Notes

  1. See Praxis for written documentation on how to encode a primary source document and specific instructions for how to encode a mayoral pageant book. (TLG)↑
  2. The second two elements in this template indicate the relative path to the schema. Note that the relative path to the schema will depend on the exact location of the document itself (i.e., how deep the document is in the /data folder) relative to the schema. If the document is one level deep (e.g., /data/subfolder/FILE1.xml), then the @href value should read "../rng/london_all.rng". Likewise, if the document is two levels deep (e.g., /data/subfolder/subfolder/FILE1.xml then the @href value should read "../../rng/london_all.rng". Extrapolate this pattern for further levels of depth. Primary source documents are most often located within two subfolders, so this template uses an @href value of "../../rng/london_all.rng". (TLG)↑
  3. The value for the @xml:id attribute should match the document’s filename. For more information, see docunmentation on document structure. (TLG)↑
  4. We use the <teiHeader> to encode metadata for documents. For more information, see documentation on encoding a <teiHeader>. (TLG)↑
  5. Use the <title> element to tag the document’s short name in regularized spelling. This title will appear in MoEML menus and splash pages. (TLG)↑
  6. For information about how to add content to the <respStmt> tag, see documentation on the encoding responsibility statements. Note that, depending on the primary source document you are encoding, you may not necessarily include all the responsibilty statements listed in this template. Conversely, you may include responsibility statements that are not listed in this template. For a complete list of possible roles to which you may ascribe responsibility, see the taxonomy of molRelators at the beginning of the PERS1.xml database document (visible in standalone XML). Our taxonomy of molRelator codes corresponds with the Library of Congress’s taxonomy of marcRelator codes. (TLG)↑
  7. In most cases, the first transcriber will be the Early English Books Online - Text Creation Partnership (EEBO-TCP). The @xml:id for EEBO-TCP is "EEBO1". (TLG)↑
  8. Continue adding responsibility statements as necessary. (TLG)↑
  9. Insert straight apostrophe characters where noted using the Find and Replace tool (Ctrl+F) in Oxygen. (TLG)↑
  10. For example, Original transcription from EEBO-TCP; new transcription by Michael Stevens. (TLG)↑
  11. We use the <catRef> element to classify documents according to the MoEML Document Type Taxonomy. For more information, see documentation on understanding the mdt taxonomy and list of document types. (TLG)↑
  12. Use the <tagsDecl> and <rendition> elements to declare metadata style properties that are specific to the primary source document you are encoding, such as the font and size of signatures. For more information, see the praxis instructions for using the <rendition> element and @rendition attribute. (TLG)↑
  13. We use the <editorialDecl> element to record editorial principles and practices employed while transcribing the primary source text. For certain types of primary source texts, such as mayoral shows, editorial principles and practices are standardized and we therefore use a standard editorial declaration. For new or less common types of primary source texts, editorial principles and practices are not standardized and you will therefore be responsible for describing your the practices and principles you employed. See Editorial Declaration for Mayoral Shows and <editorialDecl> in the TEI P5 Guidelines for more information. (TLG)↑
  14. For information about how to add content to the <revisionDesc> tag, see documentation on encoding revision descriptions. (TLG)↑
  15. Insert further <change> elements as the document is revised above earlier <change> elements. (TLG)↑
  16. Use the <front> element to tag paratext that comes at the beginning of a primary source text, such as a title page or dedicatory epistle. For more information, see instructions on encoding front matter. (TLG)↑
  17. We encode links to Early English Books Online (EEBO) facsimilies of each page in a primary source document. For instructions on how to do this, see documentation on encoding page breaks and linking to EEBO facsimiles (TLG)↑
  18. See documentation on encoding a title page. Note that the title page components listed in this template may not necessarily all appear in the title page you are encoding and, furthermore, may not appear in the order listed in this template. (TLG)↑
  19. Note that many titles will include only some of the following title components. (TLG)↑
  20. Whereas almost every primary source text will have a title page, only some primary source texts, usually mayoral pageant books or other play books, will have a dedicatory epistle. If the text you are encoding has a dedicatory epistle, refer to the instructions for encoding a dedicatory epistle. (TLG)↑
  21. Note that a dedicatory epistle is often many pages in length. Include a <pb> element with @facs attribute before each new page. (TLG)↑
  22. Use the <body> element to encode the text proper in a primary source document. For more information, see documentation on encoding the main text in a work. (TLG)↑
  23. Use the <head> element to tag the header on the first page. In most early modern texts, the first page contains an especially large header that lists the full title of the text. Consult the project documentation on CSS styling to reproduce the style of the inital header. (TLG)↑
  24. Use <fw type="signature"> to tag signatures at the bottom of each page. For more information, see documentation on encoding forme works, especially encoding signatures. To reproduce the style of the signatures, use the @rendition attribute to reference the <rendition> element in the <teiHeader>. For more information, see the instructions for using the <rendition> element and @rendition attribute. (TLG)↑
  25. Use <fw type="catchword"> to tag catchwords at the bottom of each page. For more information, see documentation on encoding forme works, especially encoding catchwords. To reproduce the style of the catchwords, use the @rendition attribute to reference the <rendition> element in the <teiHeader>. For more information, see the instructions for using the <rendition> element and @rendition attribute. (TLG)↑
  26. Following the initial header on the first page, subsequent headers (also known as running titles) are usually smaller, shorter, and standardized. Use <fw type="header"> to tag these running titles at the top of each page. For more information, see documentation on encoding forme works, especially encoding running titles. To reproduce the style of the catchwords, use the @rendition attribute to reference the <rendition> element in the <teiHeader>. For more information, see the instructions for using the <rendition> element and @rendition attribute. (TLG)↑
  27. Repeat for each page in the primary source text. (TLG)↑
  28. Use the <back> element to tag paratext that sometimes comes at the end of a primary source text, such as a colophon. For more information, see instructions on encoding back matter. (TLG)↑
