Fwd: Please circulate: TEAMS Middle English Texts Series Digital Redesign User Survey
by Franz FISCHER 29 Nov '22

29 Nov '22

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. ---------- Forwarded message --------- Dear Friends of the TEAMS Middle English Texts Series, On behalf of the TEAMS Middle English Texts Series, I am writing to request your help in supporting METS’s digital redesign efforts by completing the following user survey linked here<https://tinyurl.com/mets-redesign> as well as at the bottom of this email, along with a mobile-friendly QR code. Over its thirty-two years of publishing, METS has published and provided free online access to hundreds of digital editions of medieval texts, many of which would otherwise be rare, prohibitively expensive, or nonexistent as traditional print editions. These open-access editions have made it possible for instructors, students, and researchers alike to teach, learn, and advance scholarship on medieval British literature wherever they are in the world. An open-access digital collection, however, is only as accessible and useful as its website and user interface allow it to be – and over the past few years, it has become clear that both the METS website and its approach to digital editions need an update. Feedback from users like you will be pivotal in reimagining both with the needs of our diverse user base in mind. This user survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. At the end, you will have the option to indicate if you would be open to (1) sharing further thoughts on the digital redesign in a follow-up conversation and/or (2) helping with usability testing for the redesigned website in the future. Finally, please note that this survey will stop collecting responses on December 31, 2022, at 11:59 pm Eastern Time (UTC-5:00), so please make sure to complete the survey before this deadline. On behalf of METS, thank you for considering this request – I look forward to your response. Best wishes, Mead Bowen Ph.D. Candidate in English Staff Editor, TEAMS Middle English Texts Series Mellon Fellow in the Digital Humanities, 2021-2023 University of Rochester ebowen4(a)ur.rochester.edu<mailto:ebowen4@ur.rochester.edu> Survey Link: https://tinyurl.com/mets-redesign QR Code: [https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/CmPS5lt5CthfsE7_6dbr9uZgTJGExndQpE8Gi_AMm…] -- 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/

manuscript fragments in organs

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. Just published the description of fragments in organs: https://fragmentarium.ms/searchresult/overview/F-2nn5 Perhaps interesting because unusual as host volume. With the group of students from Erfurt we have created a really funny and very detailed overall description of this widely used but totally ignored area for manuscript research. Please also note the detailed paleographic description in the appendix as PDF as well as the many other examples of organs with fragments listed in the image sequences.

Fwd: Lightning Talk proposals for Schoenberg Symposium due 10/14
by Dot Porter 07 Oct '22

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. The Schoenberg Symposium this year is on the theme of TRANSLATING SCIENCE, and we are seeking proposals for 5 minute lightning talks to be posted to YouTube as part of the event. Symposium page: https://www.library.upenn.edu/event/translating-science Lightning talk submission form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfnGsFm_CZy4usTyM-Ch2nKJw7XY_VKTro… Translating Science considers the networks of exchange, transmission, and translation of natural knowledge evident in manuscript culture in the pre- and early modern periods. We will examine in particular the role of the manuscript book in the translation of natural knowledge across linguistic, regional, disciplinary, and epistemic boundaries. How did scholars, physicians, or philosophers use glosses, diagrams, or other elements of mise-en-page to convey information? What does the manuscript record reveal about the diffusion and conservation of knowledge? How does the materiality of the book itself drive the movement and development of scientific knowledge? What was the role of the scientific manuscript in the era of printed books? The deadline for submitting proposals for a lightning talk is Friday, October 14. Applicants will be notified by October 21 Videos must be submitted to SIMS by November 7 Proposals should be relevant to the theme of TRANSLATING SCIENCE and must be 5 minutes long or shorter. If you're curious about the lightning talk format you can see the Lightning Talks from the 2021 Symposium here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8e3GREu0zuAok9pFcgFSDTFqzLc5uRbh Submit your proposals by 10/14 in this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfnGsFm_CZy4usTyM-Ch2nKJw7XY_VKTro… If you have questions you can email me dorp(a)upenn.edu<mailto:dorp@upenn.edu>.
