Title
Hierarchical encoding of text: Technical problems and SGML solutions
Abstract
One recurring theme in the TEI project has been the need to represent non-hierarchical information in a natural way - or at least in a way that is acceptable to those who must use it - using a technical tool that assumes a single hierarchical representation. This paper proposes solutions to a variety of such problems: the encoding of segments which do not reflect a document's primary hierarchy; relationships among non-adjacent segments of texts; ambiguous content; overlapping structures; parallel structures; cross-references; vague locations.
