In this hands-on workshop, we will go through the main functionalities of TEI Publisher in order to produce digital scholarly editions from TEI-encoded files. TEI Publisher was initially conceived as a tool to bridge the gap between TEI-XML source files and their publication, but has evolved into a multi-purpose tool that assists editors during the complete digital editing workflow.
The cornerstone of TEI Publisher is the implementation of the TEI Processing model, which descriptively defines how the different elements of a TEI document should be presented for publication. In this workshop we will see how through the TEI Processing model and coherent defaults, we can build sophisticated editions in record time.
TEI Publisher is free and open source software whose development is supported and coordinated by the international non-profit society e-editiones.
Participants are encouraged to bring their own laptops. The previous installation of eXist-DB and TEI Publisher is recommended, but not mandatory.
