Introduction
The Icelandic Parsed Historical Corpus (IcePaHC) is a project that aims to construct a diachronic corpus with samples of written Icelandic from all periods from the 12th century to modern times. The corpus is mostly compatible with the corpora of historical English developed at UPenn.

To experiment with the 0.1 preview version of the Icelandic Parsed Historical Corpus (IcePaHC) you can download the following zip-file, which contains the raw data of the corpus in labeled bracketing format.
- Icelandic Parsed Historical Corpus (IcePaHC). Version 1.1. LGPL. (zip, X KB)
The corpus, as well as software developed as part of the IcePaHC project, is released under an (LGPL) license, to ensure compatibility with other LGPL-licensed NLP tools, notably the IceNLP toolkit, which is used extensively in the development of the corpus.
The corpus is free as in beer and as in speech. We recommend that people cite the latest released version when using the corpus for research to ensure that results can be replicated. However, the most up-to-date version and information on the current state of development can be accessed at our version control repository at Github.
Getting started using the corpus
Since the corpus uses the labeled bracketing format it is compatible with programs that assume such annotation. We recommend using the CorpusSearch program developed by Beth Randall at UPenn.
