Dear all,
I am happy to forward this workshop announcement for the coming autumn:
Call for Applications: Workshop on Computer Technologies for the Historical Research of Intellectual Networks
The second workshop in the series “Innovative Technologies in the Humanities”
Sunday-Wednesday, 6-10 October 2013
At the National Library of Israel and the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute
Applications are invited to a workshop on Computer Technologies for the Historical Research of Intellectual Networks. In the workshop, sponsored by the National Library of Israel in the framework of the “Innovative Technologies in the Humanities” series, and by the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute, leading international scholars will present digital humanities projects that combine intellectual history and network visualization technologies, and will teach the tools and methods that have been developed for them. A pre-circulated list of background reading will prepare the participants for the unique opportunity to test and explore some of the recently developed technological tools by themselves, with the close, hands-on guidance of international experts on the subject. The participants will have the chance to explore open-access tools, experiment with datasets from several case studies and, finally, connect with the thriving international community of historical network research.
Keynote speaker:
Prof. Howard Hotson, University of Oxford
Invited Lecturers:
Glen Worthey, Stanford University; Scott Weingart, Indiana University; Marten Düring, Radboud University Nijmegen; and Hannah Marcus, Stanford University
Organizers:
Arie Dubnov, Stanford University and Haifa University; Sinai Rusinek, Polonsky Academy at the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute
Researchers and advanced graduate students from all fields of the humanities are invited to apply.
