I learned a great deal about Latin lexicography and the information made available in the Thesaurus Linguae Latinae during my fellowship last year. On Thursday, November 16, I’m leading a practical workshop on the TLL to share some of this knowledge with other academics—how to decode its typography, how to mine the bibliographic information in its Index, and how to understand the organization of an article’s various sections. The workshop, hosted in Butler Library, should be helpful not just for Columbia’s classicists but also for those working with Latin texts in other fields, including Philosophy, History, and Comparative Literature.
