3. the controlled vocabularies external to the ASW system, particularly from
other thesauruses, languages or standards we wish to use “directly” (on their own or
in conjunction with the terminological resources specific to the ASW system) to
analyze an audiovisual text or corpus. We saw an example of this in Chapter 10
(section 10.3), based on using a shared ASW micro-thesaurus and a micro-thesaurus
from UNESCO to describe audiovisual texts about the cultural constructs of a
people or a geopolitical region.
11.5.Theschemasofdefinition
A schema of definition is a configuration which positions two or more
metalinguistic elements of the ASW system in relation to one another. In addition, a
“schema”-type configuration is considered to be an elementary configuration (in
contrast to a “sequence”-type configuration which, in itself, is a compilation of one
or more schemas).
