Synopsis

In collaboration with Digital Artist Ira Greenberg, I am building a Poetry Visualization Tool. He is building the visualizations in the Processing language; I am encoding the poetry to be visualized in an xml code that is an extension of TEI, with "pa" ([Poetess Archive | http://unixgen.muohio.edu/~poetess]) elements added into it. What I offer here is not the processing code but the extended TEI and its schema that can be used to code the meter, sound, tropology, and syntax of poetry.

Features

This is simply an extended tagset for analyzing poetry, at the moment, though the tag set can be used by a visualization tool in development at http://www.iragreenberg.com/ira_greenberg_data/code/poetess/index.html
