The differences in Ancient Greek and Latin motion verbs as a way to understand the conceptualisation of reality in the two cultures

该项目旨在创建PrevNet，这是一个关于拉丁语和古希腊语前缀运动动词的新数字资源。PrevNeedles包含动词及其在文本中的用法的详细语言信息。本文将从比较的角度，分析拉丁语和古希腊语动词的语言特性的差异，并将它们联系起来，以加深我们对两种文化的理解。我将考虑的历史时期包括公元前世纪和公元8世纪之间，大约。前置动词是附在动词性基础上的前置介词或副词，当动词性基础上有前置动词时，它就成为前置动词。例如，英语中的circum-navigate是一个由动词基navigate和前动词circumm-组成的动词，后者来自拉丁语circum-around。运动动词是用来描述运动事件的动词。我将考虑拉丁语动词基础，如eo，gradior'go'，venio'come'，navigo'sail'，volo'fly'，以及古希腊语对应的动词基础，如eimi，baino'go'，erkhomai'come'，pleo'sail'，petomai'fly'。我将分析不同领域的运动（例如，运动在陆地上，运动在水上，运动在天空中）。创建PrevNeedles允许我回答以下三个学科领域的研究问题：1.历史语言学-古希腊和拉丁语preverbed运动动词的语义如何受到其preverb的影响？其他特征--体/动作性和空间关系--如何与句法结构和语义相互作用，以及这种作用如何随时间变化？2. digitalhumanities -什么方法框架最适合创建PrevNet，以便它结合语料库数据的定量信息，并可以在未来扩展？3.文化历史-古希腊语和拉丁语的preverbed运动动词之间有什么区别？它们揭示了古地中海地区希腊语社区和拉丁语社区之间的什么联系？

This project aims at creating PrevNet, a new digital resource on prefixed verbs of motion in Latin and Ancient Greek. PrevNetwill contain detailed linguistic information on verbs and their usage in the texts. In a comparative perspective, I will analyse differences in the linguistic properties of the verbs between Latin and Ancient Greek and connect them to deepen our understanding of the two cultures. I will consider the historical period included between the 8th century BCE and the 8th century AD, approximately. Preverbs are prepositions or adverbs which attach onto a verbal base, preceding it. When a verbal base possesses a preverb, it becomes a preverbed verb. For instance, the English circum-navigateis a preverbed verb, composed of the verbal base navigateand the preverbcircum-, which comes from Latin circum-'around'. Verbs of motion are devoted to the description of motion events. I will consider Latin verbal bases such as eo, gradior'go', venio'come', navigo'sail', volo'fly', and Ancient Greek counterparts such as eimi, baino'go', erkhomai'come', pleo'sail', petomai'fly'. I will analyse different areas of motion (e.g. motion on land, motion on water, motion in the sky).The creation of PrevNetwill allow me to answer the following research questions across three disciplinary fields 1.historical linguistics - how is the semantics of Ancient Greek and Latin preverbed motion verbs affected by their preverbs? How do other characteristics -aspect/actionality and spatial rela-tions -interact with syntactic structures and semantics, and how does this change over time?2.digitalhumanities - what methodological framework is most suitable to create PrevNet, so that it combines quantitative information from corpus data and can be extended in the future?3.cultural history - what differences occur between Ancient Greek and Latin preverbed motion verbs? What do they reveal about the contact between the Greek-speaking and the Latin-speak-ing communities in the ancient Mediterranean area?
