Los oficios de los diplomas latinos de la Cataluna altomedieval: Estudio de las innovaciones lexicas: XI Premio Internacional de Tesis Doctorales Fundacion Ana Maria Aldama Roy de Estudios Latinos
In addition to providing invaluable insights into material culture, the configuration of social structures, and the legal customs of the period, the diplomas drafted in Catalonia during the High Middle Ages (9th-12th centuries) constitute an invaluable linguistic source. They bring together elements of Latin from the Roman era, particularly its late variant, Christian Latin, Vulgar Latin, and early pre-literary Catalan. This combination gives rise to a series of linguistic innovations that characterize a Latin which, despite being a learned language, exhibits features more typical of a living speech. Framed within the research project of the Glossarium Mediae Latinitatis Cataloniae (GMLC), this volume offers a study of 112 lexical innovations in the semantic field of trades identified in these sources. The analysis of these terms -many of which are loans, either Latinized or not, from Catalan- sheds light on the activities through which artisans, peasants, merchants, and others contributed to the development of medieval Catalan society. The findings are presented in the form of lexicographical entries, providing the reader with a comprehensive analysis of the etymological, semantic, morphological, and evolutionary aspects of each term, alongside other extralinguistic data of interest.
