Digital Classicist seminar: Reading text with GIS
by Gabriel BODARD 20 Jun '16

20 Jun '16

Digital Classicist London 2016 Seminar Institute of Classical Studies Senate House, Malet Street, London WC1E 7HU Friday June 24th at 16:30 in room 234 *Dr Stuart Dunn (KCL)* *Reading text with GIS:* Different digital lenses for Ancient World Geography Texts and geography have always gone together, with recent focus on semantic annotation and extraction of place names from texts. This presentation will reflect on how conventional GIS techniques can sit alongside close reading. Using an example from the Heritage Gazetteer of Cyprus, we will reflect on how GIS methods can be used to interrogate a modern text which describes ancient places. A section of the itinerary in George Jeffery’s Description of the Historic Monuments of Cyprus (1918) will be “remediated” using landscape analysis functions available in QuantumGIS. We will conclude with some general reflections on the use of GIS methods with textual and other qualitative material. http://digitalclassicist.org/wip/wip2016.html ALL WELCOME The seminar will also be screencast on the Digital Classicist YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIamtu1Z62wL5XRk2mE8HKw -- 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/

And why produce online editions in an open access environment? This seminar explores the many benefits, from ensuring editorial consistency to maximising accessibility for readers and researchers. I will explore the principles and practice with examples from my current work, which happens to deal with newly excavated cuneiform tablets from southern Iraq, from a previously little-documented period of Babylonian history. But the same basic theories and methods are relevant to all periods, places, and genres of text, and are useful to think about for both creators and users of text editions. http://www.digitalclassicist.org/wip/wip2016.html ALL WELCOME -- 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/

MATLIT, v. 5 (2017): Call for Papers & Call for Sounds
by Nuno Neves 06 Jun '16

06 Jun '16

MATLIT, 2017, vol. 5 *VOX MEDIA: O Som na Literatura | Sound in Literature | El Sonido en la Literatura* Editores: Osvaldo Manuel Silvestre (Universidade de Coimbra) Felipe Cussen (Universidade de Santiago do Chile) MATLIT’s volume 5 is intent on exploring what we call literature as VOX MEDIA: voice as a means for literature and the disturbances suffered by the medium from the combined effect of performance and the technologies for mediation, representation and reproduction. And also other instances, like the tensions between the body and technology, audibility v. inaudibility of text, sound and meaning, physical presence and/or absence of the authors, and so forth. The goal is not only that of generating a catalogue or a compendium of the contemporary effects of VOX MEDIA on the notion of literature, but that of generating an archaeology for VOX MEDIA and for all related phenomena repressed by their historical invisibility. Submissions must be uploaded before *October 31, 2016*. Prior to submission, authors have to register in the journal system: http://iduc.uc.pt/index.php/matlit/login Please see author guidelines: http://iduc.uc.pt/index.php/matlit/about/submissions MATLIT, 2017, vol. 5 *VOX MEDIA: O Som na Literatura | Sound in Literature | El Sonido en la Literatura* Editores: Nuno Miguel Neves e Tiago Schwäbl (Programa de Doutoramento FCT em Materialidades da Literatura) Call for Sounds (MATLIT vol.5) <https://matlit.files.wordpress.com/2016/06/matlit_call-for-papers_vox-media…> Given the relevance of a study of the different forms of material inscription to a more complete version, simultaneously modern and archaic, of literature that is not limited to the idea of text as merely “letters printed on paper”, volume 5 of MATLIT, to be printed in 2017 under the general theme of Vox Media, opens a call for compositions that fit either aesthetic or conceptually within sound poetry, text-sound composition, sound art, or similar practices. The sound-works submitted should not have been published before and they should have a maximum duration of 10 minutes. They should be sent to voxmedia.uc(a)gmail.com in one of the following formats: .mp3, .m4a, or .wav. The email should also include the following information: 1. Personal Info: Name and bio (between 100 and 150 words). 2. Details of the work: Title, length, concept description (up to a maximum of 200 words). 3. Installation: How should the work be listened to (ex: headset or speakers). Deadline Audio files must be submitted by *December 31, 2016*. The authors of the works selected for publication in volume 5 of MATLIT will be notified by February 28, 2017. The publication of volume 5 is scheduled for June 2017. https://matlit.wordpress.com/2016/06/06/matlit-v-5-2017-call-for-papers/ <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campai…> Sem vírus. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campai…> <#DDB4FAA8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>

by Franz Fischer 05 Jun '16

05 Jun '16

[On behalf of Elli Bleeker] Dear digital medievalists, **with apologies for the inevitable cross-posting** We are pleased to announce a three-day workshop "Code and Collation: Training Textual Scholars" that takes place in Amsterdam (The Netherlands) from 2 - 4 November 2016. The event is part of the DiXiT network <http://dixit.uni-koeln.de/> and is hosted by the Huygens Institute for the History of the Netherlands <https://www.huygens.knaw.nl/?lang=en>. It brings together a group of international experts from the fields of textual scholarship and computer science. The workshop engages with the theory and practice of semi-automated collation and provides an intense training in the open source collation program CollateX. Participants will learn how to prepare source materials, how to perform semi-automated collation using CollateX, and how to inspect and modify the results; they will acquire or improve computational skills relevant to textual criticism and in particular to the production of scholarly editions. Registration is now open and free of charge. Early registration is recommended since there are limited places available. Detailed information can be found at the website: https://sites.google.com/site/dixitcodingcollation/. For all questions, do not hesitate to get in touch at dixitcollation[at]gmail[dot]com. We are looking forward to welcoming you in Amsterdam! On behalve of the organising committee, --Elli Bleeker University of Antwerp Centre for Manuscript Genetics
