Church Slavonic разумъ. Studies for a Multilingual Lexicon of Religious and Philosophical-Theological Words
The paper aims at defining the meaning of Church Slavonic разумъ as it emerges from medieval and pre-modern Eastern Slavic sources dating from the 12th to 18th century, on the basis of the historical section of Russian National Corpus. Compared with the entries of old Slavonic and Church Slavonic dictionaries, the query results allow a more exact understanding of the semantics of the word and of its contexts of use, which is useful in the determination of Italian equivalents. So the article confirms the relevance of this methodological approach in understanding the key concepts of East Slavic Middle Ages and in compiling a multilingual lexicon of religious and philosophical-theological words.
