Appel à communication

International Workshop on Digital Humanities to Preserve Knowledge and Cultural Heritage : Collaborate, Compute, Share, and Visualize (DHK 2019) - Stanford University (E.U.), 15 avril 2019

 

Stanford University and the Université de Lille (France) invite submissions to a workshop on “Digital humanities to Preserve Knowledge and Cultural Heritage : Collaborate, Compute, Share, and Visualize ” at the Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis (CESTA), Stanford University, Monday, April 15, 2019.

 

As Digital Humanities continue to gain momentum, the field is intersecting with an ever-widening range of disciplines including Natural Language Processing, Library and Information Science, History, Literature, and Translation Studies to name only a few. The growth of these fields within DH enables us to break new scientific ground. For example, the existing reservoir of public domain translations of literary texts, once tracked and digitalized, provides a new a wealth of linguistic resources to sustain and salvage endangered languages and help us map the global circulation and reception of texts.

 

This workshop provides an opportunity to present recent scholarship and exchange information about DH projects from all disciplines focused on collecting, computing, sharing and visualizing transnational data to preserve knowledge and cultural heritage.

 

We welcome submissions including but not limited to the following topics:

  • Collecting and aligning translated texts in and for under-resourced languages
  • Multilingual parallel and comparable corpora
  • Natural Language Processing to preserve knowledge diversity
  • Knowledge circulation in a translational context
  • Open data, open access and data preservation
  • DH, crowdsourcing and digital libraries
  • DH and the circulation of translated literary genres
  • Collaboration and computing for endangered data
  • Ethics and data privacy issues in a global context
