Introduction
This dataset contains the Dutch subset of DraCor (Drama Corpus), edited by Lucas van der Deijl as part of his Researcher-in-Residence project at the KB.
From February to October 2024, Lucas van der Deijl worked as a Researcher-in-Residence at the KB, National Library of the Netherlands. The aim of this residency was to prepare the early modern theatre editions available in the DBNL for computational studies of early modern Dutch drama. This resulted in a corpus of 180 early modern Dutch plays, fully encoded and annotated in TEI XML according to the standards prescribed by the international theatre database developed by the Drama Corpora Project (DraCor).
