Tag Glossary

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.

Earnings (from writing)

Machine name
PEARNINGS


PEARNINGS is conceptually related to WRITING > PRODUCTION. It comments both on the value/amount of her literary earnings and her attitude towards them. This means earnings, direct or indirect, from writing, not from a day job (which is tagged as REMUNERATION, in OCCUPATION, in the BIOGRAPHY section). It also sometimes encloses comment on a writer’s feelings or statements about her earnings. It is often used with PCONTRACT or other tags relating to publication process.
