The Language of Landscape: Reading the Anglo-Saxon Countryside

"The aim of the LangScape project is to make accessible over the World Wide Web a rich body of material relating to the English Countryside of a thousand years ago and more: detailed descriptions by those who lived in and worked the Anglo-Saxon landscape. The proposed resource - an electronic corpus of Anglo-Saxon boundary clauses with extensive XML mark-up - will be a powerful research tool with applications within a broad range of academic disciplines. It will also be designed with a view to its potential ongoing development for public and schools use" (from project web site; please see for more details).
