Sampling Declaration

The present text represents the introduction, on pp. 249–255, and Latin text, on odd pages 255–283. The Irish text, edited from RIA MS 23 N 16, is available in a separate file, G600019.

Editorial Declaration

Correction

Text has been checked and proofread twice.

Normalization

The electronic text represents the edited text. U and V have been standardized according to their modern phonetic values. Vowel ligatures have been rendered as separate vowels; names of persons and books have been capitalized at CELT. Where the hardcopy uses italics to denote expansions in the electronic text ex tags are used instead. The text presented here comprises only a small part of Lanfranc's Chirurgia Magna.

Hyphenation

Soft hyphens at line end are silently removed. Words containing a hard or soft hyphen crossing a page-break, line-break, or a folio-break have been placed on the line on which they start.

Segmentation

div0=the whole text; div1=the Tractatus; div2=the Doctrina; div3=the Capitulum. Paragraphs are numbered in line with the printed edition, page-breaks are marked pb n=""/; milestones are marked mls unit="edition folio and column" n="".

Standard Values

Dates are standardized in the ISO form yyyy-mm-dd. No dates are given in the extract of the treatise presented here.

Canonical References

This text uses the DIV3 element to represent the Capitulum.
