The Dictionary of Old English Web Corpus is an online database consisting of at least one copy of every Old English text. In some cases, more than one copy is included, if it is significant because of dialect or date. As such, the DOE Web Corpus represents about four million words of Old English and another million words of Latin, or about six times the collected works of Shakespeare.
Compiled as part of the Dictionary of Old English project at the University of Toronto, the texts in the Corpus are SGML encoded and are fully conformant with the 1994 Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) Guidelines. The interface for the Dictionary of Old English Web Corpus was developed by the Humanities Text Initiative at the University of Michigan.
