Hello everyone,

I'm new to Digital Medievalist. I am a librarian for a special collection that focuses on legal history. In preparation for possible future digitization projects, I would like to become acquainted with TEI DTDs formulated for medieval legal texts and commentaries. Is there anyone out there working on such texts and could help guide me towards vocabulary/tags for representing glosses, legal formulae, sententiae, legal citations and so forth in medieval law manuscripts?

Thanks!

Jennifer Nelson
