Funded Activity Summary

Linguistic Structures and Identity in a Multicultural Society: Idiolect and Social Dialect in the Zenon Archive. This project offers a unique insight into the linguistic facet of multiculturalism in Hellenistic Egypt. It will be the first study to combine newly developed electronic tools with existing resources in order to interpret linguistic structures and identity. The distinctive language of individuals within the speech community (idiolects) and the distinctive language of social groups within that speech community (social dialects) will be analysed. The anticipated outcome will be a powerful and transferable model for interpreting individual and group identity in Greek and other languages.
