Abstract:

The project The Encyclopedia of Romanian Imaginaries. Historical Patrimony and Cultural-Linguistic Identities (ROMIMAG) aims to produce a knowledge base and a five-volume Encyclopaedia, providing a synoptic perspective on the cultural inheritance and spiritual identities of Romania. However, it would be impossible to tackle cultural identities without a thorough analysis of the collective imagination. Guided by the powerful and innovative concept of social and cultural imaginaries, along with other key concepts such as semantic basin, linguistic field, constellations of images, fractal identity, ROMIMAG will use multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary methodologies for analyzing the main domains of Romanian collective representations. It will feature 5 scientific work packages, covering the following fields: Romania’s Linguistic Patrimony; Literary Imaginaries; Historical Representations; Religious Imaginaries; Artistic Imaginaries and Patrimony. Within a two-year calendar, each work package will feature about 20 contributors, who will produce 20 articles presenting the main cultural basins covered by their volume, and 2 patents. This database will be published online (an interactive site, designed as an “electronic hive”) and in print (a five-volume Encyclopedia, published by Polirom, Iași). ROMIMAG targets different categories of public: educated (writers, artists, musicians, theatre and movie directors, linguists, editors, media specialists, curators), broad (pupils, students, general readership) and institutional (media studios, advertising and tourism companies, leaders and policy makers from the administration and governance levels). This panoramic image of the cultural and spiritual patrimony of Romania will offer, within the frame of European interculturalism, a better understanding of national, but also of local and group identities, which could prevent latent tensions and social violence from erupting and allow the configuration of a collaborative climate.

Abstract:

This project, namely "The Lexicon of Buda (1825). Emended and on-line ready edition", comes forst as an attempt to pertinently recover a remarkable work of the Transylvanian School, as well as to recognize its value, against a long-lasting abandon by the mainstream establishment.

Our project aims to bring to a second life this lexicographical work, as it sets as goal an edition that is both emended and on-line ready, with a search-able text brought to the current orthographical norm. Such edition is to offer pertinent grammatical, lexical and etymological information, and it should become readily available to a large public, specialists and non specialists, and it should prove more accurate, valid and complete than what the Google engine offers. Emending the information in the dictionary and putting it in digital form aims to multiple goals, such as: (1) the material shall be organized in a search-available corpus that will allow specialist the use of multiple search tools, the results being displayed in a linguistic pertinent manner and allowing cross-examination, (2) it will be an well-documented and available platform to a large public, (3) it will recover and promote the cultural and linguistic inherited background.
