TEI subset per manoscritti medievali

« Torna all'elenco

Inserito il 20/03/2009

The ENRICH project[1] has created a subset of the TEI for medieval manuscript
description[2].  At an upcoming meeting, one of the things we'd like
to demonstrate is that potentially many more formats than we're
planning to convert to this format could adequately be expressed in it
should need arise.  That is, that we've got a vocabulary for a
manuscript description which most manuscripts could be described in,
if desired.  Or at least, we'd like to see where what we have
*doesn't* allow for other types of (e.g. modern) manuscripts so at
least we are aware of the limitations.

If you happen to have any manuscript descriptions, in any format[3],
of any time period[4] would you be willing to let me have a
representative sample of them?  I promise to abide by any restrictions
of use you impose, will openly share my results with anyone who wants,
and such.  I'm not promising to write automatic conversions of them,
but might want to choose a couple and do manual conversions to
demonstrate that there is no loss of intellectual content.

[3] We have some MASTER and TEI P5 ones, and while more of those are
always welcome, other bizarre formats are even more appreciated.
[4] While the project is medieval in nature for this purpose we aren't
limited to medieval manuscripts.
