Encoding changes to simplify and make compliant with EpiDoc and TEI Publisher best practice recommendations

• TEI/@type with values partial for inscription parts and complete for the entire (possibly reconstructed) inscription

• TEI/@xml:id with EDEP inventory number

• digital editor (person who does data entry and revision) recorded in titleStmt as editor with @role set to digital

other editorial roles may be added in taxonomy.xml under pb-editor-roles taxonomy

<taxonomy xml:id="pb-editor-role">
    <category xml:id="digital">
        <catDesc>Digital editor</catDesc>
    </category>
</taxonomy>

drop msPart

former msIdentifier section

• move msPart/msIdentifier content (Trismegistos ID and the repository where the object is currently archived) to sourceDesc/msDesc/msIdentifier
• factor out inventory number from msPart/msIdentifier/repository to <idno type="inventory"> (to be understood as referring to the inventory number of the object in the sibling repository element)
• remove <repository>Epigraphische Datenbank Heidelberg</repository> from sourceDesc/msDesc/msIdentifier as this information is already represented in publicationStmt/authority

expected end result something like below, with 4 pieces of information: - repository where the object is currently archived (repository identified via @key with GND identifier, where available) - inventory number in this repository (idno with @type="inventory) - trismegistos number where available (idno with @type="TM") - edep identifier (idno with @type="EDEp")

  <sourceDesc>
    <msDesc>
        <msIdentifier>
            <repository key="https://d-nb.info/gnd/1055016-1">München, Staatliche
                Antikensammlung</repository>
            <idno type="inventory">NI 6979</idno>
            <idno type="TM">522587</idno>
            <idno type="EDEp">E0000030</idno>
        </msIdentifier>
    ...
    </msDesc>
  </sourceDesc>  

former history section content

relocate content (origPlace and two types of provenance) to sourceDesc/msDesc

NB origPlace must be inserted after origDate in origin

all references

relocate to sourceDesc/listBibl as nested listBibl elements with @type (just copy overything over)

msContents

relocate wholesale to sourceDesc/msDesc

layoutDesc

relocate to sourceDesc/msDesc/physDesc/objectDesc

handDesc

relocate to sourceDesc/msDesc/physDesc

supportDesc

• relocate condition to sourceDesc/msDesc/physDesc/objectDesc/supportDesc

rs

• change rs type="decoration to note with @corresp and relocate to sourceDesc/msDesc/physDesc/objectDesc/supportDesc/support (could also use ref but elsewhere note is more fitting, so for consistency let's stick with that); alternatively use EpiDoc's physDesc/decoDesc and decoNote as in EpiDoc spec

<decoDesc>
    <decoNote>Egg and dart moulding along the top of the block.</decoNote>
</decoDesc>

• change other cases of rs usage to note with @type or dedicated elements

NB rs was just wrong to use as it is design to represent references to named objects in the text; it makes no sense as an empty element or placeholder to put classifications onto. In EpiDoc spec its use is allowed when providing a general prose description, and rs elements are added over keywords or key phrases in that unstructured description for the purposes of indexing.

Languages

• remove textLang element
• add profileDesc/langUsage
• language with empty @ident serves to enter a free form note on languages

<!-- Replaces mainLang - use repeat with option to mark one as main -->
<langUsage>
    <language ident="">Additional comments or elaboration on languages</language>
    <language ana="main" ident="lat"/>
    <language ident="nxm"/>
</langUsage>

Verification

• change <note type="verification" to respStmt entries in the titleStmt

<respStmt>
    <resp when="1885">autopsy</resp>
    <persName>Helbig</persName>
</respStmt>
<respStmt>
    <resp>photo</resp>
    <persName>Kajava</persName>
</respStmt>

type of inscription (simplify msContent)

instead of using msItem with nested content, factor out verification (see above) and reduce function of msContents to info on type of inscription and corresponding free text note (summary)

<msContents class="https://www.eagle-network.eu/voc/typeins/lod/80">
    <summary>Tituli sacri; Titulus Fortunae</summary>
</msContents>

citedRange in free text fields

<citedRange> is not allowed in ab, e.g. in commentary, use seg type="citedRange" instead, with @subtype where unit specification is required, e.g. <seg type="citedRange" subtype="page">252</seg>

TODO

partials

• <TEI type="partial" id="EDEP-007-a" corresp="EDEP-007">
• Use EDEP ID E0000028 as example

OTHER CHANGES to the form

• Drop "transmission", use type on listBibl to denote bibliographic type. By default this includes: previous editions and bibliography. For EDEp additionally images and transmittions (in same order as currently)

• Repository:

  • 'GND Key' in 'Repository Key'
  • additionally: specify inventary ID in additional field
  • checkbox means: the object is lost

• Digital images should be a separate block
