Presentation for the 3rd Workshop on Humanities in the Semantic Web (WHiSe), co-located with the 15th Extended Semantic Web Conference (ESWC 2020) and held online on June 2, 2020. The paper has won the Best Paper Award of the workshop. ABSTRACT: In this paper, we describe the process of inclusion of a prior polarity lexicon of Latin lemmas, called LatinAffectus, in a knowledge base of interoperable linguistic resources developed within the "LiLa: Linking Latin" project. More specifically, a
more » ... ally-curated list of lemma-sentiment pairs is linked to a comprehensive collection of Latin lemmas by using Semantic Web and Linked Data standards and practices. LatinAffectus is modeled relying on three formal representation frameworks: Lemon and Ontolex to describe the lexicon, and the Marl ontology to describe the sentiment properties of each of its lexical entries. We present the lexicon, the methodology and the results of the linking process, as well as a use case and the planned future work.
