Dear All, Some of you may be interested in the following invitation to participate in DíaHD (Día de Humanidades Digitales) to be held on 10th of June 2013. Similarly to DayofDH the aim of the project is to document for one day what digital humanists do. This particular version focuses on digital humanists from the Portuguese and Spanish speaking countries or researchers from other parts of the world that work primarily in these languages. We hope to provide a forum that will help us identify digital humanists in these regions as well as providing them with the opportunity to share their work. DíaHD is organized by: CenterNet Humanidades Digitales Hispánicas. Sociedad Internacional (HDH) Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Red de Humanidades Digitales (RedHD) Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas, Universidade Nova de Lisboa Humanidades Digitais, Universidade de São Paulo Please distribute as widely as possible. Isabel Galina (Red de Humanidades Digitales RedHD) -------- DíaHD Se convoca por primera vez el Día de las Humanidades Digitales. Inscríbanse antes del 10 de junio los interesados en proyectos en que concurren Humanidades y Cómputo enhttp://dhd2013.filos.unam.mx/ y participa. Un día en la vida de las Humanidades Digitales (Día HD) es un proyecto de publicación digital común abierta, que convoca a investigadores de todo el mundo interesados en las Humanidades Digitales (principalmente los que hablen o trabajen en español o portugués) para que documenten con texto e imagen (durante un día) las actividades que desarrollan. El objetivo del proyecto es ofrecer en un sitio web el panorama de la actividad desarrollada por los participantes congregados en el evento, de forma que se contribuya a dar respuesta a la pregunta: ¿qué es lo que hacen realmente los humanistas digitales?

This position has developed out of a collaborative research initiative between CHM and the International Diagnostics Centre (IDC) at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine on diagnostics for communicable disease. Recent research has demonstrated the importance of dynamic contextual processes and environmental factors in determining how individuals, populations, and health systems respond to novel technologies and disease control interventions. However, the role of socio-cultural factors is often unacknowledged in technology development, implementation, and assessments, with consequences for the uptake and efficacy of healthcare delivery and disease control in the population. The collaboration between CHM and IDC aims to promote cross-disciplinary research into diagnostic technologies, foregrounding the significance of socio-cultural contexts in the development, successful integration, and sustainable implementation of diagnostic technologies for infectious diseases in East Asia. The PhD candidate should have a Masters degree (with merit or distinction) or equivalent, preferably with a background in Science and Technology Studies, History of Medicine and Health, Anthropology, or Sociology. The PhD is for 36 months and the candidate is expected to register not later than January 1, 2014. Applications must be submitted via the standard on-line application process for HKU. For further information on research postgraduate education at Hong Kong University, application procedure and financial assistance, see http://www.gradsch.hku.hk/**gradsch/web/apply/index_ps.htm<http://www.gradsch.hku.hk/gradsch/web/apply/index_ps.htm> **. Full-time PhD students who hold a first degree with second-class honors first division (or equivalent) or above are normally considered eligible to receive a Postgraduate Studentship during the normative study period. Candidates' results in Master's degrees may also be considered. The basic level of studentship is currently HK$13,600 (US$1,740) per month (subject to revision). Candidates may also apply for other financial awards. The Hong Kong PhD Fellowship (HKPF) provides each awardee with a monthly studentship of HK$20,000 and a conference and research related travel allowance of HK$10,000 per year for a period up to three years. The deadline for application is 31 August 2013. Applicants who have applied for the HKPF will be automatically considered for the award of University Postgraduate Fellowships (UPF) of HK$70,000 in addition to the Postgraduate Studentships.

AroundDH in 80 Days Editorial Board et Misc
by Alex Gil 02 Jun '13

02 Jun '13

Hi all, It's time to put together the editorial board for the Around DH project<http://www.globaloutlookdh.org/working-groups/491-2/>. Ryan Cordell's class has done a great job of getting us started. We are getting ready to move to next stage of development which involves refining the design and translating the work into as many languages as we have volunteers for. Here's how you can help: a) Nominate someone or volunteer to be part of the Editorial Board that makes final decisions on the sites for inclusion. We need at least 1 representative from each of the areas defined in our spreadsheet<http://www.globaloutlookdh.org/working-groups/491-2/>. We already have somebody for Western Europe, Amelia Sanz, who volunteered a long time ago. Contact me directly if you want to be part of the jury/board. b) Can your team help with translation of the whole site once it's done? We would like for the actual project to travel around the world before we launch to the general public. What better way than to have it duplicated in different languages. It's written in Scalar (so far) so we will ask for different teams to take over hosting for individual language versions. To talk about the details contact me directly. c) Can your team help with design? We just need one team for this. Again contact me directly. My email is colibri.alex(a)gmail.com #arounddh A.

Results of Who are you, Digital Humanists? - Call for translation
by Marin Dacos 02 Jun '13

02 Jun '13

Dear friends, I have published a blog post concerning the results of the survey "Who are you, Digital Humanists?". In French. I would like to submit this paper in at least a journal in english and French, but in a spanish-speaking journal, I think it would be important, too. http://blog.homo-numericus.net/article11138.html For this reason, I am looking for people willing to translate it in other languages!

CFP Reminder: Special Issue of The College English Association (Spring 2014): Digital Humanities Pedagogy
by Iantorno, Luke 01 Jun '13

01 Jun '13

The editors of The CEA Critic recently accepted our proposal for a special issue on Digital Humanities Pedagogy (Spring 2014). We imagined having this special issue move beyond digital humanities theory to practical application with articles addressing pedagogical approaches to introducing undergraduates to one or more aspects of digital humanities: * transcribing, metadata writing, annotating, and basic TEI coding in conjunction with a startup or established digitization project * datamining: creating narratives of digital texts based on searched terms or defining search terms for future researchers * using digital editions to teach students paratextual influence * analyzing and evaluating the vitality of and scholarly rigor within digital editions with ancillary editorial apparatuses versus open-source digital libraries (e.g. Project Gutenburg, Internet Archive, Google Books, Gale databases) * using TEI tags to enhance research skills and develop annotation awareness as both creator and user * writing hyperlinked annotations as a tool to increase scholarship and boost students’ researching skills * collaborating across disciplines to engage the non-humanities major in digital humanities projects Proposals for the 3,000-5,000-word articles should not exceed 500 words. Please submit proposals to digitalhumanities(a)ttu.edu<mailto:digitalhumanities@ttu.edu> by 15 June 2013. All queries should also be sent to the aforementioned email address. Please consult The CEA Critic site for formatting guidelines: http://www.cea-web.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=15&Item… Luke Iantorno Department of English The Digital Humanities Laboratory, Project Manager Texas Tech University "Revolutions exhibit man acting on a great scale: hence they produce great virtues, and at the same time great vices." -- Helen Maria Williams, 1793.

blog post about DH & language politics
by David Golumbia 31 May '13

31 May '13

Dear list colleagues, I've been promising to write up some more of my thoughts about the relationship of DH to the world politics of language, and I've now managed to put up a blog post about it: "Postcolonial Studies, Digital Humanities, and the Politics of Language" http://www.uncomputing.org/?p=241 It's about half of a longer essay version, which I figured I might submit to DSCN once I finish polishing it up.
