Index or catalogue of original medieval texts?
by Franz Fischer 13 Sep '19

13 Sep '19

Dear digital medievalists, Gabby Bodard has just posted a good question to our cousin, the mailing list of Digital Classicist on (see below). I wonder if you know of sites that catalogue or index original medieval texts (Latin, but also Greek and Vernacular). The Corpus Corporum (http://www.mlat.uzh.ch/MLS/) sure is the most complete (meta-)repository of freely available Latin texts. Other texts are indicated in the catalogues of digital editions by Patrick Sahle (http://digitale-edition.de/) and Greta Franzini (https://dig-ed-cat.acdh.oeaw.ac.at/), both browsable by language and period. What would medievalists suggest? Many thanks, Franz -------- Messaggio Inoltrato -------- Oggetto: [DIGITALCLASSICIST] Index or catalogue of original ancient texts? Data: Wed, 11 Sep 2019 11:58:37 +0000 Mittente: Gabriel Bodard <gabriel.bodard(a)SAS.AC.UK> Rispondi-a: The Digital Classicist List <DIGITALCLASSICIST(a)JISCMAIL.AC.UK> A: DIGITALCLASSICIST(a)JISCMAIL.AC.UK Dear colleagues, Do you know of a site that catalogues or indexes original ancient texts (Greek, Latin—including Mediaeval Latin etc.—and other classical languages are all relevant in this context) wherever on the web they may be? Sites such as Perseus, Latin Library, Intratext, Poesia Latin, Loebolus, Wikisource, Google Books, all have different coverage (and quality) of ancient texts. The DLL Catalog (https://catalog.digitallatin.org/) aim to catalogue Latin texts of this kind, but don't seem to capture things like Wikisource, Gutenberg or Google. Where would you go to find all possible free and open sources of Latin text of, for example, Geoffrey of Monmouth? Or Greek equivalent? Many thanks in advance for any suggestions, and all best, Gabby == Dr Gabriel BODARD Reader in Digital Classics Institute of Classical Studies University of London Senate House Malet Street London WC1E 7HU E: Gabriel.bodard(a)sas.ac.uk T: +44 (0)20 78628752 http://digitalclassicist.org/ ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the DIGITALCLASSICIST list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?SUBED1=DIGITALCLASSICIST&A=1 --- Questa email è stata esaminata alla ricerca di virus da AVG. http://www.avg.com -- Nota automatica aggiunta dal sistema di posta.

This project studies the interrelationship between water installations, governance, and legal and cultural frameworks in five Middle Eastern cities (Basra, Baghdad, Mosul, Damascus and Cairo) from the first Arab conquests to Ottoman rule (7th-15th C). It seeks to: 1) map the institutional fabric of premodern Middle Eastern cities by taking water as a key service 2) identify incentives for institutional innovation in premodern urban water governance. Postdoctoral project - Water installations and waterways: An archaeological approach Your postdoctoral research approaches the two main objectives of the project from an archaeological perspective. You will have three main responsibilities within the project: 1) to analyse geospatial data and remaining visual features in the landscape of Iraq around Basra, Baghdad and Mosul, through the outcomes of the aerial survey based on photography and satellite imagery; 2) to examine archaeological publications and reports and contact archaeological teams for all five cities to gather data relevant to Source of Life and interpret these findings for the rest of the team; and 3) to supervise the GIS environment in close cooperation with the GIS specialists from the Radboud Humanities Lab.

2019 Schoenberg Symposium_Registration open!
by Ransom, Lynn 09 Sep '19

09 Sep '19

In partnership with the Rare Book Department of the Free Library of Philadelphia, the Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies (SIMS) at the University of Pennsylvania Libraries is pleased to announce: The 12th Annual Lawrence J. Schoenberg Symposium on Manuscript Studies in the Digital Age November 21-23, 2019 Hooking Up The concept of linked open data is the holy grail of the digital humanities. Yet the problem of how to link information across platforms has existed since civilization began. As knowledge and learning expanded in pre-modern society, the problems associated with collecting, combining, and disseminating information inspired new approaches to and technologies for the material text. In the internet age, we continue to grapple with the same problems and issues. While technologies have changed, the questions remain the same. This year's symposium explores the connections between historic and current approaches to data linkage in regard to manuscripts and manuscript research. Hooking Up addresses the topic from a variety of angles and considers how the manuscript book operates as a vehicle for information retrieval and dissemination from the technology of the page and the textual apparatus of a book, to the library, and finally, the internet. We will also consider such questions as how medieval practices of memory shaped information retrieval and gathering, how did the technology of the manuscripts book-in all its many forms-facilitate or hinder information processing, how can medieval solutions inform modern technologies, and how do modern technologies illuminate medieval practices? The program will also feature sessions highlighting projects that are advancing linked data technologies for manuscript researchers, including the T-AP Digging Into Data Challenge project Mapping Manuscript Migrations<http://mappingmanuscriptmigrations.org/>.

Call for Proposals Open for Global Digital Humanities Symposium - Deadline Nov 1
by Kristen Mapes 03 Sep '19

03 Sep '19

Dear colleagues, Please consider applying to present at this symposium, which includes work from across disciplines and timeframes. Best, Kristen Mapes *Global Digital Humanities Symposium* March 26-27, 2020 Michigan State University msuglobaldh.org *Call for Proposals* Deadline: November 1 Proposal form <http://www.msuglobaldh.org/submit-a-proposal/> Digital Humanities at Michigan State University is proud to extend its symposium series on Global DH into its fifth year, on March 26-27, 2020. Digital humanities scholarship continues to be driven by work at the intersections of a range of distinct disciplines and an ethical commitment to preserve and broaden access to cultural materials. In celebration of the 10th anniversary of MSU's Cultural Heritage Informatics Program <http://chi.anthropology.msu.edu/>, we particularly encourage proposals along that theme, but as always we strive to showcase DH work in all its forms. Alongside the expansion of digital humanities in under-resourced and underrepresented areas, a number of complex issues surface, including, among others, questions of ownership, cultural theft, virtual exploitation, digital rights, endangered data, and the digital divide. DH communities have raised and responded to these issues, pushing the field forward. This symposium is an opportunity to broaden the conversation about these issues. Scholarship that works across borders with foci on transnational partnerships and globally accessible data is especially welcome. Additionally, we define the term “humanities” rather broadly to incorporate the discussion of issues that encourage interdisciplinary understanding of the humanities. Focused on these issues of social justice, we invite work at the intersections of critical DH; race and ethnicity; feminism, intersectionality, and gender; and anti-colonial and postcolonial frameworks to participate. This symposium, which will include a mixture of presentation types, welcomes 300-word proposals related to any of these issues, and particularly on the following themes and topics by *Friday, November 1, midnight in your timezone*: - Critical cultural studies and analytics - Cultural heritage in a range of contexts, particularly non-Western - DH as socially engaged humanities and/or as a social movement - Open data, open access, and data preservation as resistance, especially in a postcolonial context - How identity categories, and their intersections, shape digital humanities work - Global research dialogues and collaborations within the digital humanities community - Indigeneity – anywhere in the world – and the digital - Digital humanities, postcolonialism, and neocolonialism - Global digital pedagogies - Borders, migration, and/or diaspora and their connection to the digital - Digital and global languages and literatures - Digital humanities, the environment, and climate change - Innovative and emergent technologies across institutions, languages, and economies - Scholarly communication and knowledge production in a global context - Surveillance and/or data privacy issues in a global context - Productive failure *Presentation Formats*: - 5-minute lightning talk - 15-minute presentation - 90-minute workshop - 90-minute panel - Poster presentation - There will be a limited number of slots available for 15-minute virtual presentations Please note that we conduct a double-blind review process, so please refrain from identifying your institution or identity in your proposal. *Submit a proposal here* <http://www.msuglobaldh.org/submit-a-proposal/> *Notifications of acceptance will be given by December 9, 2019* Kristen Mapes Assistant Director of Digital Humanities College of Arts and Letters Michigan State University kristenmapes.com kmapes(a)msu.edu kmapes86(a)gmail.com
