- Abstract:
- A low-tech introductory workshop on print-to-digital transcription for an audience interested in the creation of digital editions. Learning objectives include: recognition of the intellectual labor involved in transcription; understanding of the basic concepts of textual scholarship, especially the distinction between text and document; familiarity with the three major methods of transcription (diplomatic, linear, and timed) and what factors should be taken into consideration when choosing a strategy; and awareness of TEI as a possible tool for digital editions.
