#757: punctuation of lists

opened by thuchacz

You'll note that in the TCN and TL for 1r, there are periods following each item in the lists. I asked MHS about this convention by email months ago. He replied: "We do tend to punctuate lists. The traditional way would be semi-colons, but I thought that would be a bit too much here. If you hate the periods, I won't put up a cultural fight."

I seem to recall we decided no punctuation for the TL (if so, it still needs to be removed). If we want to keep the punctuation in the TCN (@Pantagrueliste, can you verify that this is a beloved convention?), then we need to extend it to other lists in the Ms., e.g., 170v.

I say no punctuation.
