When making references to a manuscript from the apparatus<\/a> but when it is necessary to mention different hands or circumstances of the text, we also need to have these versions in the conspectus siglorum<\/em> creating a sublist that indicates what <witness><\/code> is referred to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For these sublists the tag <listWit><\/code>is also used, but including an @copyOf<\/code> attribute that points to the @xml:id<\/code> of the <witness><\/code> of which they are a copy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<witness xml:id=\"N\">\n    <abbr type=\"siglum\">N<\/abbr>\n    codex Genauensis Bodmerianus (olim Cheltoniensis) saec. X\/XI\n<\/witness>\n    <listWit copyOf=\"#N\">\n        <witness xml:id=\"Nac\">\n            <abbr type=\"siglum\">N<hi rendition=\"simple:superscript\">ac<\/hi><\/abbr>\n            codex Genauensis Bodmerianus (olim Cheltoniensis) saec. X\/XI\n                <desc>lectio codicis ante correctionem<\/desc>\n        <\/witness>\n        <witness xml:id=\"Npc\">\n            <abbr type=\"siglum\">N<hi rendition=\"simple:superscript\">pc<\/hi><\/abbr>\n            codex Genauensis Bodmerianus (olim Cheltoniensis) saec. X\/XI\n                <desc>lectio codicis post correctionem<\/desc>\n        <\/witness>\n    <\/listWit><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
The <listWit><\/code> that collects the different versions of each manuscripts is placed immediately after that of the original <witness><\/code> , and inherits from it the first part of the @xml:id<\/code>, the siglum in <abbr><\/code>, and the text that identifies the name, location and date of the manuscript.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But it is also necessary to add the superscripts or symbols that identify each version of the manuscript, which are added both to the @xml:id<\/code> of each secondary <witness><\/code> and to the <abbr><\/code> that identifies it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition, the tag has a @copyOf<\/code> included that clearly points to the original manuscript to which it refers. As in all other cases where an attribute points to the @xml:id<\/code> of another element declared in our document, the @copyOf<\/code> value must always be prefixed with the #<\/code>symbol. In the example above, to point to the manuscript N, copyOf=\"#N\"<\/code>must be written, and so on in all cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The form in which these variants appear in each <witness><\/code> variant will depend on each edition. It will be usual to put in superscript or subscript form the abbreviation \u2018ac\u2019 or \u2018pc\u2019 (or whatever they are), or a number, a Greek letter, or any letter or symbol that each reference editor has chosen to use:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<witness xml:id=\"Nac\">\n            <abbr type=\"siglum\">N<hi rendition=\"simple:superscript\">ac<\/hi><\/abbr>\n            codex Genauensis Bodmerianus (olim Cheltoniensis) saec. X\/XI\n                <desc>lectio codicis ante correctionem<\/desc>\n<\/witness><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Thus, following the example above, a manuscript N can be cited from the apparatus<\/a> in three ways: as #N<\/code>, and as its two variants listed below: #Nac<\/code> (lectio codicis ante correctionem<\/em>) and #Npc<\/code> (lectio codicis post correctionem<\/em>). Other manuscripts may have other variants, described in different ways by the <desc><\/code>, tag, following the model seen in the example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
