As the second child of our project's <TEI>
element, the <text>
element contains the encoded transcription of all of the text on the documents. At the Beckett Digital Manuscript Project, we work with three different types of text: prose, poetry, and drama. You can find a minimally encoded example of each of these types of text below, and more information on all of the tags we use in the <text>
element in the tree-like tag structure in the sidebar on the right.
