Research in 19th-century book history, sociology of literature, andquantitative literary history is blocked by the absence of a collection ofnovels which captures the diversity of literary production. We introduce acorpus of 75 Victorian novels sampled from a 15,322-record bibliography ofnovels published between 1837 and 1901 in the British Isles. This corpus, theCommon Library, is distinctive in the following way: the shares of novels inthe corpus associated with sociologically important subgroups match the sharesin the broader population. For example, the proportion of novels written bywomen in 1880s in the corpus is approximately the same as in the population.Although we do not, in this particular paper, claim that the corpus is arepresentative sample in the familiar sense--a sample is representative if"characteristics of interest in the population can be estimated from the samplewith a known degree of accuracy" (Lohr 2010, p. 3)--we are confident that thecorpus will be useful to researchers. This is because existingcorpora--frequently convenience samples--are conspicuously misaligned with thepopulation of published novels. They tend to over-represent novels published inspecific periods and novels by men. The Common Library may be used alongside orin place of these non-representative convenience corpora.
