The MarineLives wiki contains nearly six million words of semi-diplomatically transcribed early and mid-C17th legal and commercial text. This is one of the larger collections of text derived from C17th manuscript sources, and is certainly the largest English language collection derived from early and mid C17th legal and commercial manuscript sources.
The MarineLives project team is keen to explore the corpus linguistic potential of the material, and welcomes approaches from corpus and historical linguists, interested in discussing this potential.
Contents
Potential etymological use
- ASSEVERATION
- "...the sayd Dirick Dobler in discourse with this deponent touching the premisses did assure this deponent with much asseveration that the sayd goods were all free and for Hamburgh and merchants there living onely or to that purpose..." (Jan 1653/54, English style)[1]
- MANNAGERIE
- "...the same were wholely left (as beleeveth) to the mannagerie of the foresayd William Warren who disposed of them at the place predeposed and went with the proceede of them to the Canaries..." (Jun 1658))[2]
- "...hee this deponent is a factor and agent to the articulate Antonio Rodrigues Robles here at London and soe hath bin for these five yeares last past or thereabouts and imployed by him in keepeing his accompts and mannagerie of his merchandizeing affayres..." (Jul 1658)[3]
- RUCKOO
- "[At Braxil] tooke in a sort of ffish called mannettee and dying-stuff called ruckoo..." (Oct 1655)[4]
Potential creation of glossaries
Potential Natural language programming use
In 2014, MarineLives collaborated with a team at the University of Mannheim Informatics Department, led by Professor Kai Eckert, to explore the application of Natural Language Programming to the MarineLives corpus.
The output of this collaboration was a paper given in Reykjavik at a workshop on Language Resources and Technologies for Processing and Linking Historical Documents and Archives in association with the LREC Conference, May 2014.[5]
