Zusammenfassung
We propose an Information Extraction (IE) approach to the
automated semantic annotation of folktales. We introduce
and motivate the type of templates that we consider for encoding
the (possibly underspecified) information extracted
from textual and linguistic units of the tales. Each template
is (possibly partially) instantiated on the base of a combined
use of linguistic annotation and semantic resources. We opt
for an incremental strategy: already instantiated templates
can be further specialized on the base of subsequently instantiated
templates. Once the full text has been processed,
a round of specialization and of merging of the instantiated
templates can take place.
