I'm trying to encode a play in XML with TEI-Lite and I've found a problem
at the very beginning. At the beginning of the play it appears a <div>
which is a list with the characters in the work and the names of the actors
who play them. I suppose I should mark them up as a list, however I don't
know how to mark the difference between the character and the actor. I need
to establish this difference because in the original text it is shown as a
two-column table. Namely:
Original text:
Personae
character actor
character actor
character actor
character actor
character actor
I've marked it up as follows (I'm not sure if the <seg> element is properly
used):
<div type="personae">
<head type="main">Personae</head>
<list type="simple">
<item>
<seg type="character">Name of the character</seg>
<seg type="actor">Name of the actor</seg>
</item>
<item>
<seg type="character">Name of the character</seg>
<seg type="actor">Name of the actor</seg>
</item>
<!-- etc. -->
</list>
</div>
Is it properly encoded? Is there any other tag which would fit in here more
accurately?
Thank you very much ;-)
