Abstract
The York–Toronto–Helsinki Parsed Corpus of Old English Prose (YCOE) is a 1.5 million-word syntactically annotated corpus of Old English prose texts. It was produced at the University of York, UK, between 2000 and 2003, by Ann Taylor, Anthony Warner, Susan Pintzuk and Frank Beths, with a grant from the English Arts and Humanities Research Board (B/RG/AN5907/APN9528). The YCOE is part of the English Parsed Corpora Series. It was the third historical corpus to be completed in this format, and uses the same kind of annotation scheme as its sister corpora, the Penn–Helsinki Parsed Corpus of Middle English II (PPCME2), the York–Helsinki Parsed Corpus of Old English Poetry and the Penn–Helsinki Parsed Corpus of Early Modern English. Two other corpora in the series, the parsed version of the Corpus of Early English Correspondence and the Penn Parsed Corpus of Modern British English, are currently under construction (at the University of York, UK, in cooperation with the University of Helsinki, Finland, and the University of Pennsylvania, USA, respectively).
