Call for Nominations: 2019 Busa Prize
by Hannah L Jacobs 25 Apr '17

25 Apr '17

**Please share. Apologies for cross-posting!** Call for Nominations: 2019 Busa Prize https://adho.org/announcements/2017/call-nominations-2019-busa-prize The *Roberto Busa Prize* is an award of the Alliance of Digital Humanities Organisations (ADHO). It is named in honour of Father Roberta Busa, the first pioneer of humanities computing, who in 1949 began experiments in linguistic automation, with the support of the IBM offices in New York and Milan, as part of his analytical research on the writings of Thomas Aquinas. The computational work was central to the thirty years of research whose published output was the 56-volume Index Thomisticus, completed in 1980. The Busa award is given to recognise outstanding lifetime achievements in the application of information and communications technologies to humanities research. The award is given every three years, alternating with other ADHO awards, such as the Zampolli award. The first award was given to Father Busa himself in 1998. Subsequent winners have been John Burrows (2001), Susan Hockey (2004), Wilhelm Ott (2007), Joe Raben (2010), Willard McCarty (2013), and Helen Agüera (2016). The *Busa Award Committee* invites *nominations* for the *2019* Prize. Nominations should include a letter outlining the nominee's lifetime achievements and explaining how they constitute an outstanding contribution to the field. A bibliographic list of nominee's work, while not mandatory, would be welcome. Neither nominators nor nominees need be members of ADHO's constituent organisations. *Nominations* should be emailed to Constance Crompton, Chair of the Busa Awards Committee, at ccrompto(a)uottawa.ca by *October 1, 2017*. Nominees will be welcome to submit updates to the nomination in the fall of 2017. The winner will be announced at DH2018 and will receive the award at DH2019. The recipient of the award receives 2000 Euros and is expected to give a keynote or plenary lecture (on a topic of their choice) at the 2019 Digital Humanities conference. ADHO will host the recipient as a guest of honour for the conference at which the Prize is awarded and the lecture given-this means that all travel, accommodation and subsistence costs of the Prize recipient will be paid by the Alliance.

Digital Humanities: An Intercultural Dialogue
by Ernesto Priego 20 Apr '17

20 Apr '17

With apologies for cross posting, a kind reminder of this event taking place on April 20th in Rome. It will be live streamed from http://streaming.uniroma3.it/. Best regards, Ernesto Dear all, I thought the following would be of interest to the members of this list. Text below abridged from full version at my blog, https://epriego.wordpress.com/2017/04/06/digital-humanitieshumanidades- digitalesinformatica-umanistica/. The event titled “Digital Humanities/Humanidades Digitales/Informatica Umanistica. An Intercultural Dialogue” that will take place on Thursday 20 April 2017 in Rome, at the Political Science Department of the Università degli Studi Roma Tre <http://www.uniroma3.it/>. This event has been organised by Domenico Fiormonte <https://twitter.com/fiormont>, and will gather members of the *Knowmetrics * <http://knowmetrics.org/equipo/>research project based at the Medialab <http://medialab.ugr.es/>at the Universidad de Granada. The speakers at this event will be - *Barbara Bordalejo*, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. - *Manuel Salamanca*, Universidad Complutense de Madrid. - *Teresa Numerico*, Università Roma Tre. - *Manuel Portela*, Universidade de Coimbra. - *Ernesto Priani*, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. - *Ernesto Priego*, City, University of London. - *Esteban Romero Frías*, Universidad de Granada. - *Nuria Rodríguez*, Universidad de Málaga. - *Amelia Sanz*, Universidad Complutense de Madrid. I am hoping to make a contribution from the vantage point of human-computer interaction design <http://www.city.ac.uk/courses/postgraduate/human-computer-interaction-design> applied to the digital humanities as critique and development of alternative, fairer, more open forms of scholarly publishing and assessment. The multilingual, multicultural, multidisciplinary nature of the event should allow for a diverse and thoughtful exchange of perspectives and knowledge sharing. The event’s abstract and key info can be found below. The so-called “Digital Humanities” are nowadays more and more spread at international level; institutionally, on the one hand, considering the raising of new centres and organisations, or taking into account the allocation of resources and the financing of the research, on the other, since the “digital” is turning into a privileged component of the project. Even though the Digital Humanities could be a powerful push towards innovation, it should not be forgotten that any technology is culturally neutral. Hence, this round table seeks to reflect on the DH phenomena from the point of view of the society at large and the culture of the “South”, bringing into discussion the critical adoption of epistemological models coming from the North, at the same time an alternative vision about the relationship between knowledge, territories and digital technology is proposed. 20th april, 2017. 14:30 PM. Meeting room, 4th floor. Faculty of Political Science, Università Roma Tre. Via Chiabrera, 199
