Abstract

The UNICittà project, funded by the Carisbo Foundation as part of the Rediscovering The City 2019 call, focuses on the collection and dissemination of a corpus of texts on tangible and intangible heritage belonging to the University of Bologna. This multilingual corpus contains texts written in English, French, Russian and Spanish by foreign travellers of the past which have been collected in order to be made available to organisations and institutions for the creation of tourism promotion resources on the University's heritage. The main goal of the corpus is thus to enhance knowledge and access to such artistic and historical heritage that remains unknown to the wide public and international tourists. This project is part of the activities of the Multilingual Lexicon Research Unit operating at CeSLiC research center (https://site.unibo.it/ceslic/it) in the Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures.
