    [My apologies for any cross-postings]

    For a number of years I've used corpora in classes related (at least
    partially) to historical linguistics. I'm working on a paper right now in
    which I'd like to provide a general overview of what others have done in the
    same area, but I haven't found much. Is anyone aware of websites or seminal
    journal articles that deal with the use of corpora in TEACHING historical
    linguistics? If there's sufficient interest, I'd be happy to post a summary
    of responses.

    Thanks in advance,

    Mark Davies
