De venereis (ap. Oribasium) Galenus Raeder, Ioannes Harvard College Library Harvard Library Arcadia Fund Gregory Crane Digital Divide Data Corrected and encoded the text Gregory Crane Editor-in-Chief, Perseus Digital Library Matt Munson Project Manager (University of Leipzig) Annette Gessner Project Assistant (University of Leipzig) Thibault Clérice Lead Developer (University of Leipzig) Bruce Robertson Technical Advisor Revised edition of the originally published versions of the electronic texts. 2024 To reuse the Kühn’s edition for the Galenus verbatim project, we (silently) corrected the texts as found in the First1KGreek repository, whether there were mistakes of transcriptions, errors in the metadata or missing parts of the text. We added bibliographical references to the previous editions referred to in Kühn’s edition as "Bas." and "Chart.": that of the Γαληνοῦ Ἅπαντα published in Basel (hence referred to as #Basel) and the Operum Hippocratis Coi, et Galeni Pergameni of René Chartier (hence referred to as #Chartier); we changed the naming schemes of the milestones indicating the corresponding Basel and Chartier pages in Kühn’s edition, and added the corresponding Basel and Chartier volume number. The editions other than that of Kühn were given milestones indicating the corresponding Kühn volume and pages when they were missing. Treatises from Kühn’s edition were given line numbers. We also added elements of structuration that were present in Kühn’s edition but were missing in the TEI, mainly the division of chapters into sections in some treatises, as well as the header for those sections. The text of headings containing the name of chapter and numbers of chapters and sections have been restored, as well as the original symbols as they appear in Kühn’s printed edition. The text numbered tlg0057.tlg096 that was separately edited was reinserted in the tlg0057.tlg095 in accordance with its location within Kühn’s edition. For details, see the revisionDesc section.

 Greek First round of revisions for publication on the Galenus verbatim website. Added bibliographical information on the editions referred to in Kühn’s edition as "Bas." and "Chart." Corrected and added milestone tags for the missing page changes of both Basel and Chartier editions when they were missing. Punctual correction to the digitization of Kühn’s text. Correction and additions of the sections <div> level when they were missing to better reflect the structure of Kühn’s edition. Modification to the subtype of some <div> to better reflect the structure of Kühn’s edition. Added <label> elements for all headings of chapters and sections. Added <l> elements for verse lines and <lg> elements for linegroups. Symbols that the initial transcription rendered as abbreviations have been restored as they appear in Kühn’s printed edition. For details, see the editorialDecl section. Added line number. The text of headings containing the name of chapter and numbers of chapters and sections have been restored and marked with <label> and <num> elements. All the indentations have been restored. The transcription of the Greek numerals has been verified. The correct Unicode character dexia keraia (U+0374) has been restored to indicate the numeric use of Greek letters in place of the erroneous acute accent (U+0384) that appeared in the initial transcription. The transcription of the punctuation has been reviewed overall, with line-by-line checks for suspicious character sequences. In particular, numerous spurious punctuation marks (dots, commas, apostrophes) present in the initial transcription but corresponding to print smudges in Kühn’s printed edition have been silently removed; whereas punctuation errors originating in the printed edition have been marked up by a <choice> element, in accordance with the principles stated in the editorialDecl section.
