The Corpus of Late Modern English Texts, version 3.0

 

The Corpus of Late Modern English Texts, version 3.0 (CLMET3.0) has been created by Hendrik De Smet, Hans-Jürgen Diller and Jukka Tyrkkö, as an offshoot of a bigger project developing a database of text descriptors (Diller, De Smet & Tyrkkö 2011). CLMET3.0 is a principled collection of public domain texts drawn from various online archiving projects. In total, the corpus contains some 34 million words of running text. It incorporates CLMET and CLMETEV, and has been compiled following roughly the same principles, that is:

The corpus covers the period 1710-1920, divided into three 70-year sub-periods.The texts making up the corpus have all been written by British authors who are native speakers of English.The corpus never contains more than three texts by the same author.The texts within each sub-period have been written by authors born within a correspondingly restricted sub-period.

However, compared to CLMET and CLMETEV, it comes with a number of important improvements (in addition to being substantially bigger):

CLMET3.0 comes with an explicit genre classification.It is approximately genre-balanced.It is part-of-speech tagged.The corpus files have standardized text headers containing descriptive meta-data.For each text, explicit information is provided on text provenance.The corpus architecture allows subsequent expansions.
