dc.description	The Disasters corpus in classical Arabic sources (DiCCAS) is designed to allow historians to compare different accounts and narratives of disasters in a variety of classical Arabic sources. The corpus encompasses a diverse range of materials, including the Qur’an and the ḥadīth collections Saḥīḥ al-Bukhārī and Saḥīḥ Muslim, as well as several significant historical works, such as al-Ṭabarī’s Kitāb Tārīkh al-rusul wa-l-mulūk and Ibn Taghrībirdī’s Kitāb al-Nujūm al-zāhira fī mulūk Miṣr wa-l-Qāhira. The corpus also incorporates adab texts by al-Jāhiẓ, notably his Rasāʾil, and Ibn al-Jawzī’s al-Mudhish. The DiCCAS corpus is encoded using the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) Guidelines which gives the structure of the corpus and marks disaster related words. It is also available in vertical format, which adds linguistic annotations, i.e. tokenisation, lemmatisations and PoS tagging.
