The study of correlative terms existing in a particular language mayoften throw valuable light on the manners and customs of the nationsusing it.(Peter Mark Roget, 1852)

 

 

The keyword we wish to put on our agenda as a starting exploring term is MEMORY [memorial – monument – public – public space] In order to find inferences with regard to the contemporary state of European society and looking for the best tools for safeguarding the European intangible cultural heritage, WORDS ROOM aims to compare how are defined in the European dictionaries some particular concepts dealing with art and culture and the ‘relation with the other’ – according to their specific significations in each country and its historical development. Are there important or small differences in the European languages with regard to the definition of selected words, or about the relations between them and about the ideas which they express? And if yes, what does that mean?
