Future corrections needed in the Forest nuptiale
Posted by lauren on 21 Jul 2010 in Academic
As I rapidly approach the end of my work on the anthology, I'm realizing there is a lot still needing to be done encoding-wise in the Forest nuptiale that I will not have a chance to complete. I will attempt to make a list of the tasks below in hopes that mholmes and ccarlin will take them up once I've left, because this text has the potential to be a phenomenal addition to the anthology.
- There is currently no <text rendition="layoutDesc"> following the TEI header, which means that there is no front matter, no <titlePage>, no <docImprint>, no <docDate>, no <imprimatur>, etc., which means that in the XHTML, there is no title page (obviously).
- On that subject, there is also a <text type="book" xml:lang="fr-1694acad" rendition="layoutDesc"> directly following the TEI header, and I'm not sure what purpose it serves or if we want to keep it.
- The marginal notes are absolutely instrumental to this text, and at the moment, they are not showing up. emurphy has used a <note target="#anchor(number) targetEnd="#anchor(number"> to do this.
- In addition, the issue of the columns in the lists following the "Avant Propos" needs to be attended to (I have already blogged on this -- it's the "Lists in columns in the Forest nuptiale", also assigned to mholmes.
- Finally, I will not have had the time to write all of the references, so hopefully ccarlin will be able to fill in the ones I have not managed to complete during my hours.
