How everyone can publish dictionaries on the Internet
At the time, the effort was enormous: the digitization of the 300 million printed characters of Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm's "German Dictionary" by a project team from the University of Trier took years. Even just structuring the entries for the online version was a major task. The ELEXIS project, funded by the EU's Horizon 2020 research framework program, has now come up with various solutions that make digitizing dictionaries easier. A tool developed by the Trier Center for Digital Humanities (TCDH) as part of the project at the University of Trier now makes it possible in principle for everyone to publish dictionaries on the Internet. There is no need for extensive technical knowledge to do this.

Nevertheless do not give up!” The beginning of one of his best-known poems, “To himself,” exemplifies how his texts reflect the literary, artistic, scientific, and confessional discourses and spheres of life typical of the 17th century. Since June 2022, Fleming's complete works have been reedited using digital methods as part of the eight-year research project “Complete Edition of the Latin and German Works of Paul Fleming with Translation of the Latin Works and Commentary and Indexes to the Complete Works.”
