Menota header

<teiHeader xml:lang="eng">

The element <teiHeader> states that the header follows the recommendations of the Text Encoding Initiative. The attribute xml:lang specifies the language of the header; in this case English. The language of the source is specified below in <msContents>. A list of language abbreviations is located in ISO 639-2.

<fileDesc>

The file description is a mandatory part of the header and must include information on the title (<titleStmt>), publication (<publicationStmt>) and source (<sourceDescr>), cf. TEI P5 ch. 5.2.

<titleStmt>

<title>Holm perg 6 fol (Barlaams ok Josaphats saga): an electronic edition</title>

The title of the work. It should specify the primary source (manuscript) on which the transcription is based, and, where applicable, the title of the work. We recommend that the title states that the present text is an electronic edition.

Note that manuscript sigla are given according to various standards, so that “Holm perg 6 fol” in many contexts is given as “Sth. perg. 6 fol.” We recommend using the sigla in the index volume of Ordbog over det norrøne prosasprog (also accessible on the ONP's web page).

The TEI Guidelines also recommends that the element <author> is included in the <titleStmt> (cf. TEI P5 ch. 5.6). Since almost all Medieval Nordic texts are anonymous we believe this element is not required.

<respStmt>

<editionStmt>

The <editionStmt> should be used to specify whether the present text is a new or a revised edition of the electronic text as described in the title above.

<p>First draft, <date value="2004-02-01">1 February 2004</date></p>

Here, “edition” means roughly the same as “version”. Date may be given as year (2004), or year and month (2004-02), or year, month and day (2004-02-01).

</editionStmt>

<publicationStmt>

<distributor>Medieval Nordic Text Archive</distributor>

The body (publisher, archive) which has made the text available.

<idno type="Menota">Ms. 1</idno>

A unique identification of the text. Attribute value: Menota. Element content: acquisition number, beginning with ms. 1. Note that this information will be supplied by Menota, if the text is being deposited in this archive.

<date value="2004-03-01">1 March 2004</date>

The date of publication in the archive. Date format as in <editionStmt> above.

Copyright statement. Attribute values (according to TEI P5 ch. 5.2.4 (Specifications, Element: availability): free, restricted, unknown. Until further notice, we recommend that the status is described as exemplified here.

</publicationStmt>

<sourceDesc>

The <sourceDesc> is a mandatory part of the header (cf. TEI P5 ch. 5.2.7). As of TEI P5, this part of the header includes the recommendations of the MASTER project, notably in the element <msDescription>.

<p>This text has been ...</p>

Optional information on the background of the text.

<msDescription>

<msIdentifier>

<country reg="SE">Sweden</country>

The country in which the manuscript is kept. Attribute values: DK (Denmark), IS (Iceland), NO (Norway), SE (Sweden). Except for the attribute value the element may be empty. The values given here are conformant with ISO 3166.

<settlement>Stockholm</settlement>

The place in which the manuscript is kept.

<repository>Kungliga Biblioteket</repository>

The manuscript collection or institution, preferably with its official name.

<idno>Holm perg 6 fol</idno>

The manuscript signature. We recommend that signatures are given according to the practice in the index volume of Ordbog over det norrøne prosasprog (also accessible on the ONP's web page).

<altName></altName>

Alternative name, often found for major manuscripts. This particular manuscript has no alternative name, so the element is left empty. For an example of an alternative name, see the header of AM 242 fol (Codex Wormianus) below.

</msIdentifier>

<msContents>

<msItem n="1">

<locus from="1r" to="102v">ff. 1r–102v (pp. 1–204)</locus>
<title>Barlaams ok Josaphats saga</title>
<title type="abbreviated">Barl</title>
<textLang langKey="onw">Old Norwegian</textLang>

</msItem>

This is where the structure of the source is described. For a single-text source this is done with a single <msItem> element. Within this element, the locus of the text is specified (in this case, the whole manuscript), the title and the language.

Some manuscripts are usually referred to with folio numbers (e.g. fol. 2r), other with page numbers (e.g. p. 3). We recommend that wherever possible, folio numbers are given as attributes to the <locus> element, while the contents may be folio numbers, page numbers, or both, depending on common usage for the manuscript in question.

In many contexts, Old Norse works are referred to with abbreviations, e.g. “Nj” for Njáls saga. A complete list is given in the index volume of Ordbog over det norrøne prosasprog (also accessible on the ONP's web page). We recommend giving this kind of abbreviation as an additional <title> element here.

The <textLang> element specifies the language of the source using the three-letter abbreviations of ISO 639-2. This list may be supplied with additional abbreviations (for example “onw” used here) which must be declared in <profileDesc> below. Please note that this usage is not ISO conformant.

</msContents>

<physDesc>

The physical description of the primary source.

<objectDesc form="codex">

The object description should specify whether the primary source is a manuscript (codex), a charter (diploma) or a fragment, partial leaf or cutting.

<supportDesc>

<support>
<p><material>Parchment</material>, but with five younger <material>paper</material> leaves added; two at the front (the last being blank) and three at the back.

<foliation><p>The manuscript is paginated on the recto pages of the parchment leaves, 1–204.</p></foliation>

</supportDesc>

The support description specifies the material (parchment, paper) of the source, the extent and size (measured in millimeters), and the foliation (whether it is paginated and/or foliated).

</objectDesc>

</physDesc>

<history>

<origin><p>Written in <origPlace>Eastern Norway</origPlace> <origDate notBefore="1250" notAfter="1300">c. 1275</origDate>.</p></origin>

The provenance of the source is specified in the <origPlace> element, and the date in the <origDate> element. Most medieval sources (except charters) can not be dated precisely, and are usually dated to quarters, halves or whole centuries. The attributes notBefore and notAfter should be used to indicate this time span.

Approximate dates, e.g. “ca. 1275”, may be given with a time span of 50 years in each direction, i.e. “notBefore 1225” and “notAfter 1325”, unless a more presise range can be given. In this case, the text was probably translated from Latin into Old Norwegian around 1250, so this is an obvious terminus post quem for the present manuscript.

</history>

</msDescription>

</sourceDesc>

</fileDesc>

<encodingDesc>

The <encodingDesc> is an optional part of the header, but we recommend that it contains information on the standard of encoding and level of quality. Cf. TEI P5 ch. 5.3.

<projectDesc>

<p>This manuscript text has been encoded according to the standard set out in <title>The Menota handbook</title> (version 1.1), at <ref target="http://www.aksis.uib.no/menota/guidelines"> http://www.aksis.uib.no/menota/guidelines</ref> as of <date>2004-05-05</date>.</p>

Not all texts in the archive may confirm wholly to the Menota standard. Those that do should say so explicitly.

<editorialDecl>

<correction status="high"><p>This text was proofread by Magnus Rindal and colleagues before the publication of the printed version in 1981. It is unlikely that it contains any significant number of errors. However, it can not be ruled out that the subsequent conversion of the file may have introduced some systemic errors.</p></correction>

Level of quality control. Attribute values (according to TEI): high, medium, low, unknown. Except for the attribute value the element may be empty. – TEI P5 ch. 5.3.3 (Specifications, Element: correction) has these definitions:

high: the text has been thoroughly checked and proofread
medium: the text has been checked at least once
low: the text has not been checked
unknown: the correction status of the text is unknown

</editorialDecl>

</encodingDesc>

<profileDesc>

The <profileDescription> is an optional part of the header. We recommend that it is used to specify the number of hands in the source (if more than one). It should also be used to list language names outside the list in ISO 639-2.

<langUsage>

<language ident="oda">Old Danish</language>
<language ident="oic">Old Icelandic</language>
<language ident="onw">Old Norwegian</language>
<language ident="osw">Old Swedish</language>
<language ident="oic-onw">Old Icelandic with Old Norwegian traits</language>
<language ident="onw-oic">Old Norwegian with Old Icelandic traits</language>

ISO 639-2 contains a list of three-letter abbreviations of language names. In addition to the modern languages dan (Danish), ice or isl (Icelandic), nor (Norwegian) and swe (Swedish), there is only one abbreviation for Medieval Nordic, sc. non (Old Norse, i.e. Old Icelandic and/or Old Norwegian). Since Old Norse is a problematic term and the abbreviation non is idiosyncratic, we recommend introducing the values oda (Old Danish), oic (Old Icelandic), onw (Old Norwegian), osw (Old Swedish). In cases of uncertainty, a hyphen may be used, e.g. oic-onw for a manuscript which is either Old Iceland or Old Norwegian (but most probably Old Icelandic), onw-oic the other way round, etc. Please note that this usage is not ISO conformant.

For Latin we recommend the abbreviation lat (as in ISO 639-2).

</langUsage>

<handList>

The <handList> element specifies the number of hands recognised in the encoding of the source.

<hand xml:id="h1"/>
<hand xml:id="h2"/>

<revisionDesc>

The <revisionDesc> is an optional part of the header, but it is essential that all changes to the file are recorded, especially those that are added by other people than the transcriber/editor.

The list of changes usually has the most recent changes at the top.

<text xml:lang="onw">

The source text is placed within the <text> element. The attribute xml:lang specifies the language of the text (cp. <profileDesc> above).

This is where the structure of the source is described as a list of items, using the <msItem> element. Note that these elements can nest, so that the first item, n=1, contains three sub-items, 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3, etc.

Each item contains a reference to its place, <locus>, in the manuscript, and its title, <title>. Some manuscripts are usually referred to with folio numbers (e.g. fol. 2r), other with page numbers (e.g. p. 3). We recommend that wherever possible, folio numbers are given as attributes to the <locus> element, while the contents may be folio numbers, page numbers, or both, depending on common usage for the manuscript in question.

In many contexts, Old Norse works are referred to with abbreviations, e.g. “Nj” for Njáls saga. A complete list is given in the index volume of Ordbog over det norrøne prosasprog (also accessible on the ONP's web page). We recommend giving this kind of abbreviation as an additional <title> element here.

The <textLang> element specifies the language of the source using the three-letter abbreviations of ISO 639-2. This list may be supplied with additional abbreviations (for example "oic" used here) which must be declared in <profileDesc> below. Please note that this usage is not ISO conformant.

ISO 639-2 contains a list of three-letter abbreviations of language names. In addition to the modern languages dan (Danish), ice or isl (Icelandic), nor (Norwegian) and swe (Swedish), there is only one abbreviation for Medieval Nordic, sc. non (Old Norse, i.e. Old Icelandic and/or Old Norwegian). Since Old Norse is a problematic term and the abbreviation non is idiosyncratic, we recommend introducing the values oda (Old Danish), oic (Old Icelandic), onw (Old Norwegian), osw (Old Swedish). In cases of uncertainty, a hyphen may be used, e.g. oic-onw for a manuscript which is either Old Iceland or Old Norwegian (but most probably Old Icelandic), onw-oic the other way round, etc. Please note that this usage is not ISO conformant.

For Latin we recommend the abbreviation lat (as in ISO 639-2).
