The School of Advanced Study, University of London, is offering a short workshop that will introduce the use of TEI (Text Encoding Initiative) XML for marking up literary and historical texts and critical editions.

Delivered online via a mix of asynchronous video tutorials and brief live sessions on 17, 19, and 21 May, we will offer basic instruction in encoding text editions in TEI using a standard XML editor.

Participants will be able to choose between a couple of models of TEI usage (including EpiDoc for ancient texts, and modern multi-genre manuscripts), have the opportunity practice the skills learned on their own texts (or some sample texts provided) and ask for help and feedback throughout the workshop as required. No prior experience in XML or coding is expected.
