A Computer-Assisted Study of the Vocabulary of the Early Modern English Biblical Translations

在1994年的初步研究中，研究者走访了几个拥有早期现代英语圣经翻译版本和专著的图书馆，以获得这些版本和专著的复印件。他还编辑了《给罗马人的活塞》(1526)的电子文本和威廉·廷代尔的《圣马修福音》(1525)的片段。在工作过程中，他发现了廷代尔对词语的一些特殊用法，他在一篇关于正在崛起的一代的文章《自我解释同义词的起源和谱系》中报道了这一点。1995年，他在日本英语文学协会第67届会议上读到了一篇论文《同义词的起源和谱系》，而世界站在了《圣经》的授权版本中。他还按字母顺序列出了《牛津英语词典》中出现廷代尔语录的词条。他为《正在崛起的一代》专栏《国外的新趋势》写了四篇文章，报道了英国英语圣经研究的进展。1996年，他发表了一篇文章《英语圣经的起源和谱系》，而世界则站在《圣经》的授权版本中。他发现，在韦斯利(1770)和诺亚·韦伯斯特(1833)利用英文版《圣经》光盘出版的《圣经》之后的两个版本中，《当世界站在一边》这一表达被传递给了后来的两个版本。在担任助学金的三年任期内，他取得了很好的效果，发表了10篇关于《英语圣经》和《牛津英语词典》的文章。他正计划将上述文章的英文版投稿给《廷代尔学会》杂志。

In 1994 for the preliminary research, the researcher visited several libraries which possess the editions of and monographs on Early Modern English Biblical translations in order to get photocopies of them. And he edited an electric text of The Pistle unto the Romans (1526) and the fragment of The Gospel of S.Mathew (1525) by William Tyndale from the facsimile editions. In the course of the work he found some peculiar use of words by Tyndale, which he reported in an article 'The Origin and Lineage of Self-Interpreting Pair of Synonyms' on The Rising Generation.In 1995 he read a paper 'The Origin and Lineage of the expression 'while the world standeth' seen in The Authorized Version of the English Bible' at the 67th conference of The English Literary Society of Japan. And he built an alphabetical list of the headwords in The Oxford English Dictionary for which quotations from Tyndale appear. He wrote four articles for the column 'the new trend abroad' on The Rising Generation, reporting what is in progress in the study of the English Bible in the United Kingdom.In 1996 he published an article 'The Origin and Lineage of the expression 'while the world standeth' seen in The Authorized Version of the English Bible'. And he found that the expression 'while the world standeth' is passed on to the two later editions of the English Bible by Wesley (1770) and Noah Webster (1833), making use of Bible in English on CD-Rom.In the three-year term for Grant-In-Aid he has achieved good results, publishing ten articles on the English Bible and The Oxford English Dictionary. He is planning to contribute an English version of the article mentioned above to the journal of The Tyndale Society.
