Position in Medieval/Renaissance Studies at VT
by Dot Porter 17 Nov '05

17 Nov '05

OK, not strictly digital, but this position may be of interest to some on the list: http://www.idst.vt.edu/Med-Ren%20Announcement.htm The Department of Interdisciplinary Studies (IDST) at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University seeks an interdisciplinary humanities scholar at the assistant professor level beginning fall 2006. Applicants should demonstrate solid grounding in a specific humanities discipline as defined by the National Endowment of the Humanities, yet be willing to contribute to innovative interdisciplinary scholarship and the wider mission of IDST. Applicants should be able to teach Medieval/Renaissance Studies courses and coordinate the department?s Medieval/Renaissance Studies minor; they should also possess cross-cultural education and interest in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, or the Americas. The Department has strong ties with other arts and humanities departments on campus, and the successful candidate will be encouraged to construct cross-departmental ties with those relevant to their research and teaching interests. Course load: two courses per semester. Though I'm not employed at Tech, I grew up in Blacksburg and will vouch for the area as a great place to live. -- *************************************** Dot Porter, Program Coordinator Collaboratory for Research in Computing for Humanities University of Kentucky 351 William T.

HumanIT Call for papers
by Daniel O'Donnell 22 Oct '05

22 Oct '05

CALL FOR PAPERS: ELECTRONIC RECORDS The scholarly e-journal Human IT <http://www.hb.se/bhs/humanit/> hereby invites paper submissions for a special issue on "Electronic records" scheduled for release autumn 2006. The last decades' development of ICT, changes in organizational structures and work processes, and political concerns about democracy and access to information have provided challenges for archives and record-keeping practices as well as for the foundations of archival theory. These changes have caused a need for new practices, but have also generated new research issues concerning authenticity and reliability, legality, and preservation technologies. The field has a multi-disciplinary character, including for instance archival science, informatics and law. Contributions may relate to a broad range of topics, including (but not limited to): Access to electronic records Use and users' needs Record-keeping and Electronic Governance Personal Information Management Management of hybrid systems Preservation of cultural heritage Case studies - implementation of standards, guidelines and best practices, for instance ISO 15489, Moreq, OAIS etc. Anneli Sundqvist at the Department of Information Technology and Media, Mid Sweden University, Sweden, will act as guest editor. We welcome and encourage all contributions on these or other aspects of Electronic Records before March 1, 2006. Human IT is a multidisciplinary, scholarly e-journal dedicated to research and discussion about digital media as communicative, aesthetic and ludological instruments. It is published by the Centre for Information Technology Studies as a Human Science, which is a joint initiative by the departments at the University College of Boras, Sweden. Human IT publishes scholarly articles, essays and reviews, and encourages the participation of academics and practitioners alike. Contributions in Swedish, Danish, Norwegian and English are accepted, and up to this point the journal has had a predominantly Scandinavian scope. However, an increasing part of the material is written in English and reaches an international audience. Submitted manuscripts can either be considered for the journal's refereed section (double blind peer review by external referees) or its open section (reviewed by the editorial board and the guest editor). Authors should specify for which section they wish their constributions to be considered. The journal web site, including author instructions and the full-texts of previous issues, is available at: http://www.hb.se/bhs/humanit/. For further information, please visit the web site or contact our guest editor Anneli Sundqvist at anneli.sundqvist(a)miun.se. Yours sincerely, Mats Dahlström, editor (Mats.Dahlstrom(a)hb.se)

I thought this article might be interesting to members of the DM community: I can imagine applications for medieval studies. Does anybody have expertise in working with maps in scholarly digital publication? Are there other approaches and/or standards? -d -- Daniel Paul O'Donnell, PhD Director, Digital Medievalist Project (http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/) Associate Professor of English University of Lethbridge Lethbridge AB T1K 3M4 Canada Vox +1 (403) 329-2377 Fax +1 (403) 382-7191 :@wiglaf

Re: [dm-l] Introduction and Question re Medieval Law Texts
by Norman Hinton 18 Oct '05

18 Oct '05

Here's one: digidev.library.ucla,edu/canionlaw/ Corpus Juris Canonici (1582) "UCLA Digital Library, in collaboration with the Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies, will present a facsimile edition of the Decretals of Gregory IX as they appeared with marginal commentary in the Corpus canonicum glossatum promulgated by Gregory XIII in 1580. This will be the first re-printing of the glossed text of the Liber Extra since the appearance of the editio Romana. This edition of the laws, edited by the Roman Correctors, and provided with numerous indexes to assist in navigating the canons and understanding terminology, will allow historians and legal scholars to study canon law with the aid of the original textual apparatus (glossa ordinaria). The publication of the Liber Extra will be followed during 2006 by the appearance of the glossed texts of Decretum Gratiani and the Liber Sextus. The project is directed by Professor Henry Ansgar Kelly of the UCLA Department of English, and supported by a grant from the Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation."
