This session offered an introduction to critical digital editing in TEI. In particular, the session provided a hands-on introduction to how the TEI facilitates editorial markup for manuscript and print texts. Topics included encoding manuscript features–such as additions, deletions, and other revisions in one or more hands–and editorial interventions, such as editorial notes, gaps, and supplied text; marking up interpretations and mechanisms for encoding analysis; and handling of figures, tables, and images.
