This is a multilingual structured thesaurus for use by humanities researchers. It is maintained and supported by the Academy of Athens.
The DYAS Humanities Thesaurus is the result of an effort to create a multilingual structured thesaurus for use by humanities researchers. It is a special thesaurus based on the principles, methodology and hierarchies of the BBT.
The Thesaurus is the intellectual property of the Academy of Athens (AA), the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA) and the School of Fine Arts (ASFA). It is a collaborative effort and was created during the projects “DARIAH GR Creating an Infrastructure Network for Research in the Humanities” (2013-2015) and “APOLLONIS: National Infrastructure for the Digital Arts and Humanities and for Language Research and Innovation” (2017-2020). It is maintained and supported by the Academy of Athens.
The thesaurus management tool THeMaS developed by the Foundation for Research and Technology – Hellas was used to create it. To view the thesaurus in its development environment, follow the link and type username: Reader (without a password).
