The CRISCO-HT portal provides an ergonomic way to search and read the texts of corpora developed by researchers at the CRISCO Lab at the University of Caen, Normandy, and was created thanks to the generous funding of the HIGH-TECH project by the Normandy Region and led by Professor Pierre Larrivée. The text collections are calibrated by genre and geographical provenance, lemmatised and syntactically annotated, using the semi-automated workflow developed by research engineer Rayan Ziane (see Ziane and Romanova 2023). They thus support research into linguistic and cultural evolution through time.

Published in November 2023, the CHRONIQUES corpus is a collection of historical narratives produced in Normandy from the 12th to 19th centuries, with one text per century ( see full list of texts, from where they can be individually read). Searches can be performed for individual elements or collocations using forms, lemma, parts of speech or syntactic function (see the Search tab). Further information on how to use the site is available under Documentation tab.
