project: The electronic Old Bailey Sessions proceedings, c.1670-1778
Grant Holder: Professor Tim Hitchcock
The aim was to make available in a fully searchable form, the full text of the Proceedings of the Old Bailey, 1674 to 1834, in combination with original page images. The Proceedings and the website contain 25 million words of transcripts of approximately 100,000 felony trials held at the Old Bailey between 1674 and 1834. This text has been transcribed and marked up to allow both free text searching, and structured analysis using bespoke statistical tools. [read more]

The Collected Works brings together for the first time in a single volume all the works currently attributed to Middleton. [read more]
