摘要：The Lampeter Corpus of Early Modern English Tracts, compiled at the
Chemnitz University of Technology, has recently been completed and
will shortly be available through ICAME and the Oxford Text Archive.
The following article gives a brief outline of the corpus set-up and its
coding conventions, and places it within its historical and corpus-linguistic
background. For a more detailed account of the corpus, see the manual
of information, ‘Life is ruled and governed by opinion’: The Lampeter
Corpus of Early Modern English Tracts (Schmied, Claridge and Siemund
forthcoming), which will be published by ICAME this autumn.
