Encoding

Project Description

CELT: Corpus of Electronic Texts

Sampling Declaration

All editorial preface, introduction, notes, glossary and index have been omitted. Editorial corrigenda are integrated into the electronic edition. The restored editor's text is rendered exactly and all MS readings are recorded in corr sic=""

Editorial Declaration

Correction

Text has been thoroughly checked and proof-read. All corrections and supplied text are tagged.

Normalization

The printed text is not a diplomatic. Only what were considered important MS readings are given by the FS and only major editorial changes are recorded by FS. Length marks are supplied by FS and marks of lenition in the MS are sometimes suppressed by him. FS substitutes 'Fingen' for MS 'Fergne': this has been retained in the electronic edition, but the correct quantity of the first vowel in 'Fingen', namely 'Fíngen' has been restored throughout. The electronic text represents the edited text. The following emendations are suggested by DÓC but not included in the electronic text: for "áilldem" read "áildem" (1, 3); for "do aidchi" read "'d adaig" (1); for "ro-proindig" read "ro-proind" (1); for "do-rónad" read "do-rigni" (10).

Quotation

Quotation marks are rendered q.

Hyphenation

Soft hyphens are silently removed. When a hyphenated word (hard or soft) crosses a page-break, the page-break is marked after the completion of the hyphenated word.

Segmentation

div0=the text; div1=the editorially numbered sections of the text. Page-breaks are marked using pb.

Interpretation

Names of persons (given names), groups (dynasties, peoples etc.), places are tagged. Names of professions are tagged.

Canonical References

This text uses the DIV1 element to represent the section.
