The Notion of �holy� in Ancient Armenian Texts from the Fifth Century CE A Comparative Approach Using Digital Tools and Methods - Bielefeld Bielefeld University Press 2022 - 1 electronic resource (380 p.) - Digital Humanities Research 5 .
Open Access
Religious studies have long discussed the comparative notion of �holy� beyond religious, cultural, and linguistic boundaries. In this book, Thomas Jurczyk conducts a diachronic comparison of the meaning and application of two notions and their related word fields that are commonly associated with a broader comparative notion of holy, namely the Ancient Armenian term �surb� and its related words and the English word field associated with �holy�. To compare these two semantic fields, his methodological approach operates on the principle of distributional semantics and applies, among others, tools and methods from the field of corpus linguistics.
