LEMDO Platform

Para1The Queenʼs Men Editions (QME) anthology has been encoded on and built by the Linked Early Modern Drama Online (LEMDO) platform, hosted by the Humanities Computing and Media Centre at the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Canada. LEMDO editions are encoded in the XML encoding language of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). LEMDO’s customization of TEI P5 is designed for editing early modern dramatic texts and editorial paratexts. LEMDO uses a Subversion repository to keep files under version control, and a Jenkins Continuous Integration Server to produce anthologies in the form of static, Endings-compliant websites. QME has adopted the periodic static release model, whereby new versions (editions) of the anthology are released as new content is ready for publication.
Para2LEMDO anthologies have no server-side dependencies. A release of the QME anthology—a bundle of self-contained HTML pages—can be downloaded onto your device and read on a browser even without an internet connection. Contact the LEMDO Team for more information if you want to download a static version of the QME site.
