PLANTAS Dataset

Description

The dataset "PLANTAS" (“Historia de las plantas”, Vol.1) were written using a quill-pen by Bernardo de Cienfuegos, one of the most outstanding Spanish botanists in the XVII century. The book was writing mainly in Spanish, but a significant number of words and full sentences are in Latin and many other languages. The originals of PLANTAS are currently available at the "Biblioteca Nacional de España", and a digital reproduction of it can be found at the "Biblioteca Digital Hispánica" (http://bdh-rd.bne.es/viewer.vm?id=0000140162). In this dataset, only the first volume of PLANTAS (Mss 3357, with 1,035 pages and around 20,000 handwritten text lines) was considered.
