Finding the accurate date of texts is one of the most puzzling challenges in the study of Spanish aurisecular theater. Stylometry, the computer technique centered on the comparison of texts based on their writing, which has been successfully used in recent years to solve authorship questions, can also serve to shed light on this issue. In this…[Read more]

Claramonte is one of the playwrights who has had the most unusual fate in our theatrical heritage. Reviled by early scholars as a plagiarist, recaster and, ultimately, a second-order author, in recent decades he has reemerged as a possible author of capital works of our theatre. Using stylometric techniques that have been proven to be effective…[Read more]

This article proposes the inclusion in Lope’s repertoire of La francesa Laura, a comedia preserved in an anonymous manuscript of the BNE, never before related to the playwright. The investigation started thanks to the results of the process in the Transkribus and ETSO platforms, which pointed out the close relationship of the lexicon with the…[Read more]

La datación supone una de las cuestiones con más interrogantes en el estudio del teatro aurisecular español. La estilometría, técnica informática basada en la comparación de textos en función de sus usos escriturales y que está utilizándose con aparente acierto en los últimos años para arrojar luz sobre el problema de la autoría, puede servir…[Read more]

Claramonte es uno de los dramaturgos que más extraña suerte ha corrido de nuestro patrimonio teatral. Vilipendiado por los primeros estudiosos como plagiario, refundidor y, en definitiva, autor de segundo orden, en las últimas décadas ha resurgido como posible responsable de obras capitales de nuestro teatro. A través del empleo de técnicas estil…[Read more]

La refundición supone un fenómeno recurrente en el teatro aurisecular español. Existen numerosos casos en los que un dramaturgo parte de un texto previo y lo modifica para conformar una nueva obra reutilizando un cierto número de versos. En ocasiones, el paso del tiempo confunde la obra primigenia con la refundición y resulta complicado esta…[Read more]

Un elevado porcentaje de impresos y manuscritos teatrales del periodo aurisecular no ha sido nunca transcrito en un formato analógico ni, por supuesto, digital. Es imposible, por tanto, emplear estos documentos para realizar búsquedas de nuestro interés o para los valiosos análisis informáticos (estilometría, topic modelling, detección de sentim…[Read more]

The Wenceslas Bible, created for the Bohemian King Wenceslas IV. around 1390-1400, is the first largely complete German-language translation of the Hebrew Bible after the Latin Vulgate, combined with elaborate and highly valuable illustrations. Therefore, it is one of the most precious cultural heritage objects of the Austrian National Library.…[Read more]

The web service correspSearch aggregates correspondence metadata from digital and printed editions (or scholarly catalogues of correspondence) and offers them for central search and retrieval. The web service is based mainly on the Correspondence Metadata Interchange Format (CMIF), which is being developed within the TEI Correspondence SIG. The…[Read more]

The project establishes a co-operative network and creates a representative digital collection of already edited and printed 18th-century letters. As an infrastructure project in the DFG funding program “Digitisation and Indexing”, PDB18 does not itself pursue a research question of its own, but will enable research on epistolary exchange in the…[Read more]

Research into emotions is a developing field within Assyriology, and NLP tools for Akkadian texts offers new perspectives on the data. We use PMI-based word embeddings to explore the relationship between parts of the body and emotions. Using data downloaded from Oracc, we ask which parts of the body were semantically linked to emotions. We do this…[Read more]
