Global Digital Humanities Symposium CFP - Deadline EXTENDED to Nov 18 + Keynote Announcement
by Kristen Mapes 15 Nov '18

15 Nov '18

We are thrilled to announce the conference keynote presentations for the 2019 Global DH Symposium! One of our keynote talks will be jointly delivered by Sylvia Fernández and Maira Álvarez, PhD candidates at the University of Houston and collaborators on the *Borderlands Archives Cartography* and *Torn Apart/Separados* projects. The second keynote talk will come from representatives of the *Native Land* project. We are also pleased to extend the proposal deadline for submissions until the end of the day on Sunday, November 18th. Please email *dh(a)msu.edu <dh(a)msu.edu>* with any questions about proposing. *Global Digital Humanities Symposium* March 21-22, 2019 MSU, Main Library, Green Room *msuglobaldh.org <http://msuglobaldh.org>* Call for Proposals *Deadline: November 18* *Proposal form* Digital Humanities at Michigan State University is proud to extend its symposium series on Global DH into its fourth year. 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. 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. Given the growth of these fields within the digital humanities, particularly 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. We view the 2019 symposium as 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. 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 *Sunday, November 18, midnight anytime:* · Critical cultural studies and analytics · Cultural heritage in a range of contexts · 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 · DH responses to crisis · How identity categories, and their intersections, shape digital humanities work · Global research dialogues and collaborations · 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 · The state of global digital humanities community · 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 *Presentation Formats:* · 5-minute lightning talk · 15-minute presentation · 90-minute workshop · 90-minute panel · 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. *Notifications of acceptance will be given by December 22, 2018* 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

History and Text analysis (Paris, 16-18 jan)
by Octave Julien 14 Nov '18

14 Nov '18

Dear colleagues, On January 16-18 2019, the Pireh (Pôle Informatique de Recherche et d'Enseignement en Histoire – Université Paris 1) is organizing at the Sorbonne a conference on the relationship between History, language and text analysis, with the support of the university Paris 1 Pantheon-Sorbonne and the Lamop (Laboratoire de Médiévistique Occidentale de Paris). Through 27 papers and 7 posters, the participants will explore the present uses of statistical and computational analysis of texts in history. Recent intellectual and technical developments invite us to rethink and redefine the way these tools can be used by historians, whether for combining history and linguistics, exploring or mining massive textual sources, or for enriching more traditional historical methods. Short texts and ego-documents, a type of source frequently used by historians will be the topic of a first session. Another group of papers will show how data mining can be used to explore and study large corpora of historical texts. A full session will be devoted to temporality in text analysis, an essential yet often neglected dimension in the work of historians. The last session will adress the relationship between language, concepts, and authority and the uses of text analysis in this field of study. Program, informations and registration: http://histlangtexto.sciencesconf.org Best regards, Stéphane Lamassé, Léo Dumont et Octave Julien

by Alberto Campagnolo 24 Oct '18

24 Oct '18

###### EXTENDED DEADLINE ###### ###### AIUCD 2019 - Call for Papers ###### 8th AIUCD Conference "Pedagogy, teaching, and research in the age of Digital Humanities" Udine, Italy, January 23th - 25th, 2019 Web site: http://aiucd2019.uniud.it ###### Important Dates ###### Extended Submission Deadline: 5th November 2018 Notification: 15th December 2018 ###### Call for Papers ###### The main topic of the AIUCD 2019 Conference is ‘Pedagogy, teaching, and research in the age of Digital Humanities’. The conference aims at reflecting on the new possibilities that the digital yields for pedagogy, teaching, and scholarly research: how will these transform teaching in the humanities? What contributions can humanistic cultural critique offer to the digital revolution? What is the connection with the digitization plan for Universities outlined by the Ministry? It also concerns the Digital Humanities as a new discipline, and this brings forward further considerations: how can the new professional figure of the digital humanist be developed? Which areas of knowledge define the Digital Humanities as a subject of study, research, and teaching? How can we recognise, classify, describe, and evaluate research efforts in the Digital Humanities? While open to other topics related to Digital Humanities, proposals for contributions are particularly encouraged on the following: General questions: - the epistemological positioning and area of knowledge of DH in relation to the systems of Academic Research Areas (Settori Scientifico-Disciplinari) and Recruiting in Italy; - the positioning of DH in the European and International academic systems; - the evaluation of research in DH beyond traditional publications; - dissemination, public history, and crowdsourcing within research projects; - the role of inter(multi-trans-cross)-disciplinary DH research in European projects, enquiry, and teaching. Pedagogy and teaching questions: - teaching DH: which models, technologies, and methods? - teaching the humanities in secondary schools and universities with DH tools; - teaching DH at the University: how is it taught today? - DH and media: production, dissemination, and analytical prospects - teaching history and DH; - DH and didactic strategies; - DH and hands-on teaching practices; - DH and primary source teaching; - Big Data methodologies and technologies in DH research and teaching. Questions concerning research efforts: - statistical and quantitative research methods and their teaching applications; - Data Science and the role of DH in the definition of new knowledge; - Information science and DH: meeting points and methodological integration; - cultural and social impact of humanities research with computational methodologies; - Semantic web technologies and linked open data in the humanities; - models and tools for knowledge representation in the humanities and the cultural heritage sector; - visualization methodologies and technologies and their significance for humanities and cultural heritage knowledge and information; - Natural Language Processing methodologies and applications for the humanities; - digitization methodologies and technologies for the production, preservation, and promotion of digital cultural heritage.
