B03
Register knowledge in Ancient Egypt
B03 untersucht die Entstehung und Veränderung von Registern im Alten Ägypten. Mit qualitativen und quantitativen Korpusstudien werden zunächst registersensitive (morphosyntaktische) Variablen identifiziert und dann deren Verteilung ermittelt. Dabei soll sowohl die Registerunterscheidung bei bestimmten einzelnen Autoren (echte intraindividuelle Variation) als auch die Registerkonstitution durch Gruppen von Autoren untersucht werden.

We define ‘register’ as recurring variation in language use depending on the function of language and on the social situation. Informed by rich data, we aim to better understand and model the knowledge involved in situation- and function-based use of language register. In order to achieve this goal, we are using complementary methods and measures. In the review, we start by clarifying the concept of ‘register’, by reviewing the state of the art, and by setting out our methods and modeling goals. Against this background, we discuss three key challenges, two at the methodological level and one at the theoretical level: 1. To better uncover registers in text and spoken corpora, we propose changes to established analytical approaches. 2. To tease apart between-subject variability from the linguistic variability at issue (intra-individual situation based register variability), we use within-subject designs and the modeling of individuals’ social, language, and educational background. 3. We highlight a gap in cognitive modeling, viz. modeling the mental representations of register (processing), and present our first attempts at filling this gap. We argue that the targeted use of multiple complementary methods and measures supports investigating the pervasiveness of register phenomena and yields comprehensive insights into the cross-methodological robustness of register-related language variability. These comprehensive insights in turn provide a solid foundation for associated cognitive modeling.Hülk, Kristina (2022) Frontality in Meroitic Visual Communication: Function and Variation in Meaning In: 15th International Conference for Nubian Studies, Warsaw [ViVo] Serova, Dina; Lehmann, Nico (2022) Register Aspects of Language in Situation (REALIS) In: CRC 1412 - Fall Retreat 2022 [ViVo] Döring, Sophia; Lehmann, Nico; Serova, Dina (2022) Narration In: CRC 1412 - Fall Retreat 2022 [ViVo] Kühnast, Milena; Serova, Dina (2022) Formality In: CRC 1412 - Fall Retreat 2022 [ViVo] Lehmann, Nico; Lukassek, Julia; Serova, Dina; Döring, Sophia (2022) On Narration In: CRC 1412 – Spring Retreat 2022 [ViVo] Serova, Dina (2022) Area B on modeling of register knowledge in Historical Linguistics In: CRC 1412 – Spring Retreat 2022 [ViVo] Hülk, Kristina (2022) Project B03 - Resources In: Members' Meeting February 2022 [ViVo] Serova, Dina; Lukassek, Julia; Schulte, Britta (2022) Introduction to Workshop Narration in Context In: Narration in Context [ViVo] Hülk, Kristina (2022) Introduction to Workshop ReAL "Register in Ancient Languages" In: ReAL " Register in Ancient Languages" [ViVo]
