Project desciption: The overall objective of the project is to design and implement an infrastructure, accessible to the entire scientific community, for the publication of digital critical editions of ancient and medieval texts. The specific objective is to apply the methodology developed for the digital critical edition of the Latin historian Granius Licinianus (2nd century AD) to other texts, with a particular focus on unpublished medieval works.

The assistant engineer’s main responsibilities will include:
- Encoding and annotating in XML-TEI the transcriptions, translations, and commentaries produced by the project’s philologists, in close collaboration with the IT engineers.
- Testing, correcting, and validating the digital edition in the TEI Publisher-based platform alongside other team members (philologists and IT engineers).
