Editing Inscriptions with EpiDoc: Case Studies from Glasgow

Editing Inscriptions with EpiDoc: Case Studies from Glasgow

Join us for TELab’s first event on epigraphy: the study of ancient inscriptions on a variety of different media. The session will showcase two Glasgow projects at different stages of development, each engaged in creating a digital edition using EpiDoc (the international standard for encoding ancient texts, especially inscriptions). Dr Alex Antoniou will present his work on editing inscriptions which concern the worship of the Roman emperor and his family in the Italian peninsula, while the Og(h)am project will exhibit their recently published digital edition of inscriptions in a unique script from early medieval Ireland and Britain.
