Encoding Description | |
Building a corpus of historical non-fiction texts encoded at a reading level. TEI encoding is based on the UW-Madison Libraries Guidelines for Markup of Electronic Texts at the Reading Level (Version 2.0: http://uwdcc.library.wisc.edu/resources/etext/TEIGuidelines.shtml), with the addition of <sic> elements. No corrections have been made to the source text. All quotation marks have been retained. No normalization has been performed on the source text. End-of-line hyphens have been eliminated, except for words normally containing a hyphen at that point. Where hyphenated words occur at the end of a page, the page break element has been moved to the end of the recombined word. Abbreviations have not been expanded. | |
