En este capítulo se presenta un modelo general para la anotación multinivel de corpora de texto literario. Por multinivel se hace referencia a la combinación, en un mismo corpus, de información de diferentes niveles de descripción lingüística o literaria, desde datos relacionados con palabras o sílabas, hasta cuestiones temáticas, textuales o pragmáticas. El objetivo final de un corpus de estas características es fijar un posible análisis literario, por lo que se considera como una edición digital enriquecida. Se defienden cuatro características que un corpus de texto literario debe cumplir: interoperabilidad, perspectivismo, unidad y claridad/sencillez. Se da cuenta de los principales problemas de formalización en un corpus multinivel de este tipo: la combinación de diferentes formalismos de representación y, en el caso de XML, el problema de un anidamiento incorrecto. Finalmente se propone un modelo para un corpus de poesía del Siglo de Oro., This paper presents a general model for the multilevel annotation of a literary corpus. Multilevel refers to the combination of information from different linguistic or literary levels in the same corpus: from word related data to thematic, textual or pragmatic questions. The objective is to fix a possible literary analysis. To be considered an enriched digital edition, an annotated corpus must meet four characteristics: interoperability, perspectivism, unity and clarity/simplicity. The main formalization problems are discussed: the combination of different representation formalisms and, in the case of XML, the improper nesting. Finally, a model for a corpus of poetry from the Spanish Golden-Age is proposed.

The current scene of Digital Scholarly Editions, particularly those concerning modern manuscripts, registers a trend towards documentary and diplomatic editions. This “bédierian” tendence leads to editions focused mainly on the diplomatic transcription of the source, lacking in consideration about the genetic process. Lying under this situation we could figure out the existence of digital tools and languages more adequate to this documentary approach. In addition to that, this article is aimed at showing the concrete problems in representing the diachronic elaboration of the text in a digital form, through methodological considerations and examples of realisation. Despite the widespread trend and the difficulty in choosing a different way, it seems possible to reflect on genetic digital editions from an optimistic perspective. In fact, these editions are not only necessary, at least for certain textual situations, but also feasible, as shown by some ongoing projects and experiments (Saba 2021, VaSto 2022 and Il Conte di Carmagnola), presented at the end of the contribution.

This paper reviews the preparatory and operational stages that led to the development of the digital scientific edition of 57 musical dramas staged in the Republic of Lucca between 1636 and 1705 to celebrate an important political event. This case study prompts a reflection on the relationship between digital humanities and opera theater by providing a detailed state of the art: the increased interest in databases and the significant number of amateurs of the genre explain both the detected distance from the textual data and the poor online availability of philologically curated libretti. Instead, the present edition focuses on the content of the operas in terms of textual typologies, use of sources and characters and, in particular, political ideas. In describing the XML-TEI encoding scheme, this paper aims to show interpretive close reading can enhance the analysis of certain concepts, political in this case, through markup. Although acknowledging some limitations, such as the risk of overlapping and the lack of unambiguous IDs, the results highlight a new way of conceiving the commentary of digital editions which provides scholars with the possibility of using digital tools to annotate and visualize exegetical reading.

The Atti Chiari project, collecting the first large Italian corpus of judicial acts, presents strict legal requirements as well as many peculiarities in terms of language and content; to meet them, a number of processes and tools have been designed and implemented. The first issue is the requirement to remove any personal data from the documents, without however destroying their linguistic form, nor compromising their readability. To this end, a pseudonymisation procedure has been created based on a preliminary annotation stage, which adds information right in order to remove it in different ways, according to different purposes (linguistic analysis, legal analysis, etc.). At the same time, this light annotation provides data useful not only for pseudonymization, but also for the conversion of documents, from their original presentational format into a semantic one based on TEI. Once documents have been prepared in this way, they are then centralized in a corpus, ready to be indexed for linguistic research. Given the multiple search criteria that must be combined, whatever their origin and model, a new type of search engine, designed primarily in the philological field, has been used here to obtain the required openness and granularity of metadata.

The manuscript The Hague, Koninklijke Bibliotheek, 75 H 57 is a one-column paper manuscript, which was probably made in Holland and, based on watermark research, must be dated around 1442. The content includes thirteen rhymed texts very different in nature and content. The previous editor of the text collection, Eelco Verwijs, characterized it as a whole with the title Van vrouwen ende van minne (Of women and love), but this designation only covers part of the contents. Indeed, some texts deal with courtly love and manners, others, on the other hand, are notable for comical anecdotes or sharp satire, such as a mockery of peasants and the quasi-by-laws for a guild of unsocials called the Blauwe Schuit (Blue Barge). We also find texts with a didactic tendency, and a cluster of rhyming maxims. The language differs from text to text. In addition to Dutch, a certain German coloring also regularly occurs, to varying degrees per text. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, this collection of texts was found as loose quires in the archives of the Egmond monastery by former state archivist Van Wijn. In 1821 he had it bound at his own expense. The manuscript is written in a littera cursiva by two collaborating copyists, A (f. 1r1-f. 27r1) and B (f. 27r2-f. 67v20). It consists of 6 quires, of which the first quire, originally a quintern, has lost its first leaf. Of the other quires, all sexterns, the last quire is missing the outer double leaf. In addition to these defects, the manuscript has numerous textual faults. Apart from obvious text corruption, whole sections are missing at the beginning or end of some texts. It is remarkable that copyist A, who in all likelihood was responsible for the final editing, signaled the breaking off of a text in several places by writing down closing formula’s like ‘Amen dico vobis’, ‘Amen sit laus’ or similar words. It is also curious that these places often coincide with the end of a quire. On the basis of these and ot

The Vanden Stock Manuscript (Brussels, KBR, II 116) is a small fifteenth-century manuscript counting 39 leaves made of paper with eight different watermarks, and can be divided in three codicological units, all written by the same scribe in an idiosyncratic hand. An examination of this hand and its corrections in the margins suggests that all units were copied for private use. The first unit (f. 1-22) – which lacks the first and eighth leaves of the first quire, and therefore the beginning of the first text – contains three clusters of texts: first three lists (questions and answers, advice on table manners and an excerpt from Seghelijn van Jherusalem); second three texts on the final judgement (memento mori) and the apocalyptic events surrounding it (a.o. an excerpt from Lucidarius); third several groups of sayings in which religious topics are present but not the main focus. Another text about the finality of life (Van tijtverlies) closes this unit. The second unit (one bifolio: f. 23-24) contains another group of sayings. The third unit (f. 25-37) contains a verse translation of the seven penitentiary psalms. Only after it was decided that the three units should be bound together, the final bifolio (f. 38-39), containing a single text, was added to the codex. This text, a so-called abc-darium, is the only prescriptive text in the codex, stressing its overall function: a collection of texts containing useful information concerning everyday life and the afterlife. The name giver of this codex, Olivier vanden Stock, was a sixteenth-century owner of the manuscript who wrote his name in de lower margin of f. 5r.

The paper codex handschrift-Serrure (Brussels KBR, II 144) codicologically and substantively consists of a number of parts: the first part (f. 1r–165v) is written by the hands A, B and C; the hands w, x, y and z each added a small text. The second part (f. 166r–169v) was copied by hand D. All hands are from the sixteenth century, only hands y and z are from the seventeenth century. Most of the codex is by hand A (f. 1r–113v), who possibly wrote around 1555 in the Dutch-German border area between Sittard, Maastricht and Aachen. The copyist used written sources for his collection of texts; he partly determined the systematic division of the text groups and chose clearly contemporary secular and spiritual texts with themes such as love and friendship, honor and happiness, wealth and poverty, death and life. Some Latin inscriptions and pseudo-Latin texts could indicate student use. The part of hand A mainly contains rhymed sayings and epigrams, sacred and secular songs, proverbs, love questions with answers, cisioiani, farcical sermons and parodies of prescriptions. Many texts are intended to be didactic or moralistic. After the texts of hand A a few leaves were originally left blank (f. 114r–121r). Then hand B (f. 121v–148r) wrote a large number of High German riddles, which are also known from the Straßburger Rätselbuch. After that hand C wrote on the leaves left blank (f. 114r–120r) love songs and spells. This hand C also wrote a collection of prescriptions after the riddles of hand B (f. 149v–165v). Finally hand D (f. 166r–169v) wrote a smaller collection of prescriptions for horses. It is unclear if this last quire was added to the codex when it was bound. Hands B, C and D all wrote at the end of the sixteenth century in a Dutch-German border dialect that can be found somewhat more northerly than the dialect of hand A.

The Heber-Serrure manuscript (Ghent, University Library, Ms. 1374) is a miscellany containing Middle Dutch rhyming texts, mostly ethical and didactic in content. Although the manuscript is not explicitly dated or localized, there is ample reason to assume that the codex was compiled near the end of the fourteenth century in the Carthusian monastery of Herne (about 18 miles southwest of Brussels). For a variety of reasons, this codex deserves our attention (and a new, modern edition), as it continues to fascinate both philologists and book historians. Until now, the Heber-Serrure manuscript has been primarily valued because of the many unique texts which it contains, including sizable excerpts from the Spiegel historiael (the Middle Dutch adaption of Vincent of Beauvais’ Speculum historiale) as well as a number of rare strophic poems by Jacob van Maerlant, but also the Rinclus. All of these works have already been edited in the past, based on the Heber-Serrure codex. These historic editions, however, were often heavily critical in orientation and appeared in isolation from one another, thus hindering our view on the joint survival of these works, as well as the original context in which this book was produced and meant to function. The present diplomatic edition aims to correct this situation. From the point of book history too, the Heber-Serrure manuscript present us with a remarkable object for scholarly study: the manuscript only contains rhyming texts, but these have been copied as continuous prose, most likely to save space (and time). Moreover, the available evidence suggests that the text collection wasn’t copied from a prior witness: in this manuscript, we can almost literally peak over the scribe’s shoulder, because we are dealing with a ‘growth miscellany’ that was composed in distinct phases, even though these phases were not meticulously planned beforehand. The single scribe of the book also acted as the book’s compiler, thus enabling pr

The MVN project (the Dutch abbreviation stands for Medieval Miscellanies from the Low Countries) is finalizing the online publication of a number of manuscripts. These manuscripts will be accessible both by page and by text. The text display itself can be either page-oriented, mimicking the layout on the folium, or text-oriented, based on metrical (verse) lines. Manuscript lines and verse lines are independently numbered. In my talk I will discuss, based on a number of experiments, how this functionality can be replicated in TEI Publisher. TEI Publisher is a successful and low-entry open source publication environment for TEI documents. It is hoped the example will lower the barriers for other projects attempting similar functionality.

The emergence of the field of transgenerational epigenetics inheritance (TEI) has profoundly reshaped our understanding of the relationships between environment, soma, and germ cells as well as of heredity. TEI refers to the changes in chromatin state, gene expression, and/or phenotypes that are transmitted across several generations without involving changes to the DNA sequences. TEI has direct connections with, and feeds from, the fields of molecular biology, genetics, developmental biology, and reproductive biology, among others. However, the expansion of TEI-related research, has profoundly reshaped boundaries within each field and often led to the erosion of theories and concepts considered as tenets of biology. We first explore how the molecularization of biology has shifted the definition of epigenetics to include the notion of heredity and how epigenetics has refined our understanding of the central dogma of biology. The demonstrated transfer of environmental information from soma to germ cell through extracellular vesicles and subsequent alteration of health outcomes in offspring has put a definite end to the long-held principle of the Weismann barrier. TEI has also simultaneously led to the revival of the inheritance of acquired characteristics while further eroding the concept of an epigenetic "blank slate" in mammals. Using an historical framework, and via the exploration of central studies in the field, in this perspective article, we will draw a compelling argument for the revolutionary aspect of TEI in biology.

Notes written by an author in the margins of his books give the opportunity to reconstruct his profile and the history of his works. Nevertheless, in making the critical edition of notes we have to face important difficulties, which digital philology can solve. The issue is discussed by analysing the edition of Giorgio Bassani’s notes, that is double: the printed edition is accompanied by the digital one, of which we present the prototype, that reproduces marginalia marked by Bassani in the book La scuola dell’uomo by Guido Calogero (1939).

This paper approaches dictionaries as lexical resources with functions for target audiences, which benefit from a strictly defined data format, which means less work and improved interchangeability. Code generation in a reliable automated build pr ocess provides validation and documentation. Stable services provide functions that can be realized within the data format. The software canrun straight away with a complete docker setup. In this way, creating a dictionary becomes primarily a matter of ed iting or converting data, for instance with an XML editor that supports editors by means of generated validation and documentation.

What is the meaning of the authors’ interventions on their own texts? Variants Mining aims to answer this question by gaining empirical insight into creative thinking. The research focuses on pre-established categories of authorial variants to provide scholars with statistics of corrections, automatically computed starting from either the PDF document or the TEI encoding of the referring critical edition of the text. Finally, the output is made easily understandable thanks to a specifically tailored data visualization tool. This innovative comparative analysis on the correction modalities would allow to provide new philological readings that shed light on the creative process of different authors and assess if these interventions can be read as recurring patterns. Therefore, this methodology promotes a more conscious insight on the historical evolution of the authorial thought through a straightforward representation. A pilot analysis will focus on the case studies of Giacomo Leopardi’s Canti and Alessandro Manzoni’s I promessi sposi to understand the difference not only between the two key authors of Italian Romanticism, but also between poetry and prose. &nbsp

Since the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), researchers have asked how intelligent computing systems could interact with and relate to their users and their surroundings, leading to debates around issues of biased AI systems, ML black-box, user trust, user’s perception of control over the system, and system’s transparency, to name a few. All of these issues are related to how humans interact with AI or ML systems, through an interface which uses different interaction modalities. Prior studies address these issues from a variety of perspectives, spanning from understanding and framing the problems through ethics and Science and Technology Studies (STS) perspectives to finding effective technical solutions to the problems. But what is shared among almost all those efforts is an assumption that if systems can explain the how and why of their predictions, people will have a better perception of control and therefore will trust such systems more, and even can correct their shortcomings. This research field has been called Explainable AI (XAI). In this studio, we take stock on prior efforts in this area; however, we focus on using Tangible and Embodied Interaction (TEI) as an interaction modality for understanding ML. We note that the affordances of physical forms and their behaviors potentially can not only contribute to the explainability of ML systems, but also can contribute to an open environment for criticism. This studio seeks to both critique explainable ML terminology and to map the opportunities that TEI can offer to the HCI for designing more sustainable, graspable and just intelligent systems., QC 20210526

Software library supporting development of applications using TEI and universal dependencies based linguistic annotations

Teoria e forme del testo digitale (Carocci, 2019) edited by Michelangelo Zaccarello collects a translation of ten essays by the most influential authors on the theme of digital textuality, followed by an afterword by H. Wayne Storey. The introduction to Zaccarello's book examines the problems arising from the advent of the new digital medium, which will be discussed in the following pages; they are not only linked to the theme of representation and text encoding, but also affect the world of born digital literature and copyright, in an agile journey to rediscover the importance of philology.

Software library supporting development of applications using TEI and universal dependencies based linguistic annotations

Environmental pollution causes approx. 10% of human diseases, and some develop in the progeny because of parental exposure. Effects passed on to subsequent generations may be a consequence of genetic mutations, or of inherited changes in epigenetic patterns. Epigenetics is the study of mitotically or meiotically heritable changes in gene function that cannot be explained by changes in the DNA sequence. Several chemicals have been suggested to induce epigenetic dysregulation leading to multigenerational and transgenerational effects, i.e. effects that can be observed in completely unexposed generations. However, mechanisms underlying the inheritance of epigenetic changes and their implication in phenotypic adversities are complex and not well-understood. The overall aim of this thesis was to study adverse effects and underlying molecular changes in several generations of zebrafish after parental exposure to selected industrial chemicals. To this end, molecular (lipidomic, transcriptomic, epigenomic) and behavioral analyses were performed. Zebrafish is an acknowledged model for vertebrates in toxicology and biomedicine; as such, the findings can be relevant to many organisms including human. The results from this thesis showed that different types of chemicals, polychlorinated biphenyls, polybromodiphenyl ethers, and permethrin, induced transgenerational effects in concentrations relevant to environmental or human exposures. Impact on anxiety and locomotor activity of zebrafish was observed over several generations. Gene expression and epigenetic (DNA methylation) alterations were partly inherited and suggest stable alteration of specific functions such as glutamatergic/GABAergic neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity. Finally, the findings shed light on experimental limitations and research perspectives, which we expect will contribute to the design of future studies on epigenetically inherited effects of any environmental stress.

Gene expression and epigenetic (DNA methylation) alterations were partly inherited and suggest stable alteration of specific functions such as glutamatergic/GABAergic neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity. Finally, the findings shed light on experimental limitations and research perspectives, which we expect will contribute to the design of future studies on epigenetically inherited effects of any environmental stress.

Digital Scholarly Editions (DSE) are a powerful tool for disseminating cultural heritage. As long as Semantic Web technologies become a de facto standard for disseminating cultural heritage data, DSE are a missing bit that must be integrated in the LOD Cloud. Despite a number of standards are in place for exchanging data about encoded texts (XML/TEI, noSQL database, RESTful API), a number of key elements are missing, namely: (1) a comprehensive workflow for publishing DSE as knowledge graphs, (2) data models for identifying concepts and relationships characterising DSE, and (3) a cost-benefit analysis of the usage of such technologies. In this paper we present the proof-of-concept DSE of Paolo Bufalini's notebook so as to address, discuss, and evaluate aforementioned issues.

In this paper we would like to present some ideas on the use of the archival standards in various contexts that exemplify the complexity of such standards and provide users with innovative ways to handle EAD content. Our main idea is that researchers, Cultural heritage institutions, archival portals and standards maintenance bodies could greatly benefit from a multiscale modelling of archival data, but also from multiscale representations and documentations. A first step is on the way to being cleared in the domain of the management of heterogeneous archival sources in one single environment, namely a federated portal, like in EHRI. We built a methodology based on a specification and customisation method inspired from the long lasting experience of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) community. In the TEI framework, one has the possibility of defining project-specific sub-sets or extensions of the TEI guidelines while maintaining both the technical (XML schemas) and editorial (documentation) specification within a single framework. Using the same framework for EAD data allows us to express precise content-oriented rules combined with some interesting possibilities of integrating the human readable documentation in the validation process.

This paper describes the work process of digital edition and the markup of categories of analysis of paratexts contained in the works of female Spanish writers of the Early Modern Age, from the first recorded printings to works of the late eighteenth century. The initial part of this work is devoted to the analysis of the research methodology used by the BIESES project research team to define the categories of analysis that describe female writing of this period, considering the concepts of author, work, and receiver. In the second part, the phases of the digital edition work of the paratextual corpus, TEI markup, and the design of a search engine to recover these categories of analysis are described. The results of this research project consist of a virtual work environment that offers the research community open access, analysis tools, texts, and a methodological proposal for literary analysis in the digital humanities., Este artículo explica el proceso de trabajo de edición digital y marcado de categorías de análisis de los paratextos contenidos en obras de escritoras españolas de la primera edad moderna, desde los primeros impresos conservados hasta los años finales del siglo XVIII. Una primera parte de este trabajo se dedica a analizar la metodología de investigación que el equipo de investigación del Proyecto BIESES ha llevado a cabo para definir las categorías de análisis que explican la escritura femenina de este período, en relación a los conceptos de autora, obra y receptor. En la segunda parte se da cuenta de las fases de trabajo de edición digital del corpus paratextual, marcado en TEI y el diseño de un buscador que permite recuperar esas categorías de análisis. El resultado de este proyecto de investigación es un entorno virtual de trabajo, que pone a disposición de la comunidad investigadora, en acceso abierto, herramientas de análisis, textos y una propuesta metodológica que proyecta el análisis literario en las humanidades digitales

EVT (Edition Visualization Technology) is a software tool to publish Digital Scholarly Editions on the Web. Its development dates back to the start of this decade, and it can boast quite an interesting development history: it was started as a Project-Based Learning initiative within the scope of a single edition project, but it has evolved in a versatile tool valued and used by many researchers. The current development version is based on the beta that has been released in October 2017: it surely is more feature-rich if compared to the first alpha version released in July 2016, however it is still very much critical edition-oriented. A full version supporting diplomatic / interpretative editions, complete with a new, powerful image viewer and a search engine, will be released in the second half of 2019. This paper will report on EVT progress and it will also propose some remarks about its development and the research questions that it entails, namely: the problems that derive from designing an User Interface that must take into account a great number of elements interacting on different layers; the new features that will be introduced in the first stable version and the impact that they will have on the final users; the soundness of the open source development model and the relationship with other projects.

The project EpiDoc XML Encoding of Roman Inscriptions from Serbia: Digitization of Ancient Epigraphic Heritage carried out by the Institute for Balkan Studies of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts and funded by the Ministry of Culture and Information of the Republic of Serbia focuses on research, training, digital documenting and digital edition of Roman inscriptions from the territory of Serbia (the Roman province of Upper Moesia and parts of Lower Pannonia, Dalmatia and Thrace). The project’s primary aim is to form a national e-archive of inscriptions that will be encoded in EpiDoc TEI-XML format. This collection of digital corpora will represent a completely new epigraphic edition that is furthermore born-digital and ready for interchange. The project is envisioned as a core for networking and intensifying the collaboration between research and cultural institutions. Its mission is to educate, inspire and instigate collaborative work and new concepts in epigraphic research.

Korpusdokumentation wird in dieser Arbeit als eine Voraussetzung für die Wiederverwendung von Korpora und als ein Bestandteil des Forschungsdatenmanagements verstanden, welches unter anderem die Veröffentlichung und Archivierung von Korpora umfasst. Verschiedene Forschungsdaten stellen ganz unterschiedliche Anforderungen an die Dokumentation und können auch unterschiedlich wiederverwendet werden. Ein geeignetes Anwendungsbeispiel stellen historische Textkorpora dar, da sie in vielen Fächern als empirische Grundlage für die Forschung genutzt werden können. Sie zeichnen sich im Weiteren durch vielfältige Unterschiede in ihrer Aufbereitung und durch ein komplexes Verhältnis zu der historischen Vorlage aus. Die Ergebnisse von Transkription und Normalisierung müssen als eigenständige Repräsentationen und Interpretationen im Vergleich zur Vorlage verstanden werden. Was müssen Forscherinnen und Forscher über ihr Korpus mit Hilfe von Metadaten dokumentieren, um dessen Erschließung und Wiederverwendung für andere Forscherinnen und Forscher zu ermöglichen? Welche Funktionen übernehmen dabei die Metadaten? Wie können Metadaten modelliert werden, um auf alle Arten von historischen Korpora angewendet werden zu können? Die Arbeit und ihre Fragestellung sind fest in einem interdisziplinären Kontext verortet. Für die Beantwortung der Forschungsfragen wurden Erkenntnisse und Methoden aus den Fachbereichen der Korpuslinguistik, der historischen Linguistik, der Informationswissenschaft sowie der Informatik theoretisch und empirisch betrachtet und für die Entwicklung eines Metamodells für Korpusmetadaten fruchtbar gemacht. Das im Rahmen dieser Arbeit in UML entwickelte Metamodell für Korpusmetadaten modelliert Metadaten von historischen textbasierten Korpora aus einer technisch-abstrakten, produktorientierten und überfachlichen Perspektive und ist in einer TEI-Spezifikation mit Hilfe der TEI-eigenen Modellierungssprache ODD realisiert., Corpus documentation is a requirement for enabling corpus reuse scenarios and is a part of research data management which covers, among others, data publication and archiving. Different types of research data make differing demands on corpus documentation, and may be reused in various ways. Historical corpora represent an interesting and challenging use case because they are the foundation for empirical studies in many disciplines and show a great variety of reuse possibilities, of data creation, and of data annotation. Furthermore, the relation between the historical corpus and the historical original is complex. The transcription and normalisation of historical texts must be understood as independent representations and interpretations in their own right. Which kind of metadata information, then, must be included in a corpus documentation in order to enable intellectual access and reuse scenarios? What kind of role do metadata play? How can metadata be designed to be applicable to all types of historical corpora? These research questions can only be addressed with help of an interdisciplinary approach, considering findings and methods of corpus linguistics, historical linguistics, information science and computer science. The metamodel developed in this thesis models metadata of historical text-based corpora from a technical, abstract, and interdisciplinary point of view with help of UML. It is realised as a TEI-specification using the modelling language ODD.

Actualmente la enseñanza de idiomas parece ser una salida profesional muy demandada por los egresados en Traducción e Interpretación (TeI). Sin embargo, tal y como apunta Mayoral (2001), los estudios universitarios de esta disciplina se han centrado en las competencias ligadas con los procesos de traducción e interpretación. Teniendo en cuenta estos factores y mediante la realización de una encuesta a cien participantes, este estudio analiza la situación de licenciados y graduados en TeI que se dedican a la enseñanza de idiomas, concretamente a la de español como lengua extranjera (ELE), para determinar las necesidades y carencias de formación de estos profesionales y su situación respecto a la incorporación al mercado laboral. Los resultados muestran que, aunque la mayoría de los encuestados encuentran en la enseñanza de ELE una salida profesional tras sus estudios, también son conscientes de que necesitan más formación para dedicarse al campo de la glotodidáctica. Ante tales resultados, las conclusiones del estudio evidencian la necesidad de contar con formación específica en didáctica para este colectivo y la conveniencia de explotar las competencias de traductores e intérpretes en el aula de ELE.

This paper aims to take place into the ongoing debate about the lack of digital editions of classical texts. If, on one hand, a “traditional” critical edition has the benefits of consistency and clarity, but it often lacks objectivity, a digital one can have more scientific ambitions of verifiability, but may have certain problems of methods and visualization. This paper offers thus a report on the preliminary stage of a native digital edition of Catullus which would take into account all the surviving witnesses, with particular focus on the complexity of the tradition and the practical and theoretical problems that an editor is forced to face while coding with TEI apparatus.

This article presents the rationale and the proposal of a preliminary architecture of a formal ontology of the Text Encoding Initiative markup language. The reasons to have a formal and machine-readable semantics for TEI are manifold. In the first place, it would have a number of pragmatic and technical benefits, like better support for semantic interoperability in text encoding practices, easier cross-corpora query processing, seamless integration with Linked Open Data ecosystem. In second place, it would give a formalized account of the quasi-formal notion of the TEI abstract model, fostering the consistency and soundness of the TEI model. Given the complexity of the TEI encoding schema, such an ontology must necessarily have a very complex architecture, and its thorough definition will be a time consuming intellectual activity: in a first stage, we propose to limit its scope to a well-defined subdomain of the TEI, and to build it adopting pre-existing meta-ontology like EARMARK. The final part of the article gives some preliminary details of this design

This paper introduces potentialities and criticisms of digital textual criticism. The aim is to shed light on the importance of the activities related to text reconstruction with regard to the type of text to be edited. Three types of texts are first analyzed and a markup model is proposed for each of them, namely: the last will of an author, an unpublished text, and preliminary texts of a literary work never completed. The exemplar texts here discussed are: Attilio Bertolucci's authographs (belonging to the 30s-40s period); an excerpt from the original manuscript 2Qq E 29 (sec. XVII ex.) by Teresa di S. Geronimo, and the «manoscritto di Populonia» (1959-1961) by Elio Vittorini.
