GITenberg TEI sample header

This is an incomplete TEI header at based on http://eco.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.07539/7?r=0&s=1 / http://www.pgdp.net/c/project.php?id=projectID3ff5e30465b91 / http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/48562

Much of the content is still based on the samples in the TEI standard.

About the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI)

The Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) is a community of practice in the area now known as textual digital humanities. Since 1994 the primary output of the TEI has been the TEI/XML guidelines, a standard for the interchange of textual data. A main focii of the TEI is the TEI-L mailing list; the TEI is also on github and docker, a communal repository called TAPAS and an academic journal, the jTEI.

TEI/XML can be thought of as a sibling of HTML (they're approximately the same age, depending on how you measure it) which evolved with a focus on defined textual semantics rather than defined display semantics. TEI by example is a good introduction to TEI/XML. The Text Encoding Initiative Wikipedia article contains some short examples. The TEI/XML standard is used by content-based projects such as the British National Corpus, the Perseus Project, the Women Writers Project, the Oxford Text Archive, the Digital Tripitaka and SARIT, and tool-based projects such as CorrespSearch,
EpiDoc, Anthologize, Versioning Machine, and many more diverse projects.
