This release is an update from the previous release in two major ways:

  1. brochmand_sabbati_sanctificatio_sommer.txt and brochmand_sabbati_sanctificatio_vinter.txt have been revised to exclude header, footer, and marginalia in order to avoid noise and be consistent with the other texts in the corpus.

  2. hemmingsen_postilla.txt, luther_husspostille.txt, and medelby_ungdommens_postil.txt have all been split up into smaller components, since the books from which the data were derived were originally bound with multiple smaller parts (such as winter, summer, and festal parts). To the extent these could be identified, the smaller separate files have replaced the single large file to enable better comparative studies of individual parts. If author based comparative studies are desired, this can easily be achieved by merging the relevant texts.

First release of the collection of Danish postils from the early modern period. The text recognition is suitable for digital methods, though it is far from perfect and require thorough cleaning to use.
