Popis: | The development of bilingual dictionaries to medieval translations presents diverse difficulties. These result from two types of philological circumstances: a) the asymmetry between the source language and the target language; and b) the varying available sources of both the original and translated texts. In particular, the full critical edition of Tihova of Constantine of Preslav's Uchitel'noe evangelie ('Didactic Gospel') gives a relatively good idea of the Old Church Slavonic translation but not of its Greek source text. This is due to the fact that Cramer's edition of the catenae - used as the parallel text in it - is based on several codices whose text does not fully coincide with the Slavonic. This leads to the addition of the newly-discovered parallels from Byzantine manuscripts and John Chrysostom's homilies. Our approach to these issues is a step-wise process with two main goals: a) to facilitate the philological annotation of input data and b) to consider the manifestations of the mentioned challenges, first, separately in order to simplify their resolution, and, then, in their combination. We demonstrate how we model various types of asymmetric translation correlates and the variability resulting from the pluralism of sources. We also demonstrate how all these constructions are being modelled and processed into the final indices. Our approach is designed with generalisation in mind and is intended to be applicable also for other translations from Greek into Old Church Slavonic.
