Lemmas in Dialogue: Linking the L.A.S.L.A. Corpus to the LiLa Knowledge Base

This paper presents the process of interlinking the L.A.S.L.A. corpus to the LiLa Knowledge Base, which makes the L.A.S.L.A. texts and the other linguistic resources for Latin linked to the LiLa Knowledge Base interoperable. First, we describe the L.A.S.L.A. corpus, its linguistic annotation and the platforms available to search it. Secondly, we provide an overview of the architecture of the LiLa Knowledge Base and the linguistic resources currently linked to. The second part of the paper focuses on the process of linking the corpus to the Knowledge Base, discussing a few issues of harmonization regarding the (meta)linguistic information they provide. Finally, we present two queries on the LiLa Knowledge Base to show an example of the possibilities for Latin scholars disclosed by making the L.A.S.L.A. corpus interoperable with other linguistic resources for Latin.
