Description

The book The Alienist annotated, part of the literary portion of Porttinari.

The literary portion currently includes the annotation of The Little Prince and The Alienist books, which were automatically annotated by a state of the art parser (Portparser.v2) and manually revised, as reported by Duran et al. (2026a, 2026b). Together, they add up to 2,328 sentences. Interestingly, The Little Prince book is the same that was also annotated with Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR) (Banarescu et al., 2013), allowing the study of both syntactic and semantic characteristics.
