After collecting over the past years a substantial number of nominal compounds from Latin authors spanning from the archaic age to the late antiquity, a graph database has been created. This database is capable of classifying the types of compounds, showing the members they are composed of, and specifying in which works and by which authors they are used. The database can be interrogated through a series of queries that return structured data. The analysis of these data makes it possible to draw interesting insights not only about the specific occurrences of certain compounds within the examined corpus, but also to verify whether there are relationships linking literary genres to specific types of compounds.

Abstract

After collecting over the past years a substantial number of nominal compounds from Latin authors spanning from the archaic age to the late antiquity, a graph database has been created. This database is capable of classifying the types of compounds, showing the members they are composed of, and specifying in which works and by which authors they are used. The database can be interrogated through a series of queries that return structured data. The analysis of these data makes it possible to draw interesting insights not only about the specific occurrences of certain compounds within the examined corpus, but also to verify whether there are relationships linking literary genres to specific types of compounds.
