TEXORO

Textual searches across Golden Age drama, prose and poetry

TEXORO enables textual searches across Golden Age drama, prose and poetry in an expanding literary corpus.

The search engine can locate words, exact phrases and wildcard patterns, and it also supports advanced queries combining terms, proximity conditions and filters by title, genre, traditional attribution, stylometric attribution or textual condition. In this way, TEXORO supports both targeted searches and more complex explorations of the presence, distribution and relationships of words or expressions across the corpus.
