A Lecture by Andrea Bozzi, ESF-SCH Exploratory Workshop in Berlin, October 19-21, 2011

Dr. Andrea Bozzi attended the ESF-SCH Exploratory Workshop "Methods of Digital Philology for the Study of Early and Classical Arabic Language" (Berlin, 19-21 October, 2011).

Dr. Bozzi has outlined the activities carried out within the ERC project "Greek into Arabic". The paper ("Greek into Arabic: a computational system for the pseudo-Theology of Aristotle. Methodology and samples"), in collaboration with the P.I. of "Greek into Arabic" Cristina D'Ancona, highlights the technical component of the web based computational system created at ILC-CNR. The system aims at managing Greek and Arabic parallel texts. A special module to encode and annotate digital images of manuscripts has also been presented in Berlin. It allows the user to easily find textual variants and to record them into a critical apparatus. Although not yet a full-fledged product, the system is at an advanced stage of implementation, in particular as for the tools for indexes and concordances of parallel texts.
