Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Dear Colleagues, We are pleased to announce the international conference "Historical Documents and Digital Challenges: Debating the iForal Project" which will take place on January 22-24, 2025, at the School of Arts and Humanities, University of Lisbon, in a hybrid format. This event is organized by the iForal project, Portuguese Municipal Charters in the Middle Ages: A Historical and Linguistic Approach in the Digital Era (https://iforal.hypotheses.org/). This international conference aims to present and debate some of the research results of the iForal team project, in dialogue with other national and international multidisciplinary projects, also focused on historical documentation from the medieval period. The use of digital tools and resources that challenge the way of reading, editing and criticising these texts, the scope of comparative analysis and the limits of historical-linguistic interpretation of data will be under analysis. The Call for Papers is now open, with submissions due by October 15th, 2024. For further details, please visit: https://sites.google.com/view/iforal2025/home. Please find attached the event poster. We would greatly appreciate it if you could share this Call for Papers with any relevant contacts you deem appropriate. Best regards, Filipa Roldão PI of the iForal project Centre for History of the University of Lisbon School of Arts and Humanities, University of Lisbon ---------------- Call for Papers: The project iForal. Portuguese Municipal Charters in the Middle Ages: an Historical and Linguistic Approach in the Digital Era (*) developed an electronic edition of the first Portuguese royal charters, incorporating their most ancient documentary witnesses produced in Latin and the vernacular until the end of the 15th century. Urban and rural communities received rules from secular or ecclesiastical masters regulating social coexistence, rights and duties, economic activities, and administrative, jurisdictional, or tax practices. These norms, expressed in charters, resulted from the convergence of the interests of both parties. Over the centuries, the norm was successively rewritten, either in charters initially addressed to other lands or in ratifications of its content. Therefore, written words, graphic models, and forms of validation were circulated and adapted to each rewriting of the standard. The survival of these charters and their formal and linguistic variation throughout the medieval period (or even beyond) is the main object of study for the iForal team, which has been developing resources and collaborative work in history, linguistics, and information technologies. The project's central resource is its digital text editing platform, EDICOLAB, which allows collaborative and interdisciplinary work and will be available for other documentary corpora. This international conference aims to present and debate some of the research results of the iForal team, in dialogue with other national and international multidisciplinary projects, also focused on historical documentation from the medieval period. The use of digital tools and resources that challenge the way of reading, editing and criticising these texts, the scope of comparative analysis and the limits of historical-linguistic interpretation of data will be under analysis. We invite researchers, especially young researchers (doctoral students and recent PhDs), to present ongoing work on medieval documentation, from different perspectives (History, Linguistics, Textual Criticism, and Information Technologies). Possible topics (for 20-minute contributions related to medieval charters or other historical documentation) include, but are not limited to: - production, use, and circulation of historical documents - power agents and strategies - documentary heritage - normative traditions in interaction - norm and territoriality - social, political, economic categories - linguistic diversity and variation - emergence of vernacular languages - writing and orality - linguistic and spelling standardisation - genetics and textual transmission - textual studies and scholarly editing - digital tools and resources - digital edition and technological innovation Submissions should be sent by October 15th, using an online form (see website), with name, e-mail address, institutional affiliation and position, title of the proposed paper, and abstract (200 words in Portuguese, Spanish, English or French). Abstracts will be reviewed by the members of the scientific committee. Decisions will be announced by November 15th, 2024. Selected papers shall be published in a post-conference volume.

Caution: This email was sent from someone outside of the University of Lethbridge. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you know they are safe. Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Dear DM community, We at the Innovating Knowledge project (Huygens Institute, Amsterdam) have just completed the annual update of the project's database of the early medieval manuscripts transmitting the Etymologiae of Isidore of Seville. This is the third update since the project's official end in August 2021, so we are quite excited that it took place. The current database version (2.3.5) contains detailed information on 507 manuscripts (up from 496). 🔗 database: https://db.innovatingknowledge.nl/ 📊 data (as an .xslx file): https://zenodo.org/records/13827506 ℹ️ more info on the project and its methodology: https://innovatingknowledge.nl/ This version contains not only previously unknown manuscripts, more detail on known manuscripts, and many corrections to the information in older catalogues, but also images of manuscripts that have so far not been digitized (459 images altogether), links to digitized manuscripts (400+ manuscripts), and integrated IIIF viewer to view manuscripts with IIIF manifests directly via the database interface (336 manuscripts). We hope you will find the database useful and the data reusable. The project is no longer actively funded, so we, unfortunately, can no longer fix the code or make any major technical changes, but if you spot any errors in the data, have information to add that you are willing to share, or know of manuscripts that you think should be included in this survey, let us know.

Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Dear digital medievalists, The Venice Centre for Digital and Public Humanities is happy to share the definite programme of the international conference "Dungeon. Iconography of an Archetype From the Antiquity to the Digital Age" to be held September 24-25, 2024, ONLINE and partly in presence at Ca' Foscari University of Venice, Palazzo Malcanton Marcorà, Sala Geymonat/VeDPH Lab, Dorsoduro 3484/d. Here is the full programme: Dungeon PDF download<https://apps.unive.it/server/eventi/90970/A3_Berti_24.25.09.24_programma%20…> Further information below and at the following link: https://www.unive.it/data/33113/2/90970 *** The dungeon, growing out of gaming and popular culture, has become in recent decades an ideal framework for examining the relationship between imagined space and worldbuilding. From experimental maps to the digital sphere, the dungeon has deeply influenced not only tabletop and role-playing games but also traditional artistic practices, evolving into a metaphor for participatory installations and exhibition spaces. The international conference “Dungeon: The Iconography of an Archetype from Antiquity to the Digital Age” seeks to offer a fresh multidisciplinary perspective on the subterranean and labyrinthine space as an iconographic topos, tracing its development from ancient times to the intricate multilayered architectures of contemporary digital culture. The conference is organized by VeDPH – Venice Centre for Digital and Public Humanities. Department of Humanities Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. In collaboration with the Department of History, Philosophical and Art History Studies, Tor Vergata University of Rome; 3ARC – Ancient Art Architecture; Università eCampus; Department of Linguistic, Literary, and Aesthetic Studies, University of Bergen. The keynote speakers will be Carmelo Occhipinti (Full Professor of Museology and Artistic Critics of Restoration at Tor Vergata University of Rome), Mark Algee-Hewitt (Associate Professor of 19th Century English Literature and Digital Humanities at Stanford University), and Espen Aarseth (Chair Professor of Game Studies and Dean of the School of Creative Media at City University of Hong Kong). They will be joined by scholars from Italian and international institutions who will offer reflections on the theme of the "dungeon" as a symbolic space, drawing from the fields of art history, literature, media studies, archaeology, and architecture. Organized by Paolo Berti, Claudio Castelletti, and Stefania De Vincentis. The conference is held in Italian and English. You can attend the conference remotely by using the following: https://unive.zoom.us/j/82109102083?pwd=YbUqMOVE6p6OY3t6bRXxdaqzVA6jJu.1 -- Franz Fischer Direttore, Venice Centre for Digital & Public Humanities (VeDPH) Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici Università Ca' Foscari Palazzo Malcanton Marcorà Dorsoduro 3484/D - 30123 Venezia Tel.: +39 041 234 6266 (ufficio), +39 041 234 9863 (segreteria del centro) https://www.unive.it/vedph https://www.i-d-e.de/ https://journal.digitalmedievalist.org/
