Faculty of Language, Literature and Humanities - Corpus Linguistics and Morphology

Documentation Version 5.0

Corpus pipeline

  1. Seven additional texts were added:
    BuchDerNatur_1482_vonMegenberg
    NewKreuetterBuch_1539_Bock
    NewKreueterbuch_1563_Handsch
    Phythologia_1662_Becher
    TheatrumBotanicum_1696_Verzascha
    ViridariumReformatum_1719_Valentini
    Kraeuterbuch_1914_Losch
    You can find a complete list of all documents of this version in the download section.
  2. Transcription and tokenization of the seven new texts with TreeTagger.
  3. Normalization of the seven new texts (<norm> layer). Correction of the <norm> layer and <dipl> layer of all texts published before 1652.
  4. Part-of-speech tagging and lemmatization with TreeTagger-Batch and TreeTagger for all documents (4.1 and 5.0). Please note: Quotation marks can cause errors and need to be masked. Furthermore empty lines will be deleted by the TreeTagger. Fill those lines with a random tag (e.g. <9>) and use the option -sgml while tagging. Lines that include tags will not be tagged and can be deleted afterwards. After merging TreeTagger-output with the MS Excel file, the MS Excel macro SearchAndMerge (Readme) reconstruct the segmentation.
  5. Manual creation and correction of structural and content annotations in MS Excel.
  6. Automatic replacement of specific special characters in <dipl> of all documents with NormalizeDipl (e.g. all macrons were replaced by tildes).
  7. Automatic creation of <clean> for all documents(Python-Script and Readme, this version of the script works with Python 2.x only).
  8. Manual correction of <norm> and replacement of all pos-annotations of unreadable tokens; technical processing was facilitated by the macro ReplacePosOfUnclear (Readme) to "XY" in MS Excel.
  9. Conversion from MS Excel to ANNIS format and PAULA format via Pepper.

 

 

 

Corpus design

 

In order to study the development of the scientific language throughout the period of interest, we require a subject domain that is sufficiently well represented in all subperiods. That is why we have selected the domain of herbology (Kräuterkunde). Texts vary somewhat in length since older text is more difficult to annotate. Jahr-dipl-Übersicht zu Ridges v5

 

Annotation layers

The RIDGES corpus is designed as a multi-layer architecutre. Annotation layers can be roughly divided into five kinds:

  1. Transcription/normalisation
  2. Linguistic annotations
  3. Structural annotations
  4. Content annotation
  5. Metadata

 

Transcription/normalisation

Annotation layer and value(s) Description
dipl
independent segmentation

annotation value(s):
  • Text
 The diplomatic transcription of the word form as found on the manuscript. A Unicode-table with special character is used.
clean
independent segmentation

annotation value(s):
  • Text
 Automatic normalization by a Python-Script regarding graphical structures and special characters only (e.g. "ſ" to "s"). For example, a form with a line break like wor=den will be cleaned to worden but not normalized to modern geworden where this would now be the appropriate form. For words including line breaks notice, that if the second word begins with a capital letter, this letter will be normalized to a small letter in the clean layer (e.g. "Gelb- Sucht" to "Gelbsucht"). If all letters of the second word are capital letters, they will remain the same (e.g. "MON- TANUM" to "MONTANUM"). Dipl units containing vowels with macrons are replaced by each potential form of that token, separated by '|' (for example: 'auſzwēdig' to: 'auszwemdig|auszwendig'). For a full overview of the replacements for the clean-tier see the Readme.
norm
independent segmentation

annotation value(s):
  • Text
 In this layer the segmentation, graphemics, inflection forms and lexemes are normalized. Graphemics: orthographic normalization according to Duden (e.g. kreutter -> Kräuter); phonology: please notice the sound changes of the Early New High German period, like diphthongization, monophthongization, syncope, apocoke, etc. (e.g. lehret -> lehrt); morphology: in die Nasen -> in die Nase; lexicology: extinct lexical material is normalized according to modern orthography and described in the layer "erlaeuterung" as the case may be (e.g. Vergeſz -> Vergess); word formation: extinct morphemes are normalized - if possible - according to modern orthography (e.g. halben -> halber or stachelecht -> stachelig). Currently there are only some documents in which case was normalized.
