[tei-council] relatedItem at type values

Fri Oct 30 18:28:49 EDT 2009

I have not forgotten that I was supposed to be coming up with
a sample list of relationships between related bibliographical items to
serve as exemplary values for @type (and/or @subtype)
on the element <relatedItem>.

I took an inductive approach, surveying the kinds of
relationships expressed in the bibliographies attached
to about 400 Michigan faculty curricula vitae (vitarum?),
and then added those found in my own ancient dissertation
bibliography, as well as the canonical relationships
enshrined in the MARC linking fields.

There is no end of possible permutations. MARC lists only
a few, and dispenses with the rest by means of the catch-all
787 field (unspecified relationship: supply details in a 580
'complexity note'). TEI encoders would probably do well to
follow a similar practice: there is no ready way to get
"Middle Scots paraphrase (with the aid of a Middle English
crib) of an Old French version of a Catalan original" into
a @type. Such things demand to be treated more discursively.

Most of the likely relationships appear
naturally as pairs, depending on which end of the relationship
is taken as the primary entry, and which is nested within it
as related. E.g.

@type="translatedAs"
@type="translatedFrom"
@type="adaptedAs"
@type="adaptedFrom"
@type="modernizedFrom"
@type="modernizedAs"

but a few are bidirectional or neutral as to direction:

@type="alsoIssuedas"
@type="alsoPublishedIn"

How to express the relationship is a another question. MARC in its
descriptions mostly uses the participial form, as above. And it definitely
has advantages, since the nominal forms of the unidirectional pairs
tend to end up as ugly hyphenated compounds or risk losing the connection 
between the paired forms. E.g. one could use type="translation" 
type="paraphrase" type="adaptation" (or type="translation" subtype="exact" 
/ "paraphrase" / "adaptation" etc.) but then be faced with poor choices
as to how to handle the reverse relationship: "type="translation-original"
type="adaptation-original" etc. ("original" means too many things, I 
think.)

The bidirectional relationships, on the other hand are perhaps better 
expressed as nouns or noun phrases:

@type="otherForm"
@type="otherEdition"
@type="otherLanguage"

Probably, as usual, I am thinking about this the wrong way.
But till I'm told otherwise, I tend towards using phrasal
@types to describe relationships--verbal phrases for those
that indicate direction, and nominal phrases for those that
are neutral or static.

Finally, how to make best use of @type and @subtype in
combination depends a lot on how one is accustomed to doing
so. This my first attempt assumes that @type should be used
for the primary description of the relationship, @subtype
for qualifiers. E.g.

@subtype="inPart"
@subtype="dataOnly"
@subtype="extractsOnly"
@subtype="withAdditions"
@subtype="withRevisions"

Under those assumptions, all of which are probably
controversial, alongside those given above, a healthy sample might 
include:

@type="supplementedBy"
@type="supplementTo"

@type="issuedWith"
@type="accompanies"

@type="continues"
@type="supersedes"
@type="combines"
@type="absorbs"
@type="separatedFrom"

@type="continuedBy"
@type="supersededBy"

@type="absorbedBy"
@type="splitInto"
@type="mergedWith"
@type="revertsTo"
@type="partOf"
@type="includes"
@type="includedIn"

@type="sequelTo"
@type="followedBy"

@type="revisionOf"
@type="revisedAs"

@type="abridgementOf"
@type="abridgedFrom"

@type="expansionOf"
@type="expandedFrom"

@type="reprintedAs"
@type="reprintedFrom"

I'll go no further in case I'm on the wrong track altogether.
