TEI by example: CALL FOR EXAMPLES, revised
by TEI by example 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

All, [==============================] A fruitful discussion following our initial call for examples on the TEI-L mailing list (see the thread starting with <http://listserv.brown.edu/archives/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0612&L=tei-l&X=6FAA5839…>), informed us that the initially proposed license scheme for the tutorials was inadequate for our purposes. Therefore, we decided to adopt a more liberal Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike license (<http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/>). In order to avoid confusion, here follows a revised call for examples: [==============================] The Centre for Scholarly Editing and Document Studies (CTB) <http://www.kantl.be/ctb/> of the Royal Academy of Dutch Language and Literature, the Centre for Computing in the Humanities (CCH) <http://www.kcl.ac.uk/humanities/cch/> of King's College London, and the School for Library, Archive, and Information Studies (SLAIS) <http://www.slais.ucl.ac.uk/> of University College London, are involved in the joint project "TEI by Example". Featuring freely available online tutorials walking individuals through the different stages in marking up a document in TEI (Text Encoding Initiative <http://www.tei-c.org>), these online tutorials will provide examples for users of all levels. Examples will be provided of different document types, with varying degrees in the granularity of markup, to provide a useful teaching and reference aid for those involved in the marking up of texts. Eight tutorial modules will address a wide range of issues in text encoding with TEI: 1. Introduction to text encoding with TEI 2. The TEI header 3. Prose 4. Poetry 5. Drama 6. Manuscript Transcription 7. Scholarly Editing 8. Customizing TEI, ODD, Roma To build as much as possible on available sources of existing practice in the field and to be able to present a broad view on the wide variety of encoding practices, we warmly welcome you to contribute TEI-encoded examples (either fragments or complete texts) that are applicable to any of these subjects. Examples are preferably encoded as TEI P5 XML texts, but also texts encoded in TEI P4 XML, other XML formats, or other (documented) electronic formats are of interest. Even examples of less-ideal encoding practices are welcome, since the idea of learning by error is a valuable didactic principle. Please do provide some indication of the errors or controversies in such examples when appropriate. After selection and editing, the example fragments will be incorporated in the freely available online deliverables, which will be issued under a Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike license (see <http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/>). All contributors will be credited. The examples can be sent (preferably compressed in .zip format and with an indication of applicability and credits due) to teibyexample(a)kantl.be. Please do not hesitate to contact us for any inquiries regarding copyright issues or any more general issues. Kind regards, The project team: Ron Van den Branden, Melissa Terras, Edward Vanhoutte

Web genres
by Daniel O'Donnell 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

Hi all, The following may be of interest to some on this list, though the deadline is tight: > APOLOGIES FOR CROSS-POSTINGS > --------------------------- > > 2nd Call for Abstracts > > Corpus Linguistics 2007 Colloquium: > Towards a reference corpus of web genres > > > COLLOQUIUM DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES > > Genres of spoken and written texts are being intensively > studied from > various angles, e.g., communication studies, discourse > analysis, > computational linguistics, without arriving at a generally > accepted > definition. The web is new, so it is not clear how to apply > traditional > notions of genre to web pages. In this colloquium we would > like collect > submissions that study characteristics of web genres with > respect to > traditional paper genres represented in electronic corpora > like the BNC. > > Web documents are often characterised by a high level of genre > hybridism, > by a fragmentation of textuality across several documents, by > the impact of > technical features such as hyperlinking, posting facilities > and > multi-authoring. The web is a huge reservoir of documents that > can be > easily mined for building all sorts of corpora with many > collections being > built according to subjective criteria for > corpus composition, genre annotation, genre representativeness > and genre > granularity. In this colloquium we would like to invite > submissions > contributing to a reference corpus of web genres. The main > goal of the > colloquium is to draw up an initial list of characteristics > and > requirements for building, annotating and evaluation reference > corpora of > web genres. For instance: > > * To what extent should genre hybridism and authorial > creativity be > represented in a genre collection? These two phenomena appear > to be very > common on the web. > > * To what extent is it possible to include ''emerging > genres'', i.e., > genres still in a transitional phase in genre evolution? The > web is > currently thriving with emerging genres. > > * How many granularities of the unit of analysis should be > included? Only > genres representing web sites? Only genre representing web > pages? Both? > > * What ''format'' should be used to store these units in a > collection > (e.g., a database-like form, DOM trees, a net of graphs, in > HTML format, in > a text-only version, with or without embedded images, removing > boilerplate > components)? > > * What level of genre granularity and similarity should be > applied in the > reference corpus? Genre collections often show different > levels of > granularity, including genres and super-genres. Should similar > genres, such > as ''tutorial'' and ''how-to'', be accounted for separately? > > TOPICS: > > The topics of interest include but are not limited to: > > - Text theory for the development of web corpora > - Modelling corpora of web genres > - Innovative genre classification schemes accounting for > multi-genre and > no-genre web documents > - Modelling genre annotation scheme for web documents > (metadata organization) > - Assembling a list of web genres for a reference corpus > - Creating comparable corpora of web genre > - Automatic genre classification vs. human genre > classification > - How to evaluate the corpus: using statistical measures, > relying on corpus > linguists, librarians, or web users? > > PARTICIPATION > > The aim of this colloquium, the first ever organized on this > topic, is to > bring together researchers from different communities such as > corpus > linguistics, genre analysis, digital genre community, > computational > linguistics, and information retrieval in order to promote the > discussion > and development of new ideas and methods to create new corpora > for language > studies and as evaluation resources. > > Send abstrats to: webgenres(a)googlemail.com > Please, specify ''Colloquium Abstracts'' in the subject line. > > Abstract submissions should include: > * Presenter contact information (mailing address, phone, > e-mail & fax) > * A paper proposal (250 word max) > * An abstract for the program (50 word max) > > The deadline for submissions is Dec 15, 2006 > Notification of acceptance will be sent out by Jan 11, 2007 > > *LOCATION*: > The colloquium will take place in the UK at the end of July > 2007. The venue > and the exact date of the colloquium will be announced at the > end of > January 2007. > > Colloquium Organization: > > Marina Santini (University of Brighton, UK) > Serge Sharoff (University of Leeds, UK) > > Program Committee: > > Marco Baroni (University of Bologna, Italy) > Stefan Gries (University of California, USA) > Adam Kilgarriff (Lexmasterclass, UK) > Alexander Mehler (Bielefeld University, Germany) > Sven Meyer zu Eissen (University of Weimar, Germany) > John Paolillo (Indiana University, USA) > Paul Rayson (UCREL, Lancaster Uni, UK) > Georg Rehm (University of Tuebingen, Germany) > Marina Santini (University of Brighton, UK) > Serge Sharoff (University of Leeds, UK) > Benno Stein (University of Weimar, Germany) > > Contacts: > ======== > Main contact: Serge Sharoff (s.sharoff(a)leeds.ac.uk) > Other contact: Marina Santini > (Marina.Santini(a)itri.brighton.ac.uk) > > > Linguistic Field(s): Text/Corpus Linguistics -- Daniel Paul O'Donnell, PhD Department Chair and Associate Professor of English Director, Digital Medievalist Project http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/ Chair, Text Encoding Initiative http://www.tei-c.org/ Department of English University of Lethbridge Lethbridge AB T1K 3M4 Vox +1 403 329-2377 Fax +1 403 382-7191 Email: daniel.odonnell(a)uleth.ca WWW: http://people.uleth.ca/~daniel.odonnell/
