Unveiling Emotional Landscapes in Plautus and Terentius Comedies: A Computational Approach for Qualitative Analysis

Davide Picca, Caroline Richard


Abstract
This ongoing study explores emotion recognition in Latin texts, specifically focusing on Latin comedies. Leveraging Natural Language Processing and classical philology insights, the project navigates the challenges of Latin’s intricate grammar and nuanced emotional expression. Despite initial challenges with lexicon translation and emotional alignment, the work provides a foundation for a more comprehensive analysis of emotions in Latin literature.
