In East Asia in general, including Japan, the diffusion of TEI has been extremely limited. Therefore, the authors have made various efforts to overcome this barrier. In the process, we have realized the need for a viewer that meets the needs of East Asian Classics, which are mostly written vertically, and that can be easily used while focusing on vertical display. In order to familiarize researchers of the East Asian Classics with TEI, it was necessary to provide a viewer that could be used easily, while focusing on the vertical display of the text. To this end, Nagasaki developed a simple vertical viewer based on CETEIcean, and customized it to meet each researcher’s needs as Nagasaki presented in the TEI conferences before.

　Moreover, Mr. Homma joined the team and integrated the customized viewers into a single viewer, while allowing users to easily customize some functions. This is the TEIviewer4EAJ[1] presented here. It supports several major styles of literature in East Asian classics (especially Japanese), especially those related to critical apparatus, waka poetry, and IIIF images, and is currently very popular. If a fragment in IIIF image is described by <zone>, the part can be focused in the viewer. It also provides a function to display the relationship between xml:id and @ref or @corresp in a graph. In addition, in response to requests for special customization, we have developed a viewer[2] for trilingual texts based on the TEIviewer4EAJ. This viewer is also equipped with functions such as the ability to display multiple translations in parallel and to magnify images on the corresponding picture scrolls.

　In the future, we plan to convert what is possible from this customized version back to the integrated version, while further developing an integrated viewer.

En países como Guatemala, hay poco trabajo de digitalización y codificación de documentos musicales con fines de preservación y acceso. Este artículo presenta la labor de digitalización y codificación de los libros de polifonía de la Catedral de Guatemala que fue llevado a cabo con el propósito de preservar dicho patrimonio musical y darlo a conocer fuera de las paredes del archivo de la Catedral. Esta colección de libros de música es un ejemplo de la transmisión cultural de la música europea en Latinoamérica y es parte importante del patrimonio e historia del país. Con el objetivo de colaborar en su preservación y diseminación, obtuve permiso de parte del Canciller de la Curia Eclesiástica para la elaboración de un proyecto piloto para la digitalización y codificación del primero de estos seis libros, el GuatC 1. Este artículo presenta el proceso seguido para estos fines, el cuál involucra diferentes tecnologías de digitalización y la integración de distintas herramientas de codificación musical. Finalmente, el artículo da acceso a las imágenes a color y alta resolución de los folios del libro GuatC 1 y a su corpus de música codificada en MEI, la cuál puede ser renderizada y escuchada en línea.

The connection between literature and cinema has been extensively studied from various perspectives. However, the intricate interplay between the film industry and the publishing market remains underexplored. As part of a larger research project, the paper investigates how Italian filmmakers influenced the publishing market between the 1950s and 1980s.

By employing TEI P5 guidelines, the study reconstructs a corpus of edited and unedited letters from different archives. We will focus on three directors: Fellini, Pasolini, and Petri. While our selection may seem arbitrary, these filmmakers were chosen due to their relationships with various Italian and foreign publishers, authors, and literary agents.

Following established models like the Darwin Correspondence Project (https://www.darwinproject.ac.uk), the Van Gogh Letters Project (https://tei-c.org/activities/projects/vincent-van-gogh-the-letters/), the Bellini Digital Correspondence (Del Grosso and Spampinato, 2023, http://bellinicorrespondence.cnr.it), and Vespasiano da Bisticci’s Letters (Tomasi, 2013, 10.6092/unibo/vespasianodabisticciletters), we created a macro.xml file containing access points to the letters. These include descriptions of individuals and their occupations, cited works, names of organizations (publishing houses, producers, etc.), places, and literary and film awards. Each letter is encoded in an XML file, employing TEI elements <CorrespDesc> and <CorrespContext> to provide a comprehensive framework. A generic <rs> tag, with attributes “ref” and “type”, specifies the mentioned elements (person, book, film, organization, profession) in the texts. This detailed encoding sheds light on the publication process and filmmaker-publisher interactions. Considering the possible copyright issues regarding archival material and drawing on programmable corpora methodologies from the DraCor Project (Fischer et al., 2019), visualization software facilitates network analysis without consulting the texts in case of copyright restrictions. This study aims to contribute to our understanding of the historical interplay between cinema and publishing and define a philological model for research in XML TEI. Ultimately, it seeks to provide a reusable and interdisciplinary model for encoding material concerning different creative industries.

The Cartographer app is an open-source image markup tool that automatically creates corresponding bars (measures) in Music Encoding Initiative (MEI). It integrates with public libraries ' resources with features like image file uploading, IIIF manifest loading, and MEI file generation. Additionally, it uses an AI library, i.e., Measure Detector, to automate bar position detection. While currently focused on MEI, plans include expanding to TEI and setting it apart with its GitHub and IIIF integration for annotating musical and non-musical elements.
