Encoding principles:

Correction

TLH has not made any alterations to the text of the printed edition.

Normalisation

The electronic edition represents the text of Myles Dillon’s printed translation.

Quotation

Quotation marks enclosing direct speech, whether single or double in the printed source, are encoded in TLH with the <q> tag. The same tag is also used in situations where direct speech has not been explicitly marked by the use of quotation marks.

Hyphenation

End-of-line hyphenation of the printed original has not been retained in the electronic edition.

Tags declaration:

The <supplied> tag is used to encode additions to the text made by the print editor or the editor of the electronic text. The “resp” attribute indicates the source of the supplied text: “p” indicates print editor and “e” electronic editor.
The <unclear> tag is reserved for doubtful passages of which the translator was not sure.
