Our editorial and encoding practices are documented in detail in the Praxis section of our website.
When you submit a contribution to us, you will probably send us a file that you have prepared using a word processing program (Word, OpenOffice, etc) or some kind of text editor. We will then
Word processing (and writing in general) does involve a kind of markup, but it is ambiguous and context-dependent. For example, when you are word processing, you might italicize to indicate visually that a passage is in Latin. Italicization, indentation, capitalization, spacing, and other typographical and handwriting conventions are a form of markup. However, such markup is potentially ambiguous: italicization can mean lots of different things, such as a foreign word, a monograph title, an emphasized word, or a transcription of a word that was italicized in its original context; in the past, printers italicized all names. Because italicization is ambiguous, machines cannot parse it. Human readers draw on context, typographical conventions, and disciplinary conventions to parse an italicized phrase as an instance of a foreign language, or an indented bit of text as a long quotation (especially if it has a parenthetical page reference at the end, which functions as a corroborating bit of markup).
The kind of encoding that we do with TEI-XML, however, demands that we encode truthfully and label things as what they actually are. Our markup has to be unambiguous. When we are encoding your file, we will add tags to mark up a long quotation as a citation using the

British Printed Images to 1700 is a digital library of prints and book illustrations from early modern Britain. It also offers various resources aimed at furthering our knowledge and understanding of them.. Most of the images in this extraordinarily useful resource come from the British Library Department of Prints and Drawings; the rest come from various other institutions, including the National Art Library (at the Victoria and Albert Museum). Teachers will be interested in the Resources Section. A handy feature is the alphabetical list ofThe core of the project is the database, a fully searchable library of several thousand printed images
