Digital Humanities Workshop @PCL: Corpora for Humanities Research

Corpora has long been a research model utilized by linguists to answer critical questions about the development of and relationships among languages. This workshop takes inspiration from corpus linguistics to demonstrate the applicability of text corpora to Humanities research generally. We will learn how to conceptualize a corpus project, from research question to model, and then implement test annotations using the EXMARaLDA annotation tool. We will also review existing text corpora projects and the myriad ways that corpora can be utilized for Humanities research.
