[Gabriel Bodard]

EpiDoc Training: Digital Epigraphy and Papyrology

Institute of Classical Studies, University of London

9–12 September 2024, 15:00-16:00 BST.

Limited places: book at <https://ics.sas.ac.uk/events/epidoc-training>

Tutors: Gabriel Bodard (London), Marta Fogagnolo (Bologna), Tamara Kalkhitashvili (Tbilisi), Polina Yordanova (Helsinki)
Cost: £80 / £40 unwaged and unfunded

We invite applications for a three-day online only, flipped training workshop in the use of EpiDoc (https://epidoc.stoa.org/), the de facto standard for encoding ancient epigraphic and papyrological editions in TEI XML for online publication and interchange. The workshop will introduce the encoding of ancient texts and object data in XML, and sources of information and support on EpiDoc. No technical knowledge is required, but participants are expected to be familiar with the transcription conventions for inscriptions and papyri (Leiden System and similar) and either Greek, Latin or other ancient languages.

The workshop will involve asynchronous training materials and exercises, and three hours of real-time support and discussion via video call, on the Monday, Wednesday and Thursday.

• Monday Sep 9, 15:00 BST
• Wednesday Sep 11, 15:00 BST
• Thursday Sep 12, 15:00 BST
