Global Digital Humanities Symposium CFP - Submissions due Nov 15!
by Kristen Mapes 02 Oct '18

02 Oct '18

Dear colleagues, Please note the following event. While not specifically about the middle ages, the symposium welcomes proposals from all time periods and geographies, including those engaged in the medieval, and especially the global medieval. Sincerely, Kristen Mapes *Global Digital Humanities Symposium* March 21-22, 2019 MSU, Main Library, Green Room msuglobaldh.org <http://www.msuglobaldh.org/> Call for Proposals Deadline: November 15 Proposal form <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd8WhgGPBMvMhni-uv80BGNI1cVFW2GatY…> 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 <http://endangereddataweek.org/>, 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 *Thursday, November 15, 11:59pm EST:* - 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

Apologies for cross-posting and please share widely ================================ DIGITAL HUMANITIES 2019: “COMPLEXITIES” - CALL FOR PAPERS Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations Utrecht University (The Netherlands) Paper/Poster/Panel deadline: 11:59pm GMT 27 November 2018 Workshop/Tutorial deadline: 11:59pm GMT, 10 January 2019 Workshops: 8-9 July 2019 Conference: 9-12 July 2019 http://dh2018.adho.org<http://dh2018.adho.org/> @DH2019_NL Email: dh2019(a)adho.org<http://adho.org> I: GENERAL INFORMATION The Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations (ADHO) invites submission of proposals for its annual conference. The theme of the 2019 conference is Complexities. This theme has a multifaceted connection with Digital Humanities scholarship. Complexities intends to inspire people to focus on DH as the humanist way of building complex models of complex realities, analysing them with computational methods and communicating the results to a broader public. The theme also invites people to think of the theoretical, social, and cultural complexity and diversity in which DH scholarship is immersed and asks our community to interact consciously and critically in myriad ways, through the conference and the networks, institutions and the enterprises interested in DH research. Finally, it means involving the next generation, teaching DH to students - the people who will need to deal with the complexities of the future. Proposals related to these themes are particularly welcome, but the Conference will accept submissions on any other aspect or field of Digital Humanities. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: * Theoretical, epistemological, methodological or historical aspects of Digital Humanities; * Digital and computational approaches and applications in literary and linguistic fields, including computational text analysis, stylometry, authorship attribution, natural language processing and computational linguistics, digital philology and textual scholarship; * Digital and computational approaches and applications in archaeology, architecture, and art history, including image processing, 3D modeling, digital restoration; * Digital history, geographic information systems applications in spatial humanities and historical studies, public history; * Digital approaches in music, film, theatre, and media studies; electronic art and literature, games studies, hacker culture, networked communities, digital divides, digital activism, open/libre networks and software, etc.; * Cultural heritage, digital cultural studies and research undertaken by digital cultural institutions * Social, cultural, and political aspects of Digital Humanities including digital feminisms, digital indigenous studies, digital cultural and ethnic studies, digital black studies, digital queer studies, digital geopolitical studies, multilingualism and multiculturalism in DH, eco-criticism and environmental humanities as they intersect with the Digital Humanities; * Emerging technologies such as physical computing, single-board computers, minimal computing, wearable devices, and haptic technologies applied to humanities research; * Institutional aspects of DH, interdisciplinary aspects of scholarship, open science, public humanities, societal engagement and impact of DH; * Digital Humanities pedagogy and academic curricula; * Digital Research infrastructures, digital libraries and virtual research environment, critical infrastructure studies, media archaeology, etc.; * Any other theme pertaining to the Digital Humanities The primary language of the conference will be English, but we warmly invite proposals written in other languages for which we have a sufficient pool of peer reviewers (German, Italian, French and Spanish). Presentations may include: * Posters (abstract maximum 750 words) * Short papers (abstract maximum 1 000 words) * Long papers (abstract maximum 1 500 words) * Multiple-paper panels (500-word abstracts + 500-word overview) * Pre-conference workshops and tutorials (proposal maximum 1 500 words) The deadline for submitting poster, short paper, long paper, and multiple-paper panel proposals to the international Program Committee is 11:59pm GMT 27 November 2018. Presenters will be notified of acceptance by March 3 2019. The deadline for submitting workshops and tutorials, , is 11:59pm GMT, 10 January 2019, with notice of acceptance by 3 March 2019. Proposal must be submitted via https://www.conftool.pro/dh2019/. DH2019 will use double-blind peer review. To facilitate this process, please remove all identifying information from your proposal submission including author name(s) and affiliation(s), project URLs, etc.. When submitting proposals, previous Digital Humanities conference participants and reviewers should use their existing ConfTool account rather than setting up new ones. If you have forgotten your username or password, please contact Program Committee Co-chairs Fabio Ciotti: fabio [dot] ciotti [at] uniroma2 [dot] it or Elena Pierazzo: elena [dot] pierazzo [at] univ-grenoble-alpes [dot] fr. To facilitate the production of the conference abstract book, authors of accepted papers will be asked to submit final approved versions of their abstracts via the DHConvalidator, available through ConfTool, which creates a TEI text base of conference abstracts for further processing. Presenters are encouraged to familiarize themselves with Global Outlook::Digital Humanities’ Translation Toolkit to prepare for a multilingual conference. This includes guidelines and best practices for multilingual slides/posters/handouts and ad hoc community translation: http://go-dh.github.io/translation-toolkit/conferences/. Similarly, participants are strongly encouraged to make themselves aware of current recommendations for accessibility of presentations and multimedia-based materials. Please review the World Wide Web Consortium’s Web Initiative Guidelines on Presentation Accessibility: https://www.w3.org/WAI/training/accessible. II: TYPES OF PROPOSALS Proposals may be of five types: (1) poster presentations; (2) short paper presentations; (3) long papers; (4) multiple-paper panels; (5) pre-conference workshops and tutorials. Short paper and poster proposals are especially welcome and, based on peer review and its mandate to create a balanced and varied program, the Program Committee may offer acceptance in a different category from the one initially proposed. The committee will not normally accept more than a total of two submissions from one primary or co-author. Papers and posters may be given in English, French, German, Italian or Spanish. All proposals should include relevant citations to sources in the appropriate literature. Citations are not to be included in the word count. Additionally, proposals that concentrate on a particular tool or digital resource should cite non-digital as well as computer-based approaches to the problem. Poster Presentations Poster proposals (abstract maximum: 750 words) may describe work on any specific topics or methods or present projects and software tools in any stage of development. Poster presentations are intended to be interactive with the opportunity to exchange ideas one-on-one with attendees. Posters are in no way considered lesser forms of presentation at the DH conference and are subject to the same strict peer review as other presentation types. Submissions in this category are strongly encouraged. Short Papers Short paper proposals (abstract maximum: 1000 words) are intended to be dynamic 10-minute presentations appropriate for reporting on experiments or works in progress or for describing tools or software in development. Short-paper sessions seek to open dialogues among scholars working on related topics. Short papers are in no way considered lesser forms of presentation at the DH conference and are subject to the same strict peer review as other presentation types. Submissions in this category are strongly encouraged. Long Papers Proposals for long papers (abstract maximum: 1500 words) should deal with substantial or completed research; report the development of significant new methodologies or digital resources; or present rigorous theoretical, speculative, or critical discussions. Individual papers will be allocated 20 minutes for presentation and 10 minutes for questions. Proposals relating to the development of new computing methodologies or digital resources should indicate how the methods are applied to research and/or teaching in the humanities and what their impact has been in formulating and addressing research questions. They should also include critical assessments of their application in the humanities as well as of the computing methodologies used. Multiple Paper Panels Panels (abstract maximum: 500 words for overview, plus 500 words for each paper) should focus on a single theme and be inherently coherent in presenting a substantial body of research or a research question. Panel submissions which do not meet this criterion and which could function as individual papers will not normally be accepted. A panel should be conceived as a 90-minute session of four to six speakers. Since the conference offers an important occasion to attract new scholars from diverse backgrounds to specific research areas, those submitting proposals for panels are advised to ensure that the constitution of the panel reflects the constitution of the field and/or research topic that is being addressed and ADHO’s expressed commitment to diversity or to explicitly address problems in those areas. In case the proposer’s own network is too limited, the Program Committee can advise them prior to submission on whom to contact to broaden the panel. Please contact the PC chairs Fabio Ciotti fabio [dot] ciotti [at] uniroma2 [dot] it or Elena Pierazzo elena [dot] pierazzo [at] univ-grenoble-alpes [dot] fr if you need advice. Pre-Conference Workshops and Tutorials Tutorials are normally half-day intensive introductions to specific techniques, software packages, or theoretical approaches with a small number of participants. Workshop proposals may take many forms, including proposals with a full slate of speakers and presentations, as well as proposals to issue an independent call for papers from which submissions will be chosen. Participants in pre-conference workshops and tutorials will be expected to register for the full conference as well as pay a small additional fee to the conference. Workshops are expected to be self-financing in terms of hardware and software needs. Proposals should provide the following information: * Title and brief description of the content or topic and its relevance to the Digital Humanities community (not more than 1500 words); * Full contact information for all tutorial instructors or workshop leaders, including a one-paragraph statement summarizing their research interests and areas of expertise; * Description of target audience and expected number of participants (based, if possible, on past experience); and * Special requirements for technical support. Additionally, tutorial proposals should include: * A brief outline showing that the core content can be covered in a half-day (approximately 3 hours, plus breaks). In exceptional cases, full-day tutorials may be supported. And workshop proposals must include: * Intended length and format of the workshop (minimum half-day; maximum one-and-a-half days); * Any special requirements for attendees, including software installation (the conference will handle traditional technological support, but workshop organizers are expected to manage specific needs such as access to software, servers, etc.). * If the workshop is to have its own call for participation, a deadline and date for notification of acceptances, and a list of individuals who have agreed to be part of the workshop’s Program Committee. As with Multiple Paper Panel proposals, those submitting proposals for pre-conference workshops are advised to ensure that the constitution of the workshop reflects the constitution of the field and/or research topic that is being addressed and ADHO’s expressed commitment to diversity, or explicitly address problems in those areas. In case the proposer’s own network is too limited, the Program Committee can advise them before submission on whom to contact to broaden the panel. Please contact the PC chairs Fabio Ciotti fabio [dot] ciotti [at] uniroma2 [dot] it or Elena Pierazzo elena [dot] pierazzo [at] univ-grenoble-alpes [dot] fr if you need advice. N.B. Pre-conference workshops endorsed by ADHO Special Interest Groups (SIGs) will be considered via separate calls put out by SIG conveners and will not be evaluated in the general academic program review process. III: ADHO CONFERENCE CODE OF CONDUCT The Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations (ADHO) is dedicated to creating a safe, respectful, and collegial conference environment for the benefit of everyone who attends and for the advancement of research and scholarship in fields supported by our constituent organizations. The ADHO Digital Humanities conference Code of Conduct is available at http://adho.org/administration/conference-coordinating-program-committee/ad…. All people submitting proposals to DH2018 should observe and uphold it. IV: VENUE DH2019 will take place at the TivoliVredenburg music theatre in the city centre of Utrecht, the Netherlands, and is hosted by the Faculty of Humanities at Utrecht University.

CfP - AIUCD2019 ‘Pedagogy, teaching, and research in the age of Digital Humanities’
by Alberto Campagnolo 19 Sep '18

19 Sep '18

With Apologies for Cross-posting 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. DEADLINES The deadline for submitting proposals is the 25th October 2018 (h. 23.59 CET ). Notifications of acceptance will be sent to the authors by 15th December 2018.

11th Annual Schoenberg Symposium_Registration open!
by Ransom, Lynn 17 Sep '18

17 Sep '18

In partnership with the Rare Book Department<https://libwww.freelibrary.org/rarebooks/index.cfm> of the Free Library of Philadelphia, the Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies (SIMS<http://schoenberginstitute.org/>) at the University of Pennsylvania is pleased to announce the 11th Annual Lawrence J. Schoenberg Symposium on Manuscript Studies in the Digital Age: IIlluminations: Manuscript, Medium, Message<https://www.library.upenn.edu/about/events/kislak/SIMS/ljs-symposium11> November 15-17, 2018 Manuscript illumination has often been considered in relation to the texts it accompanies, but rarely in terms of its interplay with other artistic media. Historically, however, the technique was closely associated with other forms of artistic expression and served as a crucial point of contact and transfer for visual motifs across space and time. The goal of this year's symposium is to examine cases of intermedial exchange through the lenses of technique, style, iconography, social context, and cultural geography, while also posing broader questions about the deep connections between the craft of illumination and other arts more widely. Of special interest will be insights gained from the technical examination of works in different media, new comparisons made possible by digital technology, and the discovery of linkages once obscured by strict historiographical divisions The program will begin Thursday evening at 5:00 pm on November 15, 2018, at the Free Library of Philadelphia, Parkway Central Library, with a keynote lecture by Professor Susie Nash of the Courtauld Institute of Art. The symposium will continue November 16th-17th at the Kislak Center of Special Collections, Rare Books, and Manuscripts at the University of Pennsylvania.

Dear colleagues, On November 7-8, 2018 we are organising a two-day workshop on digital humanities infrastructure and cultural heritage modelling at the Helsinki Centre for Digital Humanities (HELDIG). Core people of the DH Lab at UCLA (Annelie Rugg and Anthony Caldwell) will share their experiences. The idea is that this is a good chance to develop our thoughts about DH infrastructure, teaching and research at the University of Helsinki and beyond. The workshop is well suited for memory organisations as well. Please remember to sign up in time because the places at the workshop are limited. For more information, see: http://heldig.fi/ucla-dh-workshop-nov-2018 Best regards, Jouni Tuominen -- Jouni Tuominen, Coordinating researcher Helsinki Centre for Digital Humanities (HELDIG) University of Helsinki and Aalto University HELDIG: Room A130, Metsätalo, Unioninkatu 40, Helsinki Aalto: Room B126, Computer Science Building, Konemiehentie 2, Espoo +358 50 556 0402 http://seco.cs.aalto.fi/u/jwtuomin/

[Apologies for cross-posting] Dear colleagues, One of the main aims of the project POSTDATA is to provide a means to publish European poetry data as Linked Open Data (LOD). With this goal in mind, we created a common data model that must cover any relevant concepts to carry out research about European poetry. The project is very ambitious, and we cannot develop it successfully without your collaboration. What do we need from you? We would like you to select any poetic resource of your interest and try to fill in this form <http://postdata-model-validation.linhd.es> about it with any pertinent information for your research. In exchange for your collaboration, whenever the validation process is over, you will receive an RDF dataset with the data you provided in this form. Thank you very much for your collaboration!
