Classical Greek Corpus

Ancient and classical Greek (grc) text segments drawn from the open scholarly corpora of the Perseus Digital Library and the OpenGreekAndLatin project — the classical/secular comparand within the NuBerea corpus estate, alongside its biblical, Second-Temple, and patristic Greek collections. Coverage runs from the archaic canon (Homer, Hesiod, the tragedians, the historians, Plato, Aristotle) through Hellenistic and imperial prose (Plutarch, Lucian, Galen), including scholia and technical writers. Each segment retains a CTS URN provenance pointer back to the source TEI edition.

The corpus is fully rebuildable from the public OGL/Perseus TEI sources. The complete technical specification (schemas, join contracts, per-config detail, provenance) is available in the gated SPEC.md alongside this card.
