Digital Tools in Linguistic Studies: Unlocking Language Heritage

The intersection of digitalization and lexicography has significantly transformed the world of dictionaries and language resources, a field of intense activity for the Accademia della Crusca, the major italian institution dedicated to the Italian language, its history, grammar, lexicography, and culture. In this contribution, we delve into the linguistic treasures nowadays also preserved digitally, and no longer only in paper form, by the Accademia , including books, manuscripts, and documents (2.0 Academy Digital Heritage Preservation – Scaffali Digitali). We will also point out some projects still in progress (3.0 Work in progress) and other tools (4.0 Other useful Tools).
