Description
From the project website (accessed 2021-04-06):


 * The Patristic Text Archive offers a collection of texts and translations of Christian texts from antiquity (i.e. “Patristic” is conceived in a very broad sense). At the moment the archive mainly contains Greek texts, but it is explicitly open to all languages ​​in which texts from Christian antiquity have come down to us. The archive is also a place for translations of Patristic texts into all modern languages.


 * In the Patristic Text Archive, all texts are published under an open Creative Commons License (CC-BY, CC-BY-SA) for use and re-use. All texts are available as XML files and are encoded in accordance with the Guidelines for Electronic Text Encoding and Interchange (in version P5) of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) using its own schema. All files are deposited following the CapiTainS Guidelines in order to ensure the greatest possible compatibility with other text archives.


 * Critical editions will be used as far as possible and, if it is legal and feasible, the text-critical information is also digitized. Where this is not possible, older and/or non-critical editions will also be made available. Where possible, the editions in the archive also contain further annotations, such as references to the bible, to places (with links to the Pleiades Gazetteer or to persons (with links to the Common Authority File [GND] or to the Tyndale Individualized Proper Names with all References list).

The texts may be searched (full text and/or metadata) or browsed. As at April 2021 the project is still in beta. Contributions to the site are welcomed.
