Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. The Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies (SIMS<http://schoenberginstitute.org/>) at the University of Pennsylvania Libraries is pleased to announce the 14th Annual Lawrence J. Schoenberg Symposium on Manuscript Studies in the Digital Age: 14th Annual Schoenberg Symposium on Manuscript Studies in the Digital Age (Online) Loss November 17-19, 2021 Engaging with pre-modern books and manuscripts necessarily involves reckoning with the paradox of loss. While a historical document from the distant past is the material survivor of a singular attempt to hedge against the disappearance of an idea, image, or text, the extant specimen always has to be considered alongside missing exemplars, damage and erasure, lost comparanda, and the vanished life-worlds that produced the object in the first place. This symposium will interrogate the notions of loss, survival, and recuperation in manuscript studies, so often in the background but rarely acknowledged as defining features of the field. Bringing together scholars, librarians, curators, and conservators, we will investigate losses unknowable and quantifiable, ancient and recent, large and small, physical and digital. How have chance survivals shaped literary and linguistic canons? How might the topography of the field appear differently had certain prized unica not survived? What are the ways in which authors, compilers, scribes, and scholars have dealt with lacunary exemplaria? How do longstanding and emergent methodologies and disciplines-analysis of catalogs of dispersed libraries, reverse engineering of ur-texts and lost prototypes, digital reconstructions of codices dispersi, digital humanities. and cultural heritage preservation, and trauma studies to name a few,-serve to reveal the extent of disappearance? How can ideologically-driven biblioclasm or the destruction wrought by armed conflicts -- sometimes occurring within living memory -- be assessed objectively yet serve as the basis for protection of cultural heritage in the present? In all cases, losses are not solely material: they can be psychological, social, digital, linguistic, spiritual, professional. Is mournful resignation the only response to these gaps, or can such sentiments be harnessed to further knowledge, understanding, and preservation moving forward? The online program will take place in morning and afternoon sessions (EST) from Wednesday, November 17, to Friday, November 19. The symposium will end with a keynote address by Professor Elaine Treharne, Stanford University..

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 all, I would like to call your attention to two calls: (1) for activities; (2) for posters, for the Linked Pasts Symposium, hosted by Ghent University and CLARIAH Flanders from Dec 13-17 (online) and Dec 20-21 (in person). We are interested in discussions, hackathons, new project planning, and other practical activities, in the area of Linked Open Data and the historical world. (1) Call for Activities: There will be space for suggestion and selection of activities at the conference, but we also welcome proposals for research activities, which may include (but are not restricted to): development of standards, ontologies and research applications; discovery and integration of datasets; enrichment and annotation of textual collections; collaboration, pedagogy and community expansion; other relevant undertakings with a focus on Linked Open Data and the historical world. To propose a stream or working group for the conference programme, please fill in the form at <https://forms.gle/Z3aj3UfixTNENyaB8> with a max. 200-word abstract outlining your suggestion, type of activity and the medium in which it will be run, and some indication of the likely participants (e.g. names, community or expected stakeholders) by the end of Monday October 18, 2021. (2) Call for posters: In the absence of individual presentations and lectures, posters are a great way to share a project, dataset, method or activity related to the LOD and historical or heritage research, and discuss your work in a less formal setting with other interested attendees. We will hold an online digital poster session available throughout the symposium. To propose a poster, please send an abstract of 100–150 words to gabriel.bodard(a)sas.ac.uk by the end of Monday October 18, 2021.

Call for participants: Immersive Global Middle Ages NEH Institute for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities

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. [IGMA-Cover-1024x370.png] Dear Dm-L Colleagues: My colleague, Dr. Lynn Ramey (Vanderbilt)<https://my.vanderbilt.edu/lynnramey/> and I<https://history.uccs.edu/roger-martinez>, are announcing a call for participants for our Immersive Global Middle Ages NEH Institute for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities. Virtual reality, augmented reality, and 3D digital environments are witnessing explosive growth in research and teaching, but faculty and staff who could benefit from these techniques do not have equal access to the tools they need. Hardware and software used in the creation of 3D environments is expensive; institutional policies and commitment are highly variable; and some who would benefit lack confidence with the technology. The Immersive Global Middle Ages Institute provides a diverse cohort of medievalists with both theoretical and practical training in the creation and implementation of 3D objects and environments for research and teaching. The Institute will meet online three times each semester and will have two in-person four-day summer workshops over a two-year period (January 2022-November 2023). By the end of the Institute, participants will have considered the research around using 3D environments, developed 3D object assets and worlds, and authored teaching resources to pass on their new skills to students and colleagues. Given that many participants will lack the necessary robust computing hardware and software needed to participate in the workshops, the Institute will award technology stipends to participants for the purchase of an Alienware computer customized for immersive technology, monitor, keyboard/mouse, and a 3-year onsite support/warranty; an Oculus Rift headset; and a two-year license for Trimble SketchUp Pro modeling software. Initial details about the Institute can be found here: https://grants.uccs.edu/igma/ All are welcome to apply. Recognizing the need to address digital divides in higher education, this Institute will prioritize the professional development of participants who are members of underrepresented ethnic, cultural, and religious communities; women; diverse gender identities; and those who work at institutions serving those communities. Expenses to attend the in-person workshops are also covered by the institute. We will begin accepting formal applications for the institute in late September 2021. To receive updates on the application process, please send your name, position, institution, and email address to: igma(a)uccs.edu<mailto:igma@ucca.edu>.

Help with our high-quality historical OCR app
by Nick White 17 Sep '21

17 Sep '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 all, We are a small 2-person not-for-profit company called Rescribe working on OCR for historical printed works, such as you would find on Internet Archive and Google Books. So far we have primarily worked with academic research projects and libraries to provide transcriptions of collections of interest to them, but have always been invested in broadening our work to help individuals get high quality OCR results, too. In recent months we have devoted more time to community-oriented open source software, developing a free desktop tool to perform high-quality OCR on modern and historic printed text. At the moment, this tool can only be run from the command line, but we’ve been encouraged by anecdotal feedback and a very positive independent review of our tool <https://classicalstudies.org/scs-blog/hmcelroy/blog-review-latinocr-and-res…> to make this tool more accessible. We would like to achieve this by creating a simple Graphic User Interface (GUI) for Windows, Mac and Linux, potentially with additional functionality built in. As the focus of this work is on providing useful tools to individuals, rather than catering to a large project, we are interested in trying a crowdfunding campaign in order to finance the development of this GUI and get interested parties directly involved in the actual development process. Before starting the crowdfunding campaign itself, however, we would like to take a chance and gauge interest from potential participants. We’ve composed a 30-second, 3-question survey where potential participants can register interest and have their say on future features of the tool, see here: https://forms.gle/AZcKpsbzQQajSE4j6 Please fill it out if you have a moment, and forward it on to anyone you think might be interested. In the meantime, any questions, comments and suggestions are all very welcome, either as a reply here, or to info(a)rescribe.xyz! All the very best, Nick + Antonia from Rescribe https://rescribe.xyz

Canterbury Tales Project. MA and PhD funding opportunity
by Bordalejo, Barbara 06 Sep '21

06 Sep '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 all, Please distribute widely among your students. Best, BB The Canterbury Tales Project (https://www.canterburytalesproject.org/) is seeking curious and enthusiastic graduate students for funded research positions at the MA and Ph.D. levels. If you are interested in Chaucer, Middle English literature, manuscript culture, early print, textual scholarship, Humanities Data or the Digital Humanities, we are interested in hearing from you. We can also consider other proposals related to our work. The Canterbury Tales Project is a long-standing digital editorial project with almost 30 years of history leading in the development of editions and innovative methods for research and delivery. In February 2020, the project published the CantApp: General Prologue, which has been downloaded more than 70.000 times since its release. The CTP also defines the cutting edge of textual research: we use an integrated digital editing platform (Textual Communities) and bioinformatics software to study and analyze the textual tradition of the Tales. Although the project’s main aim is to reach a better understanding of the textual tradition of the Canterbury Tales, we also seek to discover and implement better ways of delivering complex information. The project was recently awarded a five-year $330,000 Insight Grant by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and is associate with several other recently funded projects in Digital Humanities at the University of Lethbridge, the University of Calgary and the University of Saskatchewan. This allows us to offer funding for Ph.D. and MA candidates to work with us at the University of Lethbridge and the possibility of co-supervision arrangements through the University of Calgary and/or the University of Saskatchewan). What we want: We seek students interested in researching combined aspects of the Canterbury Tales, manuscript studies, digital research methods, digital humanities and Open Science. You are a curious and enthusiastic research student who will take an active role in the project while carrying out your individual line of research. You want to work as part of a team and contribute to the lab’s research environment. You believe in open science and open data published under FAIR principles. Your interests might be: Chaucer Middle English Literature Manuscript Culture Early Printed Books Textual Scholarship Open Data Digital Humanities… ...but we are open to considering other proposals. We will be particularly interested in discussing ideas beyond traditional textual criticism and attuned to areas of research expanding the canon and conventional views of the text of Chaucer. If you have an innovative critical approach, we want to hear from you. What we offer: We are offering funding for a Ph.D. or M.A. within a lively and diverse working environment. You will learn from peers and project leaders in the framework of our lab, where you can learn about all aspects of the project and its management while sharing in the lab’s collaborative and interdisciplinary research environment. Our project works closely with several other well-funded Digital Humanities and Open Science projects at the University including work on Indigenous languages, Scholarly Communication, and Open Data. The University has a number of innovative cross-disciplinary programmes, including Cultural, Social, and Political Thought (which takes an interdisciplinary approach to problems in the Humanities and Social Sciences) and a new Data Sciences programme, which is developing an approach that will span the Sciences, Social Sciences, and Humanities.

Leveraging non-named entities in Coptic antiquity (Seminar)

Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. (Late antique/early Mediaeval material discussed in the following seminar…) Digital Classicist London Seminar Friday September 10, 2021, 17:00 (UK time/UTC+1) Amir Zeldes (Georgetown), Caroline Schroeder (Oklahoma), Lance Martin (CUA) Leveraging non-named entities in Coptic antiquity Streamed live at https://youtu.be/Web8vaAbx-M In this paper we present the latest work on large scale, semi-automatic and quantitative analysis of the body of entities mentioned in texts from Coptic Antiquity. Unlike Greek and Roman materials, which have been studied extensively, digital treatment of Coptic data from the first millennium has lagged behind until recently, in part due to the smaller research community and the morphological complexity of the language, which is fusional and features agglutination, compounding and incorporation of nouns into complex verbs. We show how annotating named and non-named entities enriches Coptic corpora, including the identification of nested entities and entity linking. We will focus especially on non-named Coptic entities, which are of great interest to scholars working on monasticism and asceticism, since many central texts revolve around unnamed protagonists (e.g. ‘an ascetic’) in unidentified locations (‘a monastery’). In many cases, the proportion of named entities is well below 5%. The relevance of entity annotation is further demonstrated through visualizations of Coptic entities, which enable researchers to access a variety of information in Coptic corpora through distant reading, allowing them to explore easily types of places in different works, to get lists of nouns referring to organizations, events or animals, examine feminine vs. masculine nouns denoting people and more. From a comparative quantitative perspective, the prevalence of non-named entities of different types can also reveal dissimilarities between texts.

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 all, please find below a reminder of the call for papers (deadline 15th September) of the 2022 number volume of Journal "magazén" (with apologies for cross-posting). All best, Paolo --- https://edizionicafoscari.unive.it/en/edizioni4/riviste/magazen/info <https://edizionicafoscari.unive.it/en/edizioni4/riviste/magazen/info> Deadlines Abstract Submission – September 15, 2021 Abstract acceptance – October 15, 2021 Articles Submission – Febrauary 15, 2022 (issue 1) or July 15, 2022 (issue 2) Prospective publication – June 2022 (issue 1) and December 2022 (issue 2) Call for Papers | 2022 Topic: [re]constructions /magazén/ is accepting proposals to its 2022 volume entitled [re]constructions, which shall devote two semestral issues of the journal (June and December) to the theory and practice of [re]configuring lost realities, [re]creating long gone dimensions, [re]building likely scenarios, [re]considering exhibition settings and [re]covering disappeared traces of historical and cultural value. Indeed, over the last decade the principle of [re]construction by means of scholarly expertise set the pace of many recent research projects in the prosperous field of digital and public humanities. Particularly digital tools and interdisciplinary collaborations provided the opportunity to [re]compose varied sources and [re]visualise research data, such as to offer unprecedented insights in historical, societal, cultural, artistic, archaeological, and political events. Evolving research technologies and consolidated methodological approaches in the digital and public humanities allowed scholars to test their analytical abilities against a set of novel possibilities to make their results public, immersive, and virtually appreciated. In this regard, digital and public humanities lay at the crossroads of the kind of speculation, intuition, and invention that comes with every act of scholarly [re]construction, seen as a creative task steered by scientific rigour. A true symbol of this attitude are the square brackets, which stand as a visual sign and signifier of the ‘gap-filling’ and ‘meaning-making’ tasks humanists always aim to accomplish in their research work. In a sense, digital and public humanists have the privilege of [re]framing their disciplines in various ways, such as: filling the gap of missing text fragments and traditions, retracing the dynamics of historical processes and events, retrieving dispersed artworks and collections, reconstructing lost archaeological sites and artefacts. Eventually, /magazén/’s volume 2022 will draw particular attention to the public aspects of such endeavours, given that successful [re]constructions hold firm to the principle of research dissemination and audience involvement from their very inception, rather than having public access just as a late side-effect of scholarly work. Hence, for its 2022 volume /magazén/ is set to examine in two semestral issues the concept of ‘[re]constructions’ as a procedural and constitutional peculiarity of digital and public humanities. Scholars are particularly invited to submit contributions that span from theoretical debates to methodological reflections, also comprising the examination of particular case studies from the heterogeneous domains of Digital Textual Scholarship, Digital and Public History, Digital and Public Archaeology, Digital and Public Art History, GLAM studies. For scholars interested in submitting a proposal, please write an abstract of no more than 200 words together with a short biographical note and the provisional title of the paper. All materials should be sent by September 15, 2021 via email (subject: “magazén 2022 – Call for Papers”) to the editorial board at the following address: magazen(a)unive.it <mailto:magazen@unive.it>. Notice of selection will be given to authors within four weeks from submission deadline. Finalised contributions are expected to be 6,000-9,000 words long (notes and bibliography included) and will undergo double blind peer review. Accepted languages are Italian and English, though all texts must have an English abstract and stick to the ‘Editorial Guidelines’ <https://edizionicafoscari.unive.it/media/pdf/pubblicare-con-noi/ecf_norme_e…> of Edizioni Ca’ Foscari. Texts that should not comply with editorial guidelines will not be accepted. Please note that the author must secure all copyright permissions (reproduction costs included) for images and other media. The deadline for all accepted articles is February 15, 2022, for issue 1 and July 15, 2022, for issue 2. Final publication of the first issue is planned by June 2022, while the second issue will be due in December 2022.
