Parsed Corpus of Early English Correspondence: Searching

The Parsed Corpus of Early English Correspondence

Searching the PCEEC

The syntactically parsed PCEEC is designed to be searched with CorpusSearch, a search engine written by Beth Randall at the University of Pennsylvania. The PCEEC comes in two formats, one compatible with CorpusSearch 1.1 (now discontinued, but still widely used) and one compatible with the new CorpusSearch 2. CorpusSearch 2 is open source software which can be freely downloaded from Sourceforge (see Upgrade to CS2 for details). It has some nice new features, but is still under development (12/30/05) and consequently somewhat unstable. Problems with CS2 should be reported to corpussearch@babel.ling.upenn.edu.
