Text structure (ePistolarium)
From XML
The documents in the ePistolarium have the following basic structure:
<text> <body> <div xml:id="div-1" type="artifact" subtype="letter"> ... </div> <div xml:id="div-2" type="para"> ... </div> <div xml:id="div-3" type="notes"> ... </div> </body> </text>
However, a number of documents in the Pierre Bayle corpus contain both a text and its translation, encoded using the group element:
<text type="composite"> <group> <text type="original"> <body> <div xml:id="div-1" xml:lang="la" type="artifact" subtype="letter"> ... </div> </body> </text> <text type="translation"> <body> <div xml:id="div-2" xml:lang="fr" type="artifact" subtype="letter"> ... </div> </body> </text> </group> </text>
