El acadio es una de las lenguas mejor documentadas del mundo antiguo. Desde su primera aparición en fuentes cuneiformes a mediados del tercer milenio a.e.c., se mantuvo en uso hasta el comienzo de la era común. El corpus de fuentes escritas en acadio es vasto, variado y continúa expandiéndose gracias a nuevos descubrimientos. Con nuevos materiales y metodologías, nuestro conocimiento del léxico acadio, las formas, orígenes, significados y usos de palabras y expresiones, mejora constantemente. Nuestra comprensión de la lengua es, a su vez, fundamental para nuestro entendimiento del mundo del Antiguo Oriente Próximo.Este dossier reúne siete estudios realizados por expertos en los campos de la Asiriología, los Estudios Semíticos y las Humanidades Digitales, presentando una variedad de enfoques disponibles hoy en día en el área de lo que, en términos sencillos, podría denominarse “estudio de palabras”.
