Abstract:
In the last decade, we have seen an increase of corpus-based approaches within the Historical Linguistics field, a domain in which approaches based on selected examples have traditionally been predominant. This presentation will discuss the importance of specific data models than enable quantitative corpus methods in Historical Linguistics research. Through the discussion of a particular use case, I will address information representation strategies by means of a TEI-compliant modelisation of the critical apparatus in order to enable its quantitative analysis in general, and the study of linguistic variation among witnesses in particular. The talk will also include a brief presentation of resources that facilitate the creation and exploitation of historical corpora, highlighting its advantages and deficiencies.
