DESCRIPTION:Frank Hentschel\nTitle:\nHow to Create a Historically Reliable
  Corpus?\n\nAbstract:\nAs digital methods allow more and more quantitative
  approaches even with respect to historical research\, corpus studies are 
 gaining immensely in significance. But how to create corpora that allow ro
 bust hypotheses and eventually reliable conclusions? How many sources do w
 e need? Ho must they be selected? What mistakes need to be avoided? The se
 lection of sources has a strong influence on the research results and need
 s\, therefore\, to be reflected. From a historical point of view\, the con
 struction of a corpus is not just a starting point but an essential part o
 f the research itself. My talk will address these issues from an historiog
 raphical perspective.\n\nBiography: \nFrank Hentschel studied Musicology\
