TEIpõhised

TEIpõhised refers to a concept or practice rooted in TEI, which stands for the Text Encoding Initiative. The TEI is a set of guidelines for encoding machine-readable texts, primarily in the humanities, but also in linguistics and other fields. These guidelines allow for the representation of various aspects of a text, such as its structure, content, and historical context, in a standardized and detailed manner. When something is described as TEIpõhised, it means that it is based on or adheres to the principles and recommendations established by the TEI.

This approach is crucial for digital scholarship, enabling researchers to analyze, search, and disseminate texts in sophisticated ways. TEI encoding provides a rich semantic layer, moving beyond simple digitization to represent textual features like headings, paragraphs, lists, names, dates, and even more complex elements like editorial interventions or variations in different manuscript versions. Therefore, TEIpõhised texts are not just digital copies but are structured and annotated according to TEI standards, making them highly interoperable and suitable for advanced computational analysis. This method facilitates the creation of digital libraries, critical editions, and digital archives that are both robust and accessible.
