Abstract

This paper presents a historical parallel corpus of languages spoken in metropolitan France. It consists of a collection of versions of the Parable of the Prodigal Son, collected during the 19th century. The paper aims to present the interest of such a corpus, its constitution—through XML/TEI encoding, semi-automatic alignment and projection on linguistic maps—and its potential uses for the study of these low-resource languages.
