<part>

The <part> tag is a major division of a <book>. A part groups multiple <chapter> elements under a shared title, often to organize a long work into larger thematic units.

Parts can also affect numbering. With structural parts, chapter numbering restarts within each part; with decorative parts, the part is presentational only.
