Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Dear All, Please find below the final programme and link for registration. We hope you'll be able to join us. Who has Access to Digital Humanities? Diversity and Inclusivity in Digital Humanities in Ireland and the UK 22 October 2021, 09:30-15:30 Please register for a place at the virtual event: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/who-has-access-to-digital-humanities-tickets… The convenors of an Arts and Humanities Research Council/Irish Research Council funded project to undertake research and consultation towards the implementation of a permanent Digital Humanities association for the UK and Ireland (see list of team members at https://dhnetwork.org/) invite submissions from individuals to co-create an event relating to DH and inclusion. One of the dreams of information and communication technologies is that of equitable and open access to information, to services, and to opportunities. We know, of course, that this is only true on the surface, and that technological systems tend to recreate the inequities of the cultures and societies that build them. As such, the dream of the digital humanities as a ‘big tent’ (that is, capacious, broad and inclusive) is also one that we need to constantly query and challenge if the field is to have a claim to being inclusive and diverse. This is a particularly pressing issue as we explore the potential for a regional DH network to support the use and promotion of DH methods in the UK and Ireland.

Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. (Apologies for cross-posting) Observatory of Written Heritage | "Low Countries" (owhlc.hypotheses.org<http://owhlc.hypotheses.org/>) Meeting 2021 Brussels, KBR (Royal Library of Belgium), 23rd and 24th November 2021 Organized by [cid:image001.jpg@01D7C013.B883B570] Funded by [https://intranet.kbr.be/doc/logos/logoBelspoEN.jpg] Over the course of the Middle Ages and the first Renaissance, what was called the 'Low Countries' (BeNeLux, Northern France, Northern-Western Rhine Regions) developed an original written culture. The essential part of what has been preserved of this important heritage has fortunately survived in the libraries and manuscript collections of our regions, sometimes abroad. Over the last few years, important survey and recovery projects have been started. However, not all the heritage collections have been identified or explored, especially in the private and ecclesiastical libraries. Moreover, not all the pre-modern sources useful for the study of this written heritage have yet been identified, surveyed or edited. To facilitate these scholarly activities, we must call on information technologies and particularly on digital humanities for inventory, research, preservation and enhancement of this heritage. Relevant technologies include managing metadata, digitization, electronic editions, data mining, virtual libraries and virtual digital museology or digitally restoring medieval books. However, all these initiatives have not yet necessarily been surveyed, and they are still not all accessible from a central point of information. Moreover, many manuscripts and the relevant sources that document their history are still poorly known to scholars working in this field. It therefore seems timely and opportune to make an assessment of the initiatives and to establish a research community around the written heritage of the historical Low Countries and the application of digital humanities to this field. An 'observatory of written heritage', comparable to Biblissima and in close collaboration with this pioneering French portal in the field, would be a good approach to creating a synergy between keepers of the historical collections, expert librarians, academic scholars and teachers and digital humanities researchers. In order to launch this contact group's activities, a webinar has already been organized in May 2021. Now that the relaxation of the Covid-19 rules allow for in-person meetings, we are able to organize a meeting on 23rd and 24th November. This will not be a conference, but working groups deliberating on the need of such a network, the expectations for it, and the possible activities it could undertake in the next future. If you are a librarian, an archivist, a written heritage preservation or digitization specialist, a Digital Humanities specialist, a researcher or a teacher involved in the field of written cultures of the area in question, and if you are a representative of your institution, unit, laboratory, etc., you are friendly invited to participate in the working days (there may be several participants for each institution, depending on their skills). !!! Due to Covid health measures in Brussels-Capital Region, access might be made conditional on presentation of a 'Covid Safe Ticket' !!! REGISTRATION FORM <https://forms.gle/ksjh97nY9zVBhxpXA> (please CTRL + click to open) PROGRAM Tuesday, November 23rd 10:00 Welcome Coffee 10:30 Opening Speeches Lunch Time 13:00 Working Groups (Metadata and Cataloguing, Preservation and Heritage Management, Digitization, Research, Education and Training in Written Heritage and Digital Humanities, Virtual Museology and Enhancement of Written Heritage, etc.). 15:00 Visit of KBR Museum Wednesday, November 24th 09:30 Presentation of the Working Groups Summaries (1) 10:30 Coffee Break 11:00 Presentation of the Working Groups Summaries (2) Lunch Time 13:30 General Discussion 15:00 Closing Drink

A database of the early medieval manuscripts of Isidore's Etymologiae
by Evina Steinova 13 Oct '21

13 Oct '21

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, In April this year, I informed you about the beta launch of the Innovating Knowledge database. This database contains information about all surviving and identified early medieval manuscripts transmitting the Etymologiae of Isidore of Seville, fully or partially. Today, I am glad to inform you that the final version of the database was released at: db.innovatingknowledge.nl<http://db.innovatingknowledge.nl/>. Introduction to the database and explanatory texts can be found at the Innovating Knowledge website<https://innovatingknowledge.nl/?page_id=33>. This final version describes 478 manuscripts, giving us for the first time a good overview of how popular and widespread work the Etymologiae was in the early Middle Ages. It is almost certainly not the final count as new witnesses of Isidore's text from the early Middle Ages continue to be identified. The database can be, hopefully, curated for at least a few more years and new manuscripts can be added to it. If more funding can be secured for the database, one day it can be hopefully expanded to contain also post-1000 manuscripts of the most important medieval Latin encyclopaedia. The final version of the database also contains images of 270 of the manuscripts. As a novel feature, the database has an integrated Mirador viewer, which allows you to open and browse through all manuscripts equipped with a IIIF manifest (there are 264 of them) directly via the database. We also improved our free text search and filters and added two new formats (XML and Excel) to download options. Together with the database, the project also releases the data behind the database for reuse by other projects. They can be found here<https://zenodo.org/record/5564441>. I sincerely hope the Innovating Knowledge database will be a welcomed addition to the tools available to the Digital Medievalist community. We at the Innovating Knowledge project also welcome any tips for new manuscripts to include into the growing list of early medieval witnesses of the Etymologiae and also any corrections and additions of the extant entries in the database. Best wishes, Evina Steinova https://homomodernus.net/ https://evinasteinova.academia.edu/ Postdoctoral Researcher NWO VENI project Innovating Knowledge<http://innovatingknowledge.nl> Huygens ING, Dutch Royal Academy of Arts and Sciences, Amsterdam

Reminder: SIMS Online Lecture Series This Friday! Growing a Research Network: Approaches to Global Book History

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. There is still time to register for next week's SIMS Online Lecture. We look forward to seeing you there! * Growing a Research Network: Approaches to Global Book History Suzanne Conklin Akbari, Institute for Advanced Study, and Alexandra Gillespie, University of Toronto Friday, October 15, 2021, 12:00 - 1:30 pm EDT (via Zoom) The Book and the Silk Roads approaches the "book" in a capacious way: it is a writing surface, taken from the natural world, hand-crafted to bear textual records. Books can be rolls, leaves, screenfolds, codices, tablets, and even standing stones. To reveal their meanings, to read their diverse texts and scripts alongside their materials, physical structures, and layers of accretions, we need to marshal innovative, interdisciplinary approaches and a collaborative methodology, embedded within a global perspective. Over the past year and a half, we have worked to transform our understanding of the human past and its nonhuman contexts by establishing a wide range of research partnerships, laying the groundwork for a global history of the book. In this talk, we will offer an overview of The Book and the Silk Roads that 1) summarizes the lessons learned during the pandemic, as our project has pivoted in a nimble way to accommodate increased use of online environments and limitations on research travel; 2) outlines some of our research findings, from birchbark Kashmiri manuscripts to palimpsests from Sinai; and 3) describes our increasingly substantial public humanities focus, including our upcoming exhibition at the Aga Khan Museum, Hidden Stories: Books Along the Silk Roads.
