Corpus électroniques de l'ancien égyptien : traitement XML des textes des processions de soubassement des temples tardifs
Résumé
[en] An important element of the grammar of the temple, the processions of Nile Gods inscribed on the lower parts of walls in temples of Ptolemaic and Roman date form an interesting corpus for the study of toponyms or for the history of religions. When the author came to consider the form the publication of this corpus should take, the idea of an electronic publication and treatment by XML seemed very promising. The aim of this paper is not to elaborate the Document Type Definition (DTD) dedicated to Egyptian texts but to put forward the author's comments subsequent to having used the corpus. The subject of the project being textual corpora, the approach will follow that of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). After a brief history of processions and an analysis of their structure, a series of adjustments of the TEI tags will be presented with an explanation of the bias chosen. The outline of an XML file is appended at the end of the paper.
