Work completed today on the Forest Nuptiale
Today, my work consisted of doing line by line proofreading of the text and XML markup of the Forest Nuptiale (starting from page 14 of the pdf) as well as searching for terms that required references to be written. So far, I haven't found any new terms that need references but below is a list of some of the work I did on the XML markup:
1) added missing <head> tags
2) replaced <hi rend="font-style: italic;"> with <title level="m"> where applicable
3) added missing drop-caps
4) modified font style, font size; font variant and letter spacing
5) added missing <sig> tags
6) Checked that existing reference links were functioning online
7) added linguistic notes where applicable
There seems to be a lot of work to be done in terms of the above tasks on markup. I doubt I will be able to get through the entire text by the end of the month but I will do my best.
I have switched computers yet again (the first time was because the power died on Radicchio), this time it's due to Java and Oxygen not wanting to cooperate on Mac. Fortunately (but sadly), now that LCC is no longer using Arugula, I can work on it. I haven't had any problems so far.
