The Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) is the de facto standard for digitizing and enriching textual materials and offers a robust, multi-lingual vocabulary for describing, analyzing, preserving, and publishing “texts” across various genres: poems, drama, manuscripts, tombstones, posters, audio recordings, music videos, et cetera.

 

This workshop will serve as an introduction to the TEI as an encoding language, outlining how participants can use the TEI for creating their own digital editions. No prior experience with markup language, text encoding, or the digital humanities necessary.
