Dear List members !

I got a wise advice to send the answers I got to my
"corpus degign appeal" through the list.

This is the first part of my "Rykov list"

-------------

Here are some (all) answers I got after my "corpus design" appeal
to the list before 2 Jan 99. I hope these references will help you.

The additions are WELCOME!

The books mentioned below:

(
Gerhard Leitner, Corpus design - problems and suggested solutions. In
Leitner (ed.), <italic>New directions in English Language
Corpora</italic>, Berlin & New York 1992

Douglas Biber, Representativeness in corpus design. <italic>Literary and
Linguistic Computing </italic>8, 4:243-257

Greame Kennedy, <italic>An Introduction to Corpus Linguistics</italic>,
London & New York: Longman 1998, pp 70-5.
)

Hi,

I'm not quite sure what exactly you're looking for, but I can give you three links, the first about
corpus linguistics in general

http://www.ruf.rice.edu/~barlow/corpus.html

the other two more specific: the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI)

http://www.uic.edu/orgs/tei/

and the Corpus Encoding Standard (CES)

http://www.cs.vassar.edu/CES/

Hope that helps,
Arne Fitschen

============================

If it is possible
- I'd like to have the X copies of the pages mentioned above
(in Xerox copies - or in MS DOS PC readable form)?

they are not available here.

Actually I need only pages that refer to the "corpus design"
subject.

The info found in Internet is welcome as well - we have 386 PC (gift of Soros)
with e-mail only here
