CfP: Paratexts in Premodern Writing Cultures (Ghent, 24-25 June 2024)
by Rachele Ricceri 29 Sep '23

29 Sep '23

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. With apologies for cross-posting The Database of Byzantine Book Epigrams project<http://www.projectdbbe.ugent.be/> (DBBE) will organize a conference on "Paratexts in Premodern Writing Cultures", which will take place in Ghent on 24-25 June 2024. The study of paratexts has become increasingly crucial to the understanding of premodern book culture. The growing scholarly attention to the historical and cultural significance of the material features of textual supports has led to a keen interest in these texts that according to Genette's definition are situated on the threshold between the extratextual and the textual. They can be studied as unique vectors of knowledge, as testimonies to a history of reading, and as indications for spiritual, cultural, and economic motivations behind book production and consumption. Since its inception in 2010, the DBBE project has aimed to collect Byzantine book epigrams (or: metrical paratexts) in an open-access online database<http://www.dbbe.ugent.be/>, conceived and developed with an interdisciplinary approach. Book epigrams, in the Byzantine Greek tradition, are poems that provide us with more information about the books they are written in. In many of these poems, scribes, patrons, and book owners reveal their presence and feelings, by means of colophons, prayers, and dedicatory epigrams. Book epigrams may also comment on the texts transmitted in the manuscripts and their authors, or on the miniatures that appear in books. In other book epigrams the readers are addressed and involved in an imaginary dialogue with the scribe or with the book itself. The paratextual dimension of book epigrams turns out to be a fascinating aspect that connects book culture with broader historical questions. With this conference we aim to bring together scholars engaged in the exploration of premodern paratexts transmitted in a variety of languages (such as Arabic, Armenian, Greek, Coptic, Hebrew, Latin, Slavonic, Syriac). It is our aim to discuss the nature of paratextuality in medieval manuscripts, to reveal similarities and peculiarities of paratexts across language borders, and to understand the broader cultural and historical ramifications of paratexts. We are interested both in the textual evidence of medieval paratexts and in their material transmission. A crucial aspect of the DBBE project has been its commitment to the development of innovative digital tools. In tandem with the thematic conference, we will also organize a workshop (on 26 June 2024) where computational approaches to the study of premodern languages are discussed. This workshop aims to stimulate an exchange of technical knowledge and good practices and to address the challenges of interoperability and sustainability. More information on this workshop (and a call for papers) will follow in due course. We invite proposals both for 20-minute papers, and for poster pitches (5-10 minutes). Possible topics may include, but are not limited to, any of the following: 1. Theoretical elaborations on the concept and definitions of paratext. Genette's framework includes the concept of paratext as the general term for referring both to peritexts (elements within a book), and epitexts (elements outside of a book). However, Genette's terminology avowedly applies only to the age of the printed book. When applying the concept of "paratext" to manuscript culture, crucial parameters change which alter its essence. Our corpus of book epigrams, for example, rather corresponds to the definition of "peritext". Hence, which theoretical and terminological frameworks can we adopt to better understand extratextual elements typical of premodern writing cultures? 2. New evidence. Which corpora of paratexts are still unexplored and worth being delved into and edited? 3. Texts and objects. How are paratexts displayed? To which extent can they supersede the appearance of the main text, being more visible and evident on the material support they appear? 4. Methodological elaborations that can be interesting from an intercultural or cross-language perspective. How is similar content (e.g., personal information on scribes, the physical labor of writing, indications of dating, reference to the length of the main text) expressed in different traditions? Which features of paratexts are common to any premodern writing culture, and which are cultural idiosyncrasies? 5. Formal features of paratexts. How does the metrical status of paratexts impact their visual or literary status? How is their language different from that of the main text? How can we approach the formulaic nature of many paratexts? Please submit a title and a short abstract (approx. 300 words excluding references) of your paper to dbbe(a)ugent.be<mailto:dbbe@ugent.be> (subject "Paratexts - abstract") no later than 15 November 2023. Abstracts should be attached as a PDF file named with the name of the presenters. Full names of the speakers, contact details and affiliation should be clearly written on top of the text. Please indicate whether you want to participate with either a paper or a poster pitch. Accepted speakers will be notified by mid-December. Please note that we are considering the possibility of publishing selected papers presented at the conference. More information will be provided at a later stage. For any further information, please visit our conference website (https://www.dbbe2024.ugent.be<https://www.dbbe2020.ugent.be/>). We look forward to hearing from you, please reach out at dbbe(a)ugent.be<mailto:dbbe@ugent.be> for any enquiries.

Dear DM community, We are the Innovating Knowledge project (Huygens Institute, Amsterdam) have just gone through the annual post-project update of the project's database of the early medieval manuscripts transmitting the Etymologiae of Isidore of Seville. This is the second annual update after the official end of the project in August 2021, so we are quite excited that it could take place. The current database version (2.3.4) now contains detailed information on 496 manuscripts (up from 492 last year). The database can be accessed at: https://db.innovatingknowledge.nl/. The data corresponding to v2.3.4 is published at: https://zenodo.org/record/8378866. You can read more on the project at: https://innovatingknowledge.nl/. We are still experiencing some difficulties with the display of images, but once they are sorted, the database will also include images of 428 manuscripts. Also, 381 of the manuscripts are digitized, and for 305, we include a IIIF manifest, so that they can be browsed via an integrated viewer directly in the database environment. Manuscripts with IIIF manifests are discernible by a small IIIF logo underneath the sample image (the viewer can be accessed by clicking on the logo). <image.png> I hope you will find the database useful and the data reusable. The project is no longer actively funded, so we, unfortunately, can no longer fix the code or make any major technical changes, but if you spot any errors in the data, have information to add that you are willing to share, or know of manuscripts that you think should be included in this exhaustive survey of what survives and is known from before the year 1000, let me know.
