Editorial Declaration
Correction
Text has been proof-read twice. All corrections and supplied text are tagged.
Normalization
The electronic text represents the edited text.
Quotation
There are no quotation marks.
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=an annal (the annalistic entries for a single year); div2=an individual entry in an annal. From div1 and div2,
canonical references can be made. All entries are numbered and zero is reserved for the chronological criteria of each annal. The n attribute of each text in this corpus carries a unique identifying number for the whole text.
Page-breaks of the printed text are marked pb="nn". The title of the text is held as
the first head element within each text. Passages of verse occurring within paragraphs are treated as embedded texts; the stanzas are marked lg and metrical lines are marked l.
Standard Values
Dates occuring in running text are tagged in ISO form.
Interpretation
Personal, role and collective names and place-names are not tagged. Neither are numbers or terms.
Canonical References
This text uses the DIV1 element to represent the Annal.
Refs: EVENT (<DIV2>)
This text uses the DIV1 element to represent the Annal.
