The HistCorp files
-------------------
The texts from Fornsvenska textbanken on the HistCorp page are a
subset of the texts included by Fornsvenska textbanken
(http://project2.sol.lu.se/fornsvenska/), and are provided in a plain
text format ('txt'), and in a tokenised format ('tok').

The plain text files have been semi-automatically stripped from
metadata, and extratextual information such as page numbering,
footnotes etc. Metadata is instead given in a TEI-compatible format at
the top of each file. When assigning metadata, the number of tokens
has been calculated based on the tokenised version of the file.

In the tokenised files, the texts are split into one token on each
line. Tokenisation was performed using the UDPipe tokeniser
(https://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/udpipe) with the Swedish language model
provided as a baseline model in the CoNLL17 Shared Task
(swedish-ud-2.0-conll17-170315.udpipe).

Size: 44 texts, with a total of 1,409,578 tokens.

Genres: mixed.
