Module core — Elements Available in All TEI Documents
Attributes
type⚓︎ classifies the title according to some convenient typology.
Derived from att.typed
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Sample values include:
main
main title
sub
(subordinate) subtitle, title of part
alt
(alternate) alternate title, often in another language, by which the work is also known
short
abbreviated form of title
desc
(descriptive) descriptive paraphrase of the work functioning as a title
Note

This attribute is provided for convenience in analysing titles and processing them according to their type; where such specialized processing is not necessary, there is no need for such analysis, and the entire title, including subtitles and any parallel titles, may be enclosed within a single title element.
calendar⚓︎ indicates one or more systems or calendars to which the date represented by the content of this element belongs.
Deprecated This feature will be withdrawn after 2024-11-11
Status Optional
Datatype 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace
Schematron

<sch:rule context="tei:*[@calendar]">
<sch:assert test="string-length( normalize-space(.) ) gt 0"> @calendar indicates one or more
systems or calendars to which the date represented by the content of this element belongs,
but this <sch:name/> element has no textual content.</sch:assert>
</sch:rule>
level⚓︎ indicates the bibliographic level for a title, that is, whether it identifies an article, book, journal, series, or unpublished material.
Status Optional
Datatype teidata.enumerated
Legal values are:
a
(analytic) the title applies to an analytic item, such as an article, poem, or other work published as part of a larger item.
m
(monographic) the title applies to a monograph such as a book or other item considered to be a distinct publication, including single volumes of multi-volume works
j
(journal) the title applies to any serial or periodical publication such as a journal, magazine, or newspaper
s
(series) the title applies to a series of otherwise distinct publications such as a collection
u
(unpublished) the title applies to any unpublished material (including theses and dissertations unless published by a commercial press)
Note

The level of a title is sometimes implied by its context: for example, a title appearing directly within an analytic element is ipso facto of level ‘a’, and one appearing within a series element of level ‘s’. For this reason, the level attribute is not required in contexts where its value can be unambiguously inferred. Where it is supplied in such contexts, its value should not contradict the value implied by its parent element.

Note

The attributes key and ref, inherited from the class att.canonical may be used to indicate the canonical form for the title; the former, by supplying (for example) the identifier of a record in some external library system; the latter by pointing to an XML element somewhere containing the canonical form of the title.
