Annotation
The work will be focused on the analysis of data from the 19th century legislative texts in form of a specialised corpus aiming to identify the extent of potential continuity of the use of legal terms in the second half of the 19th century in comparison with the processed legal lexicon in older lexicographic works and also in the framework of the contemporary legal context. The work will also include comparative analyses of selected semantic probes into legal terminology extracted from 19th century legislative texts with dictionaries of legal terminology published at the beginning of the 20th century.
