A Parsed Linguistic Atlas of Early Middle English Corpus of Historical Mapudungun

The Corpora and Atlases above are the results of well over half a century of research on mediaeval texts at Edinburgh.  The methodology of these resources (and in some cases their data too) are part of a family tree of intellectual inheritance beginning with LALME in the 1950s and continuing to this day.
The original IHD corpora are currently undergoing a major digital upgrade, which we hope will make them more easily accessible to new generations of scholars. This project should be completed in 2021.
