MPCD workshop brings together experts in Central Iranian Philology and Digital Humanities

The MPCD members (https://www.mpcorpus.org) met at Cologne for the workshop “Towards a Comprehensive Middle Persian Dictionary.” The project is a collaboration among three leading German universities – Freie Universität Berlin, Universität zu Köln, and Ruhr-Universität Bochum. The workshop brought together experts from Middle Iranian philology, and Digital Humanities to discuss methods and challenges of digital lexicography, related to the next phase of the project. The event was funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), and was highly successful with insightful discussions and valuable knowledge shared.
