Panta rei: Tracking Semantic Change with Distributional Semantics in Ancient Greek

We present a method to explore semantic change as a function of variation in distributional semantic spaces. In this paper, we apply this approach to automatically identify the areas of semantic change in the lexicon of Ancient Greek between the pre-Christian and Christian era. Distributional Semant...

description	We present a method to explore semantic change as a function of variation in distributional semantic spaces. In this paper, we apply this approach to automatically identify the areas of semantic change in the lexicon of Ancient Greek between the pre-Christian and Christian era. Distributional Semantic Models are used to identify meaningful clusters and patterns of semantic shift within a set of target words, defined through a purely data-driven approach. The results emphasize the role played by the diffusion of Christianity and by technical languages in determining semantic change in Ancient Greek and show the potentialities of distributional models in diachronic semantics.
