Digital Lexis, and BeyondSelected Papers from the Workshop „Digital Lexis, and Beyond”

|
This volume of proceedings contains selected papers from the workshop “Digital Lexis, and Beyond” that was held as part of the “45th Austrian Linguistics Conference” in December 2019. The individual papers collected in this volume cover a rather big range of diverse topics within the limits set by the suggested topical bounds of “lexis”. The contributions discuss and investigate digital “tools” and “methods” and show different foci of attention: the documentation of language usage in Greek, Aramaic, Arabic, Austrian German Dialects, and their possibilities of digital access, as well as the exploration of linguistic phenomena, such as diachronic change, the appearance of new linguistic varieties, or the detection of sentiments in literature. All the papers have been peer reviewed (according to a double-blind peer review procedure) by specialists in their respective fields, so that the editors are confident of their academic quality and usefulness for future research in “digital lexicography” and “corpus linguistics”. |

Selected Papers from the Workshop „Digital Lexis, and Beyond”
45th Austrian Linguistics Conference
Dec. 2019
This paper aims at demonstrating the advantages of the research on predominantly Greek loanwords in the Rabbinic literature, as employed in the Digital Dictionary of Loanwords in the Midrash Genesis Rabbah (DLGenR). This line of research can contribute to further elucidating a number of issues concerning language usage in the cultural context of Graeco-Roman Palestine and relevant lexicographical practice – to the benefit not only of Rabbinic studies but also of linguistics and historical disciplines. In particular, the present survey explores the etymological criteria which should be fulfilled by a historical dictionary specialized in borrowings and attempts to provide a maximal inventory of their deep encoding in electronic dictionaries (according to TEI Lex-0)
