Scope note

Text

This class describes portions of text considered to be of particular significance by scholars, as witnesses of a certain meaning or bearers of a particular phenomenon relevant to the investigation, study and understanding of a text. Examples of such text portions are columns, fragments, sections, paragraphs, as well as single words or signs, or other components of a written text. To each of these entities can be associated a single production event (TX2) or destruction event (E6), as in the case of letters or words damaged or worn by atmospheric agents or human interventions, as well as specific conditions (E3) for documenting its status during the text recognition process (TX5). The relationship between a written text (TX1) and its components is documented through the TXP4 has segment property.
