## Overview

This corpus was created from the [French Revolution Digital Archive](https://frda.stanford.edu/) (FRDA), a digitization of the Archives Parlementaires (AP) made available through the efforts of Stanford University Libraries and the Bibliothèque nationale de France. This data contains the FRDA's OCR-generated text from a subset of speeches made during the National Constituent Assembly, the first legislative body of the French Revolution. Each speech is augmented with date correction, speaker disambiguation, legislative role markers, political affiliation, and class membership. See the [column guide](#column-guide) for more detail. Also provided is the topic model trained from these speeches and used in the PNAS article.
