Creation, within the Framework of the so.Da.Net. Social Research Ιnfrastructure, of a Corpus of Digital Multimedia Texts (e-corpus) on the Topic of Refugee Phenomenon

The e-corpus will collect texts, narrative, biographical, informative, administrative and other documents (diaries, newspapers, autobiographies, public documents, photographs) that refer to the refugee - migrant phenomenon, both in the period of the Asia Minor catastrophe and in the more recent events. The Infrastructure allows the documentation and management of such texts. Also, with the help of the Dictionary of Social Terms of the Infrastructure, provides the possibility of linking the texts both with each other and with other data (e.g. events, persons, places, or analyses). The design of the e-corpus enables its ongoing growth with the contribution of new researchers, both with new texts and with new associations between texts or new analyses on existing material. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the contribution of the e-corpus and the So.Da.Net Infrastructure to the study of the development of collective memory with reference to the Asia Minor disaster of 1922. Another purpose is to emphasize the impact of the disaster through representations on consciousness, predisposition and the manifestation of attitudes and behavior towards related key events that emerge through the anthropogeography of places of memory. The combination of texts creates nodes of recompositions and enrichment of conceptual approaches. This happens through an additive approach or even revisionary perspective of the content of the term definitions developed by the Dictionary of Social Sciences in parallel time. Furthermore, the systematic use of e-corpus texts documented in the context of conducting social research creates a dynamic perspective for research communities wishing to promote their work on an interdisciplinary level.
