Description

The UDante treebank is based on the Latin texts of Dante Alighieri, taken from the DanteSearch corpus, originally created at the University of Pisa, Italy.

It is a treebank of Latin language, more precisely of literary Medieval Latin (XIVth century).

This treebank includes 1 721 sentences (57 242 syntactic words) and consists of literary texts (letters, treatises, poetry). The treebank is licensed under the terms of CC BY-NC-SA 3.0.

UDante includes the following Latin texts (mostly) by Dante Alighieri, or disputedly attibuted to him:

The syntactic annotation of the UDante treebank has been created through a manual annotation process performed in the context of a collaboration between the University of Pisa (responsible: Mirko Tavoni) and the LiLa: Linking Latin project at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Milan, Italy (PI: Marco Passarotti). The annotation process was co-ordinated by Flavio Massimiliano Cecchini, Giovanni Moretti and Rachele Sprugnoli (all based at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore).

Acknowledgments

The LiLa project has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme – Grant Agreement No. 769994.

We wish to thank all the annotators of the UDante treebank: Daniela Corbetta, Federica Favero, Federica Gamba, Martina de Laurentiis, Giulia Pedonese, Andrea Peverelli and Elena Vagnoni.
