Example with an HTML template showing Impressum

[MatijaOgrin]

Example from the Research Centre of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences

• Edition: The Letters of Count Ignaz Maria von Attems ...

• Edition URL: https://dariah-si.github.io/Attems/index.html → Colophon

• TEI-XML source: https://github.com/DARIAH-SI/Attems → Attems_letters.xml

Commentary: In the html edition, the impressum (which we call Colophon) is a subset of the content of the <teiHeader>. It includes:

• the <fileDesc> element and its descendants
• the <profileDesc> element (which always contains <abstract>)

Generic desideratum vs. project specific requirements:

• if a generic presentation of these elements is provided in the form of simple textual blocks, this would be fully adequate to the purpose
• in order for the generic mechanism to be compatible with a specific "Slovenian" requirement, we only need that within <availability>, a <p> will be anticipated
• (this particular <p rend="CIP"> contains cataloguing-in-publication data and we can process it separately (I hope so) via ODD: this paragraph contains a snippet of html, delivered (and requested in the edition) by the national library), cf. in the source: /TEI/teiHeader[1]/fileDesc[1]/publicationStmt[1]/availability[1]/p[2]
