Description

UD_Latin-CIRCSE is a repository of treebanks featuring Latin texts natively annotated at the CIRCSE Research Centre in Milan (https://centridiricerca.unicatt.it/circse/en.html) following the Universal Dependencies (UD) (https://universaldependencies.org) annotation scheme. The repository includes prose and poetry texts from different periods.

This treebank repository is a work in progress collective endeavour. Presently, it contains the following annotated texts: Seneca Hercules Furens, Seneca Agamemnon, Tacitus Germania.

Seneca Hercules Furens

Hercules Furens is a tragedy written by Seneca the younger in 1st century CE. The source text was received with tokenisation, and annotation with respect to lemmatisation, POS tagging, and morphological features from the Opera Latina corpus built by the LASLA laboratory in Liège. In few cases, the received annotation with regard to POS tag and morphological annotation was modified during the syntactic annotation; deviations from the received annotation are detailed in the file SenecaYounger_HercF_LASLA_CIRCSE. The syntactic annotation was performed manually at CIRCSE, and follows the UD scheme. The text (7714 tokens, 555 sentences) was enhanced with the annotation of the speakers to whom each sentence is attributed. This annotation, performed manually at CIRCSE, is formatted as a comment in the conllu file following the comment line reporting the text of the sentence, as exemplified in what follows:
