Dear colleagues,
I would like to bring to your attention those two lectureship position opening at the University of Bristol:
http://www.bristol.ac.uk/jobs/find/details.html?nPostingID=3073&nPostingTar…
They would be particularly interesting for medievalists, since they are about DH applied to History of English!
Best regards,
Marjorie

Call for Papers: TEI Members’ Meeting and Conference 2015
Posted on 2015-03-30 by pauloshea86
Text Encoding Initiative: connect, animate, innovate
2015 Annual Members’ Meeting and Conference of the TEI Consortium
Call for Papers, Panels, Posters, and Demonstrations
28–31 October 2015
Lyon, France
Deadline: Monday 27 April 2015
Submissions: https://www.conftool.net/###
We invite proposals for individual papers, panel sessions, posters, and demonstrations for the 15th annual Conference and Members’ Meeting of the Text Encoding Initiative Consortium (TEI—http://www.tei-c.org).
The power of the TEI is realized in interactions, between texts, between programs, between practices, and between members of its community. This theme invites considerations of technical and social applications and approaches, both to the practice of encoding and to the development of local and international communities of use. It includes training in the TEI and related areas, for example incorporating the digital into traditional forms of editing. It addresses integration of TEI-encoded texts at scale, for example in libraries and large corpora, and acknowledges that new research questions and external developments require continuous innovation.
Possible Topics
This list is not exclusive.
Connecting the TEI
TEI across corpora, languages, and cultures
TEI, formal ontologies and the Semantic Web
