 | | Basics of the TEI: origins and goals of the TEI, overall organization of the TEI encoding scheme, basic structural notions of the TEI DTD and the pizza model: the base, additional, and core tag sets, and how they may be extended, modified, and documented; group tagging of the sample document. |
 | | It takes the form of a substantial reference manual, documenting a modular and extensible SGML document type definition (DTD), which can be used to describe electronic encodings of all kinds of texts, of all times and in all languages. |
 | | Computer-aided research now crosses many political, linguistics, temporal, and disciplinary boundaries; the TEI Guidelines have been designed to be applied to texts in any language, from any period, in any genre, encoded for research of any kind. |
