If you would like to consult the Senate House Library’s manuscript of “Early Spring,” you can download it here. Create a short explanatory or textual note about some aspect of the poem in the element (hint: a sibling of ).Create a note to reproduce Ricks’s textual headnote, and try to encode certain aspects within that note (any people, places?).Create entries (and for Alfred Lord Tennyson, Hallam Tennyson, and Christopher Ricks (it does not have to be complete). and personography (also called prosopography) data within either or (within ). Create a witness list within the sourceDesc.Return to your TEI-encoded text of Tennyson’s “Early Spring”.(Note that you are more than welcome to attempt this exercise on a file of your own.) OK, but why did the element include its own Exercise This essentially structures a system of footnotes (or endnotes) that link you away from the reading text. The element uses a # mark to indicate that we are going to move to another place in the file: in this case, it is to find the which is properly encoded as a note in the back matter of the edition file. "see into the life of things"] From Wordsworth's "Lines Written a As a simple example from the Cranch Journal project (which we examined on Day 2), the note system is constructed this way: Many projects will create a linking system for note-writing. ![]() The way you encode your annotations will depend on how you want the notes to be structured, and where you will want the notes to appear in your interface. Thankfully contextual annotation is a bit simpler in TEI: for many projects a TEI element will suffice (for more, consult the Guidelines). More information about app crit in TEI can be found in Chapter 12 of the TEI Guidelines. If you would like to replicate Ricks’s app crit, you’ll want to also nest a element (a lemma) so that you can represent the preferred reading (the lemma) which points to its variants at the foot of the page. Remember that the essence of the app crit in TEI is the element, which contains at least elements with attributes.
