CeRch seminar next week: Orla Murphy
by Stuart Dunn 07 Nov '12

07 Nov '12

With apologies for cross-postings. Centre for e-Research Seminar, King's College London Reading Screens Orla Murphy , University College Cork http://www.kcl.ac.uk/innovation/groups/cerch/research/seminars/2012-13/read… 13 November 21012, 6.15pm, Anatomy Museum Space, Strand Campus (directions: http://www.kcl.ac.uk/cultural/atm/location.aspx) The cultural act of reading is in flux. The dynamic, contextual framework that is the text viewed on screen challenges our understanding of the page. Some technologies seek to emulate the page, to turn off the back light and enable reading outdoors in sunlight. Other digital technologies aim to both sustain and augment the reader’s experience of the text, moving beyond the paper page and into a new conceptualisation of reading, with layers of texts, with choices of views, with integrated multi and social media. This presentation explores how we once read and how we now read often multivalent texts on multiple screens. I query what has changed in these new modes of knowledge representation, and what remains constant, and posit challenges for future scholarly discourse. About the Speaker Orla Murphy – Coordinator of the MA DAH program at UCC, member of the national inter-institutional PhD DAH program in Ireland. Lecturer in the School of English, University College Cork, where she teaches, Old English language, palaeography, codicology and new histories of the book; a third year course on textualities, and MA, PhD courses on digital scholarly editing and textual practice. The seminar will be followed by wine and nibbles. -- --------------------------------------------- Dr. Stuart Dunn Lecturer Centre for e-Research Department of Digital Humanities King's College London 26-29 Drury Lane London, WC2B 5RL Tel. +44 20 7848 2709 Fax. +44 20 7848 2980 www.stuartdunn.wordpress.com

DigiPal (Department of Digital Humanities, King's College London) One-Day Symposium Dear all, As the days darken and the wind starts to bite, we thought it might be worth remembering that there's more to a UK November than fireworks and cold weather. With that in mind, the DigiPal team at King's College London, in association with the Department of English, Linguistics and Cultural Studies, University of Westminster, are delighted to announce the programme for their "Digital Approaches to Medieval Script and Image" Symposium.

Call for Participants
by Sarah L Pfannenschmidt 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Good afternoon, I'm an MSIS candidate at the University of Texas at Austin, School of Information. My faculty sponsor (Dr. Tanya Clement) and I are working on a project that focuses on evaluation methods and standards for digital scholarly projects, with a particular emphasis on those that use the Text Encoding Initiative standard. We would like to gather responses from the TEI community (as well as the general Digital Humanities community) in order to understand more about how digital scholarly projects are currently evaluated. To this end, I have put together a survey and would be grateful if you would take the time to answer a few questions: https://qtrial.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_b89IXl4msVon4u9 The survey should take no more than 20 minutes of your time. If you take the survey and would be open to discussing this topic further, please contact me at the following email address and we can arrange a virtual interview via Skype at your convenience: SPfannenschmidt(a)utexas.edu. Thank you in advance for your assistance with this project; we value your insights. Best, Sarah Pfannenschmidt, MSIS candidate, University of Texas at Austin School of Information Dr. Tanya Clement, Assistant Professor, University of Texas at Austin School of Information

5th Annual Lawrence J.

The papers presented at this symposium will examine this aspect of the manuscript book through a variety of topics, including the place of the medieval library in manuscript culture, the rise and fall of the 12th-century commentary tradition, diagrams, devotional practice, poetics, and the organization and use of encyclopedias and lexicons. Participants include: . Katharine Breen, Northwestern University . Mary Franklin-Brown, University of Minnesota, Twin Cities . Vincent Gillespie, University of Oxford . Alfred Hiatt, Queen Mary, University of London . William Noel, University of Pennsylvania . Sara S. Poor, Princeton University . Eric Ramirez-Weaver, University of Virginia .
