“Computer Assisted Translation of Ancient Texts: The Babylonian Talmud Case Study.”
Alessia Bellusci · ARCA (Università Ca' Foscari Venezia) · 2015
The article introduces some of the features characterizing the Computer Assisted Translation web application developed to support the translation of the Babylonian Talmud (BT) in Italian. The BT is a late antique Jewish anthological corpus, which, as other ancient texts, presents a number of hurdles related to its intrinsic linguistic and philological nature. The article illustrates the solutions adopted in the system, with particular emphasis on the Translation Memory and the translation suggestion component.
