About this Event
EpiDoc is the de facto standard for the encoding of ancient epigraphic (including ogham) and papyrological editions in TEI XML for online publication and interchange (epidoc.stoa.org). In this two-day, hands-on training workshop at the University of Glasgow (9–10 December), we will introduce the encoding of ancient and medieval texts in XML, and sources of information and support on EpiDoc. No technical knowledge is required, but participants are expected to be broadly familiar with the transcription conventions for inscriptions or papyri (e.g. the Leiden Conventions), and either Greek, Latin, Irish/Gaelic or the ancient language of their epigraphic or papyrological tradition.
The workshop will involve asynchronous training materials and exercises that you should watch in advance.
Workshop times and dates:
Tuesday 9 December 10:00AM-17:PM
Wednesday 10 december 10:00AM-17:00PM
Lunch, coffee, and snacks will be provided on both days.
Travel expenses of up to £20 per day will be covered.
The workshop will be held in person; however, hybrid participation can be accommodated on the second day.
