The Tag Glossary: H

Orlando's content is structured by the unique XML tagset described in the Introduction and visualized in the Tag Diagrams. To assist in understanding Search result facets and Tag Search, this Glossary provides definitions for tags and attributes (descriptors associated with tags). Some attributes have set values. These are often explained within definitions of attributes. Other attribute values, such as genre names, are defined within the ontologies of the Canadian Writing Research Collaboratory, which hosts Orlando’s production environment. Searches on this page retrieve tags, attributes, and definitions, but not necessarily attribute values.

HEALTH is one of the 16 major DIV1 content elements in the BIOGRAPHY section of entries defined as integral to mapping a woman's life.This element discusses all serious events and issues associated with her health, both mental and physical. We are particularly interested in women's health issues and this element has an associated attribute value to indicate them. We hope to make connections between social, political and historical health issues (for example, the gendered nature of mental health) and the personal lives of women writers (the experience of a woman writer being incarcerated in a mental institution). While we are not interested in listing all health problems a woman writer encountered, we are interested in analyzing the effect of her health on her life and writing.

A single optional attribute, ISSUE, distinguishes various aspects of HEALTH through attributes PHYSICAL, MENTAL, and FEMALEBODY.
