Croatica et Tyrolensia: bibliography guidelines

Bibliography repository on Bitbucket (clone with Mercurial).

Bibliography of Croatian neo-Latin is prepared as a set of TEI XML files along the FRBR lines. We gather information on:

• authors
• works
• manifestations:
  • editions (older and modern, including excerpts)
  • manuscripts
  • translations (a possibility)

We need to make each record citable, and to interconnect everything, relying on external standards wherever possible. Authors have unique IDs and links to authority files (VIAF, PND etc). Works have unique IDs as well (and manifestations have them too).

1. ID
2. number
3. name 1: standard name from Croatian reference works, surname first
4. name 2 etc: other variants of the name, in other languages as well
5. birth, if known: place (geographically disambiguated with geonames), time (exact date, year, or other ways of dating)
6. floruit: date of works or roughly (as documented, or a guess - 30 years old)
7. death: same as birth
8. residence or residences, with years of living there if known

1. occupation 1: genres
2. occupation 2: actual occupation (one or more of them)
3. sources, if digital are available (Hrvatska enciklopedija), paste in full, else quote.
4. events from biography
   1. @when etc: date of the event, as attribute (or date of document cited)
   2. head: type of event
   3. other people involved: persName + @ref
   4. other places involved: placeName + geonames number
   5. other texts involved: name + @ref (if they are listed in our bibliography)
   6. works are also events, if dated (short title, referring to the Works section)

1. Sources for life (with ref / @target for primary and digitised sources)

See also instructions for adding records for authors from Jurić (in Croatian)

The work is a distinct intellectual or artistic creation.

In case of work containing other work, such as collections of poems, see this:

The solution provided regards that the containment happens at the Expression level, the signs. I.e., in a collection of poems, the final Expression is both, a representation of the collector’s work, and of the collected works. This does not make the collection work contain other work, nor is the Expression necessarily separable into the different contributions: If all poems are cut out, the collection is not properly expressed by the – potentially empty – rest.

2. pubPlace/add = na knjizi nije označeno mjesto izdavanja, već je dodano tijekom bibliografskog opisa; isto i date/add
3. relatedItem = podaci o primjercima (signatura, naziv knjižnice) ili digitalizatima primjeraka (tip, internetska adresa ako postoji)
4. relatedItem/ref: za digitalizate – @type = digitalizat-internet (digitalizat dostupan na internetu); @target = URL adresa (što postojanija i kraća, v. niže)

Tumačenje:

1. biblStruct/@type = externum znači da je glavni autor djela stranac, tj. nije hrvatski latinist
2. author/ref/@target = autor ima svoj ID broj u VIAFu, on se navodi kao vrijednost atributa @target
3. “16o” je ovdje očito oznaka formata, pa nije sigurno da ulazi u extent

See also: Creating a bibliographical record for texts in CroALa via XQuery

• Most important: use Semium time as @period in date element!
• Years, e. g. 1500, as attribute values: 1500-01-01
• Years and months, e. g. October 1500: 1500-10-01
• Exact dates, e. g. October 1, 1500: 1500-10-01 (but repeated in text, e. g. 1. 10. 1500)
• 16th century
• first half of the 16th century
• the twenties of the 16th century
• not before 1500
• not after 1500
• c. 1500
• probably 1500
• unknown

• Google Books: record just the ID from the “About this book” page, e. g, from:

http://books.google.hr/books?id=Bb32Th4WAK0C&dq=patrologiae+cursus+graeco-latina&source=gbs_navlinks_s

take just the part between ?id= and &dq=: Bb32Th4WAK0C — See also Uncle G/On common Google Books mistakes

• BSB (and ZVDD): use “permalink” field in the bibliographic description (e. g.: Permalink: http://www.mdz-nbn-resolving.de/urn/resolver.pl?urn=urn:nbn:de:bvb:12-bsb10495960-1)
• archive.org – if the address is this:

https://archive.org/details/archivfrslavis19berluoft

use just the ID: archivfrslavis19berluoft

• Other: record permalink wherever possible!
