Webinaire Database of Latin Dictionaries

Nous avons le plaisir de vous annoncer qu’un webinaire sur la Database of Latin Dictionaries (DLD) sera organisé ce 9 février à 11h du matin.

La Database of Latin Dictionaries constitue une base de données comprenant un grand nombre de dictionnaires latins mis en ligne au bénéfice des chercheurs et des étudiants. Cette base de données est progressivement amplifiée et elle comprend différents types de dictionnaires: dictionnaires bilingues ou plurilingues qui proposent les traductions des mots latins dans les langues vernaculaires, dictionnaires de recherche de haut niveau, dictionnaires historiques.

Ce mercredi 9 février à 11 h, nous donnerons une courte présentation en ligne de cette base de données en français.

Cette présentation est destinée aux bibliothécaires, aux chercheurs et aux étudiants.

Il n’est nul besoin d’installer un programme spécifique (la présentation se déroule via Microsoft Teams). Il suffit d’avoir accès à un ordinateur avec une connexion internet, et d’activer le son. Nous vous recommandons de couper le son de votre micro durant la présentation afin d’éviter les bruits de fond dérangeants.

  • Qui ? Le personnel de la bibliothèque, le personnel académique et les étudiants concernés.
  • Quand? Le mercredi 9 février à 11h.
  • Durée: environ 15 min.
  • Contenu: Une présentation de la base de données « Database of Latin Dictionaries » suivie d’une session de Questions/Réponses
  • Comment? En nous envoyant simplement un courriel de confirmation avant le lundi 7 février 15h.

DLD has been updated!

The Database of Latin Dictionaries has been updated and now also contains the Romanisches etymologisches Wörterbuch (REW) by Wilhelm Meyer-Lübke (Heidelberg, 1935).

The REW is an essential tool for scholars who want to discover the way in which Latin words have survived up to the present day in the Romance languages. Despite its age, the REW remains a fundamental reference work for Romance linguists, as well as for scholars of Late Antique and Medieval Latin. The electronic version is based on the third and last edition, published a year before Meyer-Lübke’s death, and includes the addenda and corrigenda which can be found in the appendix.
