Collecting Words and Putting Them in Place

Lexicographical Traditions and Their Agendas

When: Thursday, 15 May 2025, 9:00 am – 7:00 pm CET, and Friday, 16 May 2025, 9:30 am – 5:30 pm CET

Where: Warburgstraße 26, 20354 Hamburg

The workshop aims at discovering the hidden universals that inform lexicographical writings beyond one specific language or period of time. To achieve this, we will adopt a comparative, multidisciplinary approach. The workshop will gather scholars from different disciplines to discuss lexicographical writings produced in a wide range of cultures and settings. We aim at covering Arabic, Greek, Sumerian, Akkadian, Siberian, Tamil, spanning from the fourth millennium BCE to the second millennium CE.

Organiser: Nicole Brisch, Christian Brockmann, José Maksimczuk, Beáta Wagner-Nagy, and Eva Wilden (University of Hamburg)
