Corpus
Linguistics, Ancient Languages, and Older Language Periods
A pre-session at Corpus
Linguistics 2001
29 March 2001, Lancaster University, UK
The aim of this workshop is for researchers working on various ancient languages or historical language periods both to introduce their data sets and to share their methodologies and problems. In line with the overall aims of the conference, it is hoped that this exchange will lead to new perspectives on, and solutions to, shared problems, and perhaps to new cross-linguistic or methodological collaborations.
