| | The EAD header was modeled on that of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). | | | Text encoding thus makes it possible to bridge the gap between local research and insight and the discourse of the larger community, and to articulate interpretative statements in a way that is broadly intelligible. | | | Among the projects surveyed, the use of TEI DTDs in encoding texts is one of the clearest cases of the adoption of standards for a particular type of material. |

| | She is Chair of the Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing and is a member (past Chair) of the Steering Committee for the Text Encoding Initiative. | | | It is less suitable for encoding text which is to be analysed in some way, for example by a retrieval program, but it can be used to display the results of an analysis of a more richly marked up text such as one encoded in the TEI scheme. | | | We are now working on the design of an enhanced header which will provide a direct mapping to all the MARC fields which we use for cataloguing electronic texts as well as encoding, profile and revision descriptions which can be used by computer software as well as human users. |

| | The Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) Guidelines for Electronic Text Encoding and Interchange are the result of over six years' work by dozens of scholars from all over the world. | | | The work of participants in the TEI not only involved consideration of problems of text encoding that are likely to be with us for decades to come, but also required the development of a methodology - from scratch - for approaching these problems. | | | They will certainly serve as the primary basis for encoding texts in electronic form for the foreseeable future. |

| | WWP Newsletter, Fall 1997: Grappling with Text Encoding on Your Own |
| | These issues include electronic scholarly editing, philosophical discussions of the nature of text, basic concepts of SGML, and an understanding of the role of text encoding standards, including familiarity with the Text Encoding Initiative and its Guidelines for Text Encoding and Interchange. | | | With the increasing sophistication of humanities scholars about electronic texts (and of the electronic text community about humanities issues), the work published in this area is becoming more and more intellectually compelling. | | | The past few years, however, have seen not only an increase in the quantity of material published on electronic text issues, but--more importantly--a shift in focus away from the simple fact of electronic publication and its novelty, and towards a careful consideration of the problems and theoretical issues involved. |

| | The TEI Consortium, now in its second year, is an international non-profit corporation set up to maintain and develop the Text Encoding Initiative system, which has become the de facto standard for scholarly work with digital text since its first publication in 1994. | | | Fully XML-compliant, the new P4 edition of the Guidelines for Electronic Text Encoding and Interchange is intended to provide a standard format for data interchange in humanities research and to suggest principles for the encoding of texts in the same format. | | | The Guidelines defines a language for describing how texts are constructed and proposes names for their components. |

| | Ebenezer's software for TEI |
| | Many who are commited to the abstract ideals of the Text Encoding Initiative never create or use TEI-conformant texts because they can afford neither the money to buy the commercial software nor the time to learn the arcana of the free software. | | | It's not the fault of the Text Encoding Initiative, or of their sponsors, collaborators, in-laws, remote cousins, distant acquaintances, or household pets. | | | Scholars who want to use software tools to create and handle TEI-conformant text files have usually had to choose between expensive commercial products or free programs which required a lot of effort and computer sophistication to use. |

| | TEI Text Encoding in Libraries |
| | Level 1 texts are not intended to be adequate for textual analysis; they are more likely to be suited to the goals of a preservation unit or mass digitization initiative. | | | Electronic text at all levels of encoding should begin with the transcription of the first word on the first leaf of the original work. | | | The primary advantage in using the TEILite DTD at this level is that a TEI Header is attached to the text file. |

| | It is not possible to access in a friendly way from a Macintosh some of the texts which we have in CD-ROM and for which we have permission to make available through the network: examples are the (non-English) texts from the European Corpus Initiative (ECI-MC1). | | | On the other hand, we plan to use the net more and more in the future, which means that for some services run at the Text laboratory it is enough that you have a browser you are content with. | | | If there is need, we may make some of the files that came on CD-ROM available from the Textlab disks, but note that speech files take a LOT of space. |

| | Refining Our Notion of What Text Really Is. |
| | The Guidelines of the Text Encoding Initiative exhibit a characteristically ambiguous stance: although they seem to privilege this view and benefit from its influence, they do not specifically invoke, explain, or defend it. | | | In fact, we think that the continuing perplexity that surrounds the treatment of overlapping hierarchies is not due to the technical issues of encoding at all, but rather to a more fundamental deficiency in our understanding of just what we are doing when we prepare an encoded text. | | | The motivation for the view that texts are hierarchies of content objects lay initially in reflecting on these practical benefits of treating texts as if they were ordered hierarchies of content objects. |
