Latinismos neológicos en el siglo XV: una propuesta metodológica a partir de la lingüística de corpus

The aim of this paper is to present the theoretical and methodological keys that have been followed for the preparation of a corpus of neological latinisms of the 15th century. Due to the lack of a historical dictionary of the Spanish language, our research is based upon the lexical items of the Diccionario del castellano del siglo XV en la Corona de Aragón (DICCA-XV). We’ve then compared the first documentation of its neologisms with the data of the
Corpus diacrónico del español (CORDE) and a sample of lexicographical works at our reach. Finally, we’ll use the list
of neologisms to explain the sort of philological data that can be deduced and analyzed from it using the DICCA-XV.
