Manuscript Studies_ Announcements and CFP
by Ransom, Lynn 08 Aug '17

08 Aug '17

Manuscript Studies: A Journal of the Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies brings together scholarship from around the world and across disciplines related to the study of pre-modern manuscript books and documents. This peer-reviewed journal is open to contributions that rely on both traditional methodologies of manuscript study and those that explore the potential of new ones. We publish articles that engage in a larger conversation on manuscript culture and its continued relevance in today's world and highlight the value of manuscript evidence in understanding our shared cultural and intellectual heritage. Studies that incorporate digital methodologies to further understanding of the physical and conceptual structures of the manuscript book are encouraged. A separate section, entitled Annotations, features research in progress and digital project reports. For more information, go to http://mss.pennpress.org. The editors of Manuscript Studies are pleased to make the following announcements: * Thanks to a generous agreement with the University of Pennsylvania Press, all issues of Manuscript Studies will be available on an open access basis after one year from the date of publication. Articles and Annotations from our inaugural issue (Spring 2017) are now available for downloading and sharing. To access the pdfs, go to: http://repository.upenn.edu/mss_sims/. * The Spring 2017 special issue "Collectors and Collections in the History of Thai Manuscripts," guest-edited by Justin McDaniel, Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Pennsylvania, is now available on Project Muse through a subscription basis at https://muse.jhu.edu/issue/36157 * We are seeking submissions for the Fall 2018 issue and beyond.

JEAN BAPTISTE CAMPS I started my training in digital medieval scholarship with an MA in `Digital Technologies applied to History’ at the École des chartes in 2006-2008, with a thesis on the quantitative study of Troubadour Manuscripts. After working as a library curator, I did my PhD (Univ. Paris-Sorbonne) on the edition of the `Chanson d’Otinel’, with the aim to develop models to closely integrate ecdotics with digital methods (modelling, statistics, algorithmics and artificial intelligence), both for data production and analysis. I have been the course leader of the Master’s degree `Digital Technologies applied to History’ (2013-2017), and now supervise the new ‘Digital Humanities and Research’ (PSL Research University) Master’s programme. I teach Digital Scholarly Editing, XSLT and Quantitative Philology. My main research interests are in digital philology, text and data mining (stylometry, stemmatology, quantitative palaeography and codicology) and ecdotics for Old French and Old Occitan texts and manuscripts. LISA FAGIN DAVIS Lisa Fagin Davis (Medieval Studies PhD, Yale University, 1993) has been Executive Director of the Medieval Academy of America since 2013. Previously, she spent twenty years cataloguing pre-1600 manuscript collections across the US and has been involved in the development of metadata standards for manuscript cataloguing. She serves on the Advisory Committees for Digital Scriptorium, the Schoenberg Institute of Manuscript Studies, and Fragmentarium, and is deeply engaged in using and promoting both Mirador and IIIF. Publications include: the Beinecke Library Catalogue of Medieval and Renaissance Manuscripts, Vol. IV; The Gottschalk Antiphonary; the Directory of Pre-1600 Manuscripts in the United States and Canada (with Melissa Conway); numerous articles in the fields of manuscript studies and codicology; La Chronique Anonyme Universelle: Reading and Writing History in fifteenth-century France (a critical edition that includes a digital resource developed in collaboration with the Digital Mappaemundi project); and the Manuscript Road Trip blog. She regularly teaches an introduction to manuscript studies at the Simmons Graduate School of Library and Information Science. GRETA FRANZINI –STANDS FOR RE-ELECTION– Greta Franzini is a Classicist by training and currently conducts interdisciplinary research in Digital Classics, Digital Scholarly Editing and Natural Language Processing. Greta works as an early career researcher at the University of Goettingen for the Electronic Text Reuse Acquisition project, and, together with the Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities, jointly maintains the Catalogue of Digital Editions. Greta has served on the Digital Medievalist Executive and Journal Boards since 2015. In the past two years, Greta has modernised and maintained the Digital Medievalist website; she has managed the Digital Medievalist Facebook and Twitter accounts; she has helped secure reviews and has worked as an Associate Editor for the Digital Medievalist Journal; and finally, she has sought volunteers to help translate the Digital Medievalist Wikipedia page into multiple languages in order to increase outreach. Greta would like to continue working in this capacity and thus stands for re-election. ROBERTO DEL MONTE I have a Master’s degree in History of Medieval Art, obtained in 2013 at the University of Florence, Italy. For the past two years, I have been leading the NUME International Research Group, developing a digital network of scholars around the world, coordinating the organization of conferences on medieval studies, the publication of specialist studies, the creation of interdisciplinary events and digital projects (e.g. the 3D reconstruction of some Italian churches hit by an earthquake in 2016). I have published articles on History of Medieval Art in Italy and France, worked with scientific journals and attended international conferences. I have experience in networking management, editing and managing digital content: I would like to run for the Journal Associate Editor, News Feed Administrator or Facebook Administrator positions. ELS DE PAERMENTIER –STANDS FOR RE-ELECTION– Els De Paermentier is Assistant Professor in Medieval Diplomatics and Palaeography at Ghent University (Belgium). In 2010 she completed her PhD on the organisation of the comital chancery in the counties of Flanders and Hainaut (1191-1244). For her research she elaborated a computer-aided methodology to determine the editorial origin of charter texts. In 2012 she received a COST Action grant for a short term scientific mission at the Institut de Recherche et d’Histoire des Textes (IRHT) in Paris, where she examined the interoperability possibilities between the Belgian and French Latin source databases Diplomata Belgica and TELMA-databases (Traitement Électronique des Manuscrits et des Archives). Shortly afterwards she became a member of the COST Action Program IS1005: Medieval Europe – Medieval Cultures and Technological Resources, and joined the working group for the design of a virtual centre for medieval studies (VCMS) (2012-2015). Currently, she is a member of the advisory board of the online charter database Diplomata Belgica: The Diplomatic Sources from the Medieval Southern Low Countries and of the steering committee of the Ghent Centre for Digital Humanities (GhentCDH). ERIN SEBO Erin is a specialist on Anglo-Saxon heroic poetry and historical linguistics. She has taught at Monash University (Melbourne), University College Dublin, Trinity College Dublin and Queen’s University Belfast. She is currently Lecturer in Anglo-Saxon Literature at Flinders University (Adelaide). She is a collaborator with the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for the study of the History of Emotion and winner of the Faculty Prize for Excellence in Teaching. Her first monograph, In Enigmate: the history of a riddle from 400-1500, is forthcoming from Four Courts Press. After her PhD, she worked on two DH post-docs, The Psalms in Trinity at the Old Library at Trinity College Dublin, and The Psalms In Ireland Before 1600 based at Archbishop Marshes Library in Dublin. The aim of these projects was to provide context for the Faddan More Psalter (which had recently been discovered) by cataloguing and digitizing pre-modern psalmic material and providing a searchable database of psalmic marginalia. ENGIN CIHAD TEKIN Engin is working as academic advisor for a number of TUBİTAK’s (The Scientific and Technologcal Research Council of Turkey) digitization and Digital Humanitites projects. Previously, he has worked as an academic advisor to the Executive Board of Hacettepe University Technopolis for electronic documents and archival sources. He completed his PhD in Library and Information Science. His studies focus on European and Ottoman book history between 1450-1700. His dissertation discussed Ottoman Book Culture from the perspective of European Travellers between 1453-1699 with 122 European travellers. Engin has also built and managed Turkey’s first Digital Library Project ( pecya.com ) between 2006-2010. Pecya was funded by Turkey’s scientific state funds and it has a full text search cloud based library system with a digital copyright agreement of 220 foundations, archives and publishers in Turkey, as well as 3.5 million pages of copyrighted materials, manuscripts and rare books. Engin studies digital humanities, search engine technologies and digital technologies for text mining and new text technologies. He also focuses on rare books, Ottoman manuscripts, as well as book history and prohibited books of Europe. He is a member of the Islamic manuscript Association in Cambridge and he served as the Turkish representative for the Azerbaijani Institute of Manuscripts between 2010-2013. He is also working for his own Project- readment.com Structured Digital library Project. HEATHER WACHA As a CLIR Postdoctoral Fellow in Data Curation for Medieval Studies, I would be delighted to serve on the Digital Medievalist Executive Board. My interest and passion for the digital humanities began while I was working on my doctorate, when a GIS class showed me how to ask new research questions of my 13th-century sources. I was also interested in disseminating public history projects via digital media and decided to create a set of educational videos about medieval manuscripts. Since then I have taken on the digital edition of a 13th-century cartulary from northern France using TEI encoding, the editing of nine mappamundi in Digital Maxima, a software environment developed by Martin Foys, professor of English at the University of Wisconsin, and the use of social network analysis for visualizing the relationships between mappamundi and their textual sources. For medievalists, it is crucial we continue to recognize the benefits of using digital technologies in our discipline and I see my present and future careers helping myself and others put these technologies into practice. -- Alberto Campagnolo, PhD CLIR <https://www.clir.org/> Postdoctoral Fellow in Data Curation for Medieval Studies, Library of Congress <http://www.loc.gov/preservation/about/rt/> Digital Humanities & Archaeology of the book Researcher *Digital Medievalist Director <https://digitalmedievalist.wordpress.com/>* Mob. +1-202-766-9626 (USA) Mob. +44 (0)7917 793185 (UK) Mob. +39 347 11 67 355 (IT) LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/acampagnolo

Institute of Classical Studies Senate House, Malet Street, London WC1E 7HU Friday July 21, 2017 at 16:30 in room 234 *Issues in the development of digital projects based on user requirements. The case of Beta maṣāḥǝft* Dorothea Reule & Pietro Liuzzo (Hamburg) "Beta maṣāḥǝft: Manuscripts of Ethiopia and Eritrea” aims at building a research environment for data related to the Ethiopian and Eritrean manuscript tradition, encoding and relating manuscript descriptions, editions of literary works and records about ancient and modern places and persons. The challenges of meeting data entry users’ needs are keeping the schema canonical while enabling all necessary encoding, developing visualization choices on an individual basis without twisting the guidelines and enabling the execution of some tasks without XML knowledge. End users will expect comprehensive information on manuscripts, yet the resulting resource catalogue, navigable between entities, can be disorienting.

Plain text access to medieval manuscripts: 147 volumes indexed in the HIMANIS project
by Dominique Stutzmann 10 Jul '17

10 Jul '17

Dear all, Within the HIMANIS project, funded by the Joint Programming Initiative on Cultural Heritage and Global Change” (JPI-CH) of the European Union, the partners are developing cost-effective solutions for querying large sets of handwritten document images. With IRHT and A2iA (France), the Universities of Valencia (Spain) and Groningen (Netherlands) as well as the French National Archive, it gathers Computer Science, Humanities and Cultural Heritage institutions in order to produce technology to generate new, research-based knowledge from historical manuscripts. As a challenging and particularly interesting case study, we have indexed the large collection of the Trésor des Chartes’ registers produced by the French royal chancery (Paris, Archives Nationales, JJ7 – JJ209). *Now we are proud to announce that you can search the plain text in the Trésor des Chartes’ registers and provide feedback <http://prhlt-kws.prhlt.upv.es/himanis/>: It is ready to be used and tested by all interested users worldwide!* http://prhlt-kws.prhlt.upv.es/himanis/ <http://prhlt-kws.prhlt.upv.es/himanis/> This is a prototype and beta version, which will be amended and will change over the next months, with new functionalities (navigate through hits, display of abstracts and editions) and with additional volumes to be indexed from the French National Library and the National Archive.. The project website is: http://www.himanis.org/ The search interface into the corpus: http://prhlt-kws.prhlt.upv.es/ himanis/ <http://prhlt-kws.prhlt.upv.es/himanis/> Additional explanations about the interface: https://himanis.hypotheses. org/105 <https://himanis.hypotheses.org/105> You can search with boolean operators and word sequences (for the syntax, check on https://himanis.hypotheses. org/105 <https://himanis.hypotheses.org/105>) You can help us measuring the precision of our results: - please click on highlighted hits to confirm whether the word is correctly spotted or not; - please double click on a missed hit if you see it on the page (it will be added to the index for all users to search from the next day) Two simple examples as a beginning: - "scriptor" within the whole corpus: http://prhlt-kws.prhlt.upv.es/ himanis/index.php?q=scriptor& t=10&feedback=1 <http://prhlt-kws.prhlt.upv.es/himanis/index.php?q=scriptor&t=10&feedback=1> - "pelerinage" on one page : http://prhlt-kws.prhlt.upv.es/ himanis/index.php/ui/show/ chancery/147/853?q=pelerinage& t=50&feedback=1 <http://prhlt-kws.prhlt.upv.es/himanis/index.php/ui/show/chancery/147/853?q=…> The complete indexing results from an automated, image analysis process. You may find unexpected or false hits: for example, abbreviations are expanded automatically and it is needless to say that they are error-prone; likewise place and person names are slightly less well spotted. You can enhance the hit list by setting the "confidence" rate (between 0 and 100). We hope that you will be as thrilled as we are to present these results and we invite you to test, give feedback and send further comments, critics and suggestions to himanis(a)irht.cnrs.fr!

London Digital Classicist seminar: Collation Vosialization
by Simona Stoyanova 06 Jul '17

06 Jul '17

Institute of Classical Studies Senate House, Malet Street, London WC1E 7HU Friday July 7, 2017 at 16:30 in room 234 *Collation Visualization* *Helping Users to Explore Collated Manuscripts* Elisa Nury (King’s College London) The comparison of manuscripts and recording of variant readings is an essential, but challenging task towards the preparation of a scholarly edition. A large amount of detailed data is collected during collation, and needs to be analysed and visualized. In the recent years, the use of digital format has been increasingly incorporated within the collation workflow: from writing down variants in Word or Excel documents to adopting complex automated collation tools such as CollateX. This presentation will focus on a method to help scholars and readers visualize collation results of a Latin text in a digital format. Seminar will be livecast at: https://youtu.be/1YB_mFJ9SlQ Full abstract: http://www.digitalclassicist.org/wip/wip2017-06en.html ALL WELCOME -- Simona Stoyanova Research Fellow COACS project Institute of Classical Studies University of London Senate House Malet Street London WC1E 7HU Email: simona.stoyanova(a)sas.ac.uk Tel: +44 (0)20 7862 8724 <+44+%280%2920+7862+8724>
