaf/109557338"  type="person">Seamus Heaney</name>
Note

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.

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.

Appendix A.3.8 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.

Appendix A.3.9 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.

xml:id(identifier) provides a unique identifier for the element bearing the attribute.
StatusOptional
DatatypeID
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.
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.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.
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.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:spacesignals an intention about how white space should be managed by applications.
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.enumerated
Legal values are:
default
signals that the application's default white-space processing modes are acceptable
preserve
indicates the intent that applications preserve all white space
Note

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

Appendix A.3.19 att.global.analytic

att.global.analytic provides additional global attributes for associating specific analyses or interpretations with appropriate portions of a text. [17.2. Global Attributes for Simple Analyses 17.3. Spans and Interpretations]

When multiple values are given, they may reflect either multiple divergent interpretations of an ambiguous text, or multiple mutually consistent interpretations of the same passage in different contexts.

Appendix A.3.21 att.global.linking

corresp(corresponds) points to elements that correspond to the current element in some way.
StatusOptional
Datatype1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
<group>  <text xml:id="t1-g1-t1"   xml:lang="mi">   <body xml:id="t1-g1-t1-body1">    <div type="chapter">     <head>He Whakamaramatanga mo te Ture Hoko, Riihi hoki, i nga Whenua Maori, 1876.</head>     <p></p>    </div>   </body>  </text>  <text xml:id="t1-g1-t2"   xml:lang="en">   <body corresp="#t1-g1-t1-body1"    xml:id="t1-g1-t2-body1">    <div type="chapter">     <head>An Act to regulate the Sale, Letting, and Disposal of Native Lands, 1876.</head>     <p></p>    </div>   </body>  </text> </group>
In this example a <group> contains two <text>s, each containing the same document in a different language. The correspondence is indicated using corresp. The language is indicated using xml:lang, whose value is inherited; both the tag with the corresp and the tag pointed to by the corresp inherit the value from their immediate parent.
<!-- In a placeography called "places.xml" --><place corresp="people.xml#LOND2 people.xml#GENI1"  xml:id="LOND1">  <placeName>London</placeName>  <desc>The city of London...</desc> </place> <!-- In a literary personography called "people.xml" --> <person corresp="places.xml#LOND1 #GENI1"  xml:id="LOND2">  <persName type="lit">London</persName>  <note>   <p>Allegorical character representing the city of <placeName ref="places.xml#LOND1">London</placeName>.</p>  </note> </person> <person corresp="places.xml#LOND1 #LOND2"  xml:id="GENI1">  <persName type="lit">London’s Genius</persName>  <note>   <p>Personification of London’s genius. Appears as an      allegorical character in mayoral shows.   </p>  </note> </person>
In this example, a <place> element containing information about the city of London is linked with two <person> elements in a literary personography. This correspondence represents a slightly looser relationship than the one in the preceding example; there is no sense in which an allegorical character could be substituted for the physical city, or vice versa, but there is obviously a correspondence between them.
nextpoints to the next element of a virtual aggregate of which the current element is part.
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.pointer
Note

It is recommended that the element indicated be of the same type as the element bearing this attribute.

prev(previous) points to the previous element of a virtual aggregate of which the current element is part.
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.pointer
Note

It is recommended that the element indicated be of the same type as the element bearing this attribute.

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.

Appendix A.3.23 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. [1.3.1.1.4. Sources, certainty, and responsibility 3.4. Simple Editorial Changes 11.3.2.2. Hand, Responsibility, and Certainty Attributes 17.3. Spans and Interpretations 13.1.1.

cert(certainty) signifies the degree of certainty associated with the intervention or interpretation.
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.probCert
resp(responsible party) indicates the agency responsible for the intervention or interpretation, for example an editor or transcriber.
StatusOptional
Datatype1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
Note

To reduce the ambiguity of a resp pointing directly to a person or organization, 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>cheesemakers</sic>  <corr cert="highresp="#editor">peacemakers</corr> </choice>: for they shall be called the children of God.
Example
<!-- in the <text> ... --><lg> <!-- ... -->  <l>Punkes, Panders, baſe extortionizing    sla<choice>    <sic>n</sic>    <corr resp="#JENS1_transcriber">u</corr>   </choice>es,</l> <!-- ... --> </lg> <!-- in the <teiHeader> ... --> <!-- ... --> <respStmt xml:id="JENS1_transcriber">  <resp when="2014">Transcriber</resp>  <name>Janelle Jenstad</name> </respStmt>

Appendix A.3.24 att.global.source

att.global.source provides an attribute used by elements to point to an external source. [1.3.1.1.4. Sources, certainty, and responsibility 3.3.3. Quotation 8.3.4. Writing]

AttributesAttributes
sourcespecifies the source from which some aspect of this element is drawn.
StatusOptional
Datatype1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
Note

The source attribute points to an external source. When used on elements describing schema components such as <schemaSpec> or <moduleRef> it identifies the source from which declarations for the components of the object being defined may be obtained.

On other elements it provides a pointer to the bibliographical source from which a quotation or citation is drawn.

In either case, the location may be provided using any form of URI, for example an absolute URI, a relative URI, or private scheme URI that is expanded to an absolute URI as documented in a <prefixDef>.

If more than one location is specified, the default assumption is that the required source should be obtained by combining the resources indicated.

Example
<p> <!-- ... --> As Willard McCarty (<bibl xml:id="mcc_2012">2012, p.2</bibl>) tells us, <quote source="#mcc_2012">‘Collaboration’ is a problematic and should be a contested    term.</quote> <!-- ... --> </p>
Example
<p> <!-- ... -->  <quote source="#chicago_15_ed">Grammatical theories are in flux, and the more we learn, the    less we seem to know.</quote> <!-- ... --> </p> <!-- ... --> <bibl xml:id="chicago_15_ed">  <title level="m">The Chicago Manual of Style</title>, <edition>15th edition</edition>. <pubPlace>Chicago</pubPlace>: <publisher>University of    Chicago Press</publisher> (<date>2003</date>), <biblScope unit="page">p.147</biblScope>. </bibl>
Example
<elementRef key="psource="tei:2.0.1"/>
Include in the schema an element named <p> available from the TEI P5 2.0.1 release.
Example
<schemaSpec ident="myODD"  source="mycompiledODD.xml"> <!-- further declarations specifying the components required --> </schemaSpec>
Create a schema using components taken from the file mycompiledODD.xml.

pos(part of speech) indicates the part of speech assigned to a token (i.e. information on whether it is a noun, adjective, or verb), usually according to some official reference vocabulary (e.g. for German: STTS, for English: CLAWS, for Polish: NKJP, etc.).
StatusOptional

msd(morphosyntactic description) supplies morphosyntactic information for a token, usually according to some official reference vocabulary (e.g. for German: STTS-large tagset; for a feature description system designed as (pragmatically) universal, see Universal Features).
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.text

joinwhen present, it provides information on whether the token in question is adjacent to another, and if so, on which side. The definition of this attribute is adapted from ISO MAF (Morpho-syntactic Annotation Framework), ISO 24611:2012.
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.text
Legal values are:
no
(the token is not adjacent to another)
left
(there is no whitespace on the left side of the token)
right
(there is no whitespace on the right side of the token)
both
(there is no whitespace on either side of the token)
overlap
(the token overlaps with another; other devices (specifying the extent and the area of overlap) are needed to more precisely locate this token in the character stream)
The example below assumes that the lack of whitespace is marked redundantly, by using the appropriate values of join.
<s>  <pc join="right">"</pc>  <w join="left">Friends</w>  <w>will</w>  <w>be</w>  <w join="right">friends</w>  <pc join="both">.</pc>  <pc join="left">"</pc> </s>
Note that a project may make a decision to only indicate lack of whitespace in one direction, or do that non-redundantly. The existing proposal is the broadest possible, on the assumption that we adopt the "streamable view", where all the information on the current element needs to be represented locally.
The English sentence ‘We're going on vacation.’ tagged with the CLAWS-5 tagset, arranged sequentially, tagged on the assumption that only the lack of the preceding whitespace is indicated.
<p>  <w pos="PNP">We</w>  <w join="left"   pos="VBB">'re</w>  <w pos="VVG">going</w>  <w pos="PRP">on</w>  <w pos="NN1">vacation</w>  <pc join="left"   pos="PUN">.</pc> </p>
Note

These attributes make it possible to encode simple language corpora and to add a layer of linguistic information to any tokenized resource. See section 17.4.2. Lightweight Linguistic Annotation for discussion.

Modulecore
Membersmilestone
AttributesAttributes

StatusRequired
Datatypeteidata.enumerated
Suggested values include:

physical page breaks (synonymous with the <pb> element).
column
column breaks.
line
line breaks (synonymous with the <lb> element).
book
any units termed book, liber, etc.
poem
individual poems in a collection.
canto
cantos or other major sections of a poem.
speaker
changes of speaker or narrator.
stanza
stanzas within a poem, book, or canto.
act
acts within a play.
scene
scenes within a play or act.
section
sections of any kind.
absent
passages not present in the reference edition.
unnumbered
passages present in the text, but not to be included as part of the reference.
<milestone ed="La"  n="23"  unit="Dreissiger"/> ... <milestone ed="AV"  n="24"  unit="verse"/> ...
Note

If the milestone marks the beginning of a piece of text not present in the reference edition, the special value absent may be used as the value of unit. The normal interpretation is that the reference edition does not contain the text which follows, until the next <milestone> tag for the edition in question is encountered.

In addition to the values suggested, other terms may be appropriate (e.g. Stephanus for the Stephanus numbers in Plato).

The type attribute may be used to characterize the unit boundary in any respect other than simply identifying the type of unit, for example as word-breaking or not.

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.

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

If no value is given, the application program is responsible for deciding (possibly on the basis of user input) how far to trace a chain of pointers.

matchsupplies an arbitrary XPath expression using the syntax defined in [[undefined XSLT2]] which identifies a set of nodes, selected within the context identified by the target attribute if this is supplied, or within the context of the parent element if it is not.
StatusOptional
Datatypeteidata.xpath
<gap reason="cancelled">  <certainty cert="low"   locus="value"   match="@reason"/> </gap>
Note

The expression of certainty applies to the nodeset identified by the value of the target attribute, possibly modified additionally by the value of the match attribute. If more than one identifier is given, the implication is that all elements (or nodesets) are intended. The match attribute may also be used as a means of identifying groups of elements.

If target and match are present, target selects an element and the XPath expression in match is evaluated in the context of that element. If neither attribute is present, the expression applies to its parent element. If only target is given, the expression refers to the selected element or nodeset. If only match is given, the XPath expression is evaluated in the context of the parent element of the bearing element.

Note that the value of the target attribute may include an XPointer expression including an XPath expression (see 16.2.4. TEI XPointer Schemes).

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.

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)

teidata.pointer = xsd:anyURI
Note

The range of syntactically valid values is defined by RFC 3986 Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax. Note that the values themselves are encoded using RFC 3987 Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs) mapping to URIs. For example, https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/% is encoded as https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/%25 while http://موقع.وزارة-الاتصالات.مصر/ is encoded as http://xn--4gbrim.xn----rmckbbajlc6dj7bxne2c.xn--wgbh1c/

Appendix A.5.12 teidata.probCert

teidata.probCert defines a range of attribute values which can be expressed either as a numeric probability or as a coded certainty value.

 | xsd:gMonth
 | xsd:gDay
 | xsd:gYearMonth
 | xsd:gMonthDay
 | xsd:time
 | xsd:dateTime
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.

Appendix A.5.16 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
Used by
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.

Appendix A.5.17 teidata.truthValue

teidata.truthValue defines the range of attribute values used to express a truth value.
Moduletei
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.

Appendix A.5.18 teidata.version

teidata.version defines the range of attribute values which may be used to specify a TEI or Unicode version number.
Moduletei
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.

Appendix A.5.19 teidata.versionNumber

teidata.versionNumber defines the range of attribute values used for version numbers.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <dataRef name="token"
  restriction="[\d]+[a-z]*[\d]*(\.[\d]+[a-z]*[\d]*){0,3}"/>

Declaration
teidata.versionNumber =
   token { pattern = "[\d]+[a-z]*[\d]*(\.[\d]+[a-z]*[\d]*){0,3}" }

Appendix A.5.20 teidata.word

teidata.word defines the range of attribute values expressed as a single word or token.
Moduletei

 <dataRef name="token"
  restriction="[^\p{C}\p{Z}]+"/>
</content>
    
Declaration
teidata.word = token { pattern = "[^\p{C}\p{Z}]+" }
Note

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

Appendix A.5.21 teidata.xTruthValue

teidata.xTruthValue (extended truth value) defines the range of attribute values used to express a truth value which may be unknown.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <alternate>
  <dataRef name="boolean"/>
  <valList>
   <valItem ident="unknown"/>
   <valItem ident="inapplicable"/>
  </valList>
 </alternate>
</content>
    
Declaration
teidata.xTruthValue = xsd:boolean | ( "unknown" | "inapplicable" )
Note

In cases where where uncertainty is inappropriate, use the datatype data.TruthValue.

Appendix A.5.22 teidata.xpath

teidata.xpath defines attribute values which contain an XPath expression.
Moduletei
Used by
Content model
<content>
 <textNode/>
</content>
    
Declaration
teidata.xpath = text
Note

Any XPath expression using the syntax defined in [[undefined XSLT2]].

When writing programs that evaluate XPath expressions, programmers should be mindful of the possibility of malicious code injection attacks. For further information about XPath injection attacks, see the article at OWASP.

Notes
1
A namespace is an XML concept. Its function is to identify the vocabulary from which a group of element names are drawn, using a standard identifier resembling a web address. The namespace for all TEI elements is http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0

The relevant standard is Best Current Practice 47 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47). The authoritative list of registered subtags is maintained by IANA and is available at http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry.
