`<title>` | contains the title of a work, whether article, book, journal, or series, including any alternative titles or subtitles.

Attributes:

`level` | (bibliographic level (or class) of title) indicates whether this is the title of an article, book, journal, series, or unpublished material.
| Datatype: (a | m | j | s | u)

Legal values:

`a` | analytic title (article, poem, or other item published as part of a larger item)
`m` | monographic title (book, collection, or other item published as a distinct item, including single volumes of multi-volume works)
`j` | journal title
`s` | series title
`u` | title of unpublished material (including theses and dissertations unless published by a commercial press)

| Default: #IMPLIED

Example:

Note | If the title appears directly enclosed within an `<analytic>` element, the `level` , if given, must be ``a''; if it appears directly enclosed within a `<monogr>` element, `level` must be ``m'', ``j'', or ``u''; when `<title>` is directly enclosed by `<series>` , `level` must be ``s''.

`type` | (type of title) classifies the title according to some convenient typology.
| Datatype: CDATA

Legal values:

`main` | main title
`subordinate` | subtitle, title of part
`parallel` | alternate title, often in another language, by which the work is also known
`abbreviated` | abbreviated form of title

| Default: #IMPLIED

Example:

Note | This attribute is provided for convenience in analysing titles and processing them according to their type; where such specialized processing is not necessary, there is no need for such analysis, and the entire title, including subtitles and any parallel titles, may be enclosed within a single `<title>` element.
