[cancelled] AAR/SBL 2018: P19-123 Corpus-driven Computer-assisted Exegesis in Feminist Biblical Studies
Bible Online Learner (http://bibleol.3bmoodle.dk) is an e-learning tool for corpus-driven computer-assisted learning of Biblical Languages (Hebrew and Greek) developed by the Global Learning Initiative (http://global-learning.org/). It has been tested in various Hebrew and Greek classes in Denmark, the USA, Madagascar and Tanzania with great success. The goal of the session is to show what a linguistic toolkit with a focus on gender-sensitive language in Bible Online Learner can look like. This tool will support research in the field of Feminist Biblical Studies to exercise computer-assisted linguistically based analysis of the Bible by creating a digitalized corpus of the Bible using gender-sensitive language through semantic parsing. The panel will review and discuss a digitalized version of the Book of Judges containing gender-sensitive translations for English, German and Danish by employing the EuroNet ontologies developed at the Free University in Amsterdam, to support feminist researchers in their desire to do exegesis with Bible Online Learner. This will be possible due the semantic parsing of the original sources of the Book of Judges which are digitalized in the ETCBC4 corpus of the Old Testament provided open-source by the Eep Talstra Center for Bible and Computer.
