The Electronic Corpus of Historical Documents of the Hinterland (CE-DOHS - Corpus Eletrônico de Documentos Históricos do Sertão), a pioneer in the Brazilian Northeast, brings together an extensive base of documents which was collected for the study of the history of Brazilian Portuguese and has already surpassed the territory of the Hinterlands ('sertões'). It is presented in two sets of texts edited in xml format, stemming from their semi-diplomatic edition: set 1 - composed of manuscripts produced between 1808 and 2000 by individuals born in Brazil from 1756 onwards, and of speech samples from Brazilians, recorded in the 1990s in Bahia, and set 2 - composed of manuscripts produced between 1640 and 1808 by different ethnic groups from Brazil from 1590 onwards, This latter set additionally comprises manuscripts produced by Portuguese settlers living in Brazil in the first 150 years of colonization. The CE-DOHS makes available to the consultant a corpus with a total of approximately 5,000 documents and about 2.3 million words for free. It has therefore reached the goal set when it was created in 2010, consolidating itself as a text bank with careful sociohistorical control and with interfaces for data exploration.
