EpiDoc Workshop: Training in Digital Epigraphy and Papyrology and Electronic Publication, Institute of Classical Studies, University of London, April 20–24, 2020

We invite applications for a five-day training workshop in the use of EpiDoc, the de facto standard for encoding ancient epigraphic and papyrological editions in TEI XML for online publication and interchange. The workshop will cover the encoding of ancient texts in XML, sources of information and support on EpiDoc, and publication of editions through the EFES platform.

No technical knowledge is required, but participants are expected to be familiar with the transcription conventions for inscriptions and papyri (“Leiden”), and either Greek, Latin or other ancient languages of their epigraphic tradition.

Tutors: Gabriel Bodard, Laura Löser, Christopher Ohge, Charlotte Tupman

Cost: £100 for one week
