PaCQL: A new type of treebank search for the digital humanities

This article describes PaCQL (Parsed Corpus Query Language), a novel query language for carrying out research on parsed historical corpora, an important task for the digital humanities. PaCQL implements and enhances many of the most important features of earlier software that is designed for computa...
