    Summer School - Epistemology and methodology

    Research methods and problem-solving

    Digital humanities summer school (Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas)

    The digital humanities have been largely debated and are currently a wellestablished branch of knowledge with specific departments, research centres, journals and a growing community gathered around several national and international associations. The digital humanities have a growing impact on teaching, researching and on dissemination in the humanities, and are nowadays an almost mandatory approach for new research projects and for young researchers curriculum. This summer school aims at providing concrete answers to specific needs and challenges emerging from projects carried out by master and PhD students, and post-doctoral researchers in the arts, humanities and social sciences.

    Mega-data in the social sciences

    The Brexit, Donald Trump’s election, and the alleged interference of Russian hackers mark a turning point in the relationship between the Internet and social science research. The failure of media, analysts and opinion polls to predict the outcome of two crucial democratic consultations is challenging the research methods used since the end of the Second World War. Between the researcher and the data he/she collects there is a space of indeterminacy where suspicion looms. On the one hand, it’s said that we’ve entered the era of electronic democracy: the citizens express themselves freely in the international media. On the other hand, one becomes aware that a certain part of the contents accessible on the Web are actually produced by software; the data would tell us nothing about citizens’ opinions and sentiments.

    Digital Humanities – Opportunities and Risks. Connecting Libraries and Research

    Digital Humanities is widely understood to mean the use of computer-aided and data-driven research methods and techniques in both the arts and humanities. Some examples of this are critical editions, lexicographical projects, as well as the historical reception of large-scale collections, whether of visual objects or literary textual corpora. But intrinsic to the digitally-enabled arts and humanities are the holdings and collections offered up to researchers by libraries and other cultural heritage and memory institutions. In addition academic libraries also have an integrating role to play between the researcher, the interested public and the collections not only of libraries, but also of museums and archives especially, where strong regional cooperation or collaborations across borders have been established. Essential to this for this role are services that present appropriately curated digitized materials and provide access to them.

    Conference, symposium - Language

    The literary digital humanities?

    Le numérique bouleverse le champ des lettres sous divers angles : la création, l’archivage et la conservation des textes, mais aussi l’enrichissement des données et leur usage. Il oblige à penser un nouvel humanisme littéraire, dont les objets, les pratiques, les conditions d’existence et les finalités sont à définir. On peut distinguer, dans ce qui scande la démarche du numérique littéraire, trois temps bien différents:  la numérisation en vue de la constitution de données et de corpus ; l’intelligence des textes, par la fouille de données et l’herméneutique assistée ; la transformation de la vie littéraire et de l’activité critique.

    Forms and dynamics of attention, presence and commitment

    Interfaces numériques journal, Volume 7, no. 1/2018

    Ce prochain numéro de la revue Interfaces Numériques ambitionne de théoriser les rapports qui unissent l’attention, la présence et l’engagement. Cela situe d’emblée l’investigation au niveau des modalités d’implication générées tant par les médias interactifs, que par les situations vécues et les objets informatisés ou connectés qui les véhiculent. Notamment autour de l’image et des écrans, les efforts de théorisation pour cerner les caractéristiques de ces formes particulières et propres ont bien souvent rejoint les connaissances pratiques des concepteurs, inventeurs et designers investis dans l’expérimentation et l’exploitation…

    Franco-German masterclass in the digital humanities

    Cette master class franco-allemande en humanités numériques vise à rassembler huit jeunes chercheurs allemands et huit jeunes chercheurs français participant à ou porteurs de projets en humanités numériques et à leur offrir un forum où échanger de manière fructueuse pour la poursuite de leur recherche, autour de la question de la gestion des données de la recherche. Chacun(e) doit être prêt à présenter son projet (et les données afférentes sous un format ouvert) et à le mettre en dialogue avec ceux des autres particpant(e)s dans un type de rencontre proche d’un THATCamp, c’est-à-dire sans enseignement magistral ni exposé frontal.

    Five centuries of publishing in Brussels

    Bruxelles, ancienne capitale de duché et actuelle capitale de l'Europe, doit l’éclosion d’une activité culturelle et intellectuelle foisonnante au rôle politique qu’elle a joué depuis de nombreux siècles. Cette effervescence est connue de manière fort inégale, particulièrement en ce qui concerne les mondes de l’édition et de la librairie au cours de l’époque moderne. Des spécialistes se réuniront au cours d’une journée d'étude autour de l’édition à Bruxelles depuis le XVe siècle jusqu’à nos jours, afin de poser un regard rétrospectif de plus de cinq siècles sur le milieu du livre à Bruxelles, à travers ses mutations jusqu’aux derniers développements contemporains.

    (De)constructing Digital History

    dhnord 2017

    The rise of digital history is in general perceived as the phase defined by the democratization of the personal computer technology, network applications and the development of open-source software. However, specific disciplinary objects, sources and approaches continue to be present within the connected use of methods and tools that takes place under the digital humanities big tent. A typology of digital history projects identifies three main fields: academic research, public history, and pedagogy projects, of which the last two categories are considered particularly specific to historians within the digital humanities field. We therefore propose to address digital history through this triple spectrum: academic research, public history, and pedagogy, in order to trace continuities and transformations in history as a discipline; and contribute to explore the broader digital humanities field through this case study.

    Digital History Summer School

    Today, historians are increasingly confronted with questions about the use of primary sources. How does one deal with historical primary sources in the Digital Age? What peculiarities present sources, which have been digitized, or which originated in digital form–so-called “born-digital” sources? How do we read them? How do we interpret them? How can they be used in order to construct a historical narrative? 

    This four-day Summer School offers historians (PhD-candidates, graduates students, established historians) the opportunity to acquire the basic principles of data usage in the historical sciences, and benefit from insights gained in other humanities and social sciences disciplines.
