SUMMARY:Lecture series: Mike Kestemont
DESCRIPTION:The wandering verse: the computational detection of micro-intertexts in medieval literature \nIntertextuality is a ubiquitous concept in literary studies\, which – because of its notoriously open-ended nature – covers a variety of correspondences between texts. Signaling intertexts is an important editorial responsibility\, because it can deepen one’s reading experience of a literary work. Text reuse detection has become a popular task in the computational humanities too\, although its evaluation is complicated by the lack of exhaustively annotated datasets of intertexts. Historic scholarship on medieval epics provides us with a wealthy inventory of micro-intertexts between medieval works\, although their status is still hotly debated. Some philological communities have been keen on identifying intertexts as authorial features\, whereas others have stressed their conventional status\, especially in the wake of the oral-formulaic theory. In this talk\, I will present a study on Middle Dutch epic literature\, as well as an extension of this work to contemporary Middle English literature\, in particular the bookshop theory surrounding the famous Auchinleck manuscript. I will argue that the intricate web woven by computationally detected intertexts can invite radically innovative readings of medieval literature.  \nMike Kestemont\nMike Kestemont is a research professor in the department of Literature at the University of Antwerp (Belgium). He specializes in computational text analysis for the Digital Humanities. Whereas his work has a strong focus on historic literature\, his previous research has covered a wide range of topics in literary history. Together with Folgert Karsdorp and Allen Riddell he has written a textbook on data science for the Humanities. Together with his Polish colleagues Maciej Eder and Jan Rybicki he is involved in the Computational Stylistics Group. Mike lives in Brussels (http://mikekestemont.github.io/)\, tweets in English (@Mike_Kestemont) and codes in Python (https://github.com/mikekestemont).  \nThis lecture is organized in conjunction with the Antwerp Summer University Summer School “Digital Humanities: Computer-assisted genetic editing\, from handwritten text recognition to keystroke logging ”. Registration for the summer school itself has closed\, but attending the speaker’s keynote lecture is free and open to all. Please register by sending an email to platformdh@uantwerpen.be.

SUMMARY:Lecture series: Nicholas Cornia
DESCRIPTION:Rediscovering the performance practice of musicians in the long 19th century through handwritten annotations on music scores.\nFAAM\, Flemish Archive for Annotated Music\, is a database and research platform aiming to revive the performances of musicians from the 19th and early 20th century through the study of their annotations on music scores. The Heritage Library of the Royal Conservatoire Antwerp provides a substantial collection of historical annotated scores made by Flemish amateur musicians\, performers\, conductors\, and composers of the long 19th century.\n\n\nSources with annotations are usually neglected during typical digitalization projects\, where the librarians tend to favorise the clearest and most intact exemplars for their digital collections. Yet\, scores annotated by musicians of the past provide a huge source for understanding the performance practice of the scribe’s period.\n\n\nBesides the above-described value for music performers and researchers\, the resulting digital corpus will be a valuable resource for testing of new models in the field of Optical Music Recognition and Music Information Retrieval\, given the challenges provided by the semantic complexity of Common Western Music Notation\n\nNicholas Cornia\nNicholas Cornia\, born in Rome in 1989\, considers himself neither a scientist nor an artist\, but rather a special combination of the two. He studied Mathematics and Physics at the University La Sapienza of Rome. After two years as Phd student at the Informatics Department of the University of Amsterdam he decided to dedicate himself to music at the Royal Conservatoire of Ghent\, where he studied Classical Singing\, Music Theory and Pedagogy. \nSince 2018 he is active as artistic director of the ensemble Le Vecchie Musiche\, creating original musical projects based on interdisciplinary research. In 2022\, he joined the research group Labo XIX&XX at the Royal Conservatoire of Antwerp as the main investigator of the FAAM project.\n\n\nThe lecture is free and open to all.

SUMMARY:Lecture series: Megan Gooch
DESCRIPTION:Failure to connect: exploring the human relationships at the heart of digital humanities\nDigital humanities means many things to many people – we talk of DH as being a range of methods\, technologies\, theoretical approaches to ask and answer research questions. But unlike traditional forms of humanities research\, the research projects is not often one that can be tackled alone. DH nearly always requires collaboration with people from different subject domains\, with technical experts and often with non-academic staff such as librarians\, museum staff or administrative support. \nThis paper explores the impact of this growth in collaboration through the lens of failure and what happens when collaborations and partnerships don’t go as planned. We have all experienced failure in our professional lives\, but it is rarely acknowledged due to risks to reputation or to future funding. But by exploring what can go wrong\, we can identify some of the key collaborative skills needed by today’s digital humanists\, and begin to understand how to equip the researchers of the future to thrive. \n\nMegan Gooch\nDr Megan Gooch is the Head of the Centre for Digital Scholarship at the University of Oxford\, and Director of the Digital Humanities @ Oxford Summer School. She works in the Bodleian Libraries and University administration service to support digital scholarship across the University. Megan previously worked in the museums sector and held jobs at Historic Royal Palaces and the British Museum in curatorial\, public engagement and research roles. \nImage: © Photo by Jono on Unsplash \nThe lecture is free and open to all.

SUMMARY:Lecture series: Peter Stokes
DESCRIPTION:Machine Learning for Digital Scholarly Editions: The Case of eScriptorium\nDigital and computational tools and methods are becoming increasingly part of scholarly activity\, including in Digital Scholarly Editing. One example of this is in transcribing texts from manuscripts\, where machine learning is becoming more and more effective. To this end\, eScriptorium is being developed to leverage Machine Learning to help in transcription\, whether automatic\, semi-automatic or manual. In principle the software should be useful for any type of edition\, in any language and script and from any date. In practice\, however\, this raises many questions\, including to what extent AI can or should be employed in preparing editions\, how much the expert should remain ‘in the loop’\, but also to what extent it is even possible to develop a single tool that can work for everything from Greek papyrus to 20th-century notebooks to Old Vietnamese inscriptions and beyond. This talk will therefore present the current state of the art while also addressing some practical and theoretical questions that remain for the future. \nPeter Stokes\nPeter Stokes is Directeur d’études (approximately ‘research professor’) at the École Pratique des Hautes Études – Université Paris Sciences et Lettres where he works on digital and computational humanities applied to historical writing. He is co-director of eScriptorium\, and other major projects include Principal Investigator for DigiPal\, a European Research Council Starting Grant on new methods in palaeography\, as well as Co-Investigator of Exon Domesday and Models of Authority\, Work Package leader for the Horizon 2020 project RESILIENCE\, and coordinator of a Cluster in Biblissima+ funded by the French PIA. \nThis lecture is organized in conjunction with the Antwerp Summer University Summer School “Digital Humanities: Genetic editing\, from manuscripts to born-digital writing processes”. Registration for the summer school itself has closed\, but attending the speaker’s keynote lecture is free and open to all. Please register by sending an email to platformdh@uantwerpen.be.

SUMMARY:Antwerp DH Summer School 2022: Genetic editing\, from manuscripts to born-digital writing processes
DESCRIPTION:Intensive 5-day entry level hands-on course on making digital editions of analogue and born-digital texts. In this course\, participants will acquire a set of basic computer skills to design a fully-fledged\, TEI-compatible Digital Scholarly Edition and deploy keystroke logging technology to record and analyse born-digital texts. \nRegistration information:\n\nEarly bird registration deadline: 15 March 2022.\nRegular registration deadline: 15 April 2022.\n\nFor more information and registration\, please visit the website. \nCourse description\nMONDAY | Introduction and Digital Scholarly Editing\nTEI theory and practice \nOn the first day\, we will learn about the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) as the de facto standard for annotating texts in the humanities. We will learn about how TEI relates to XML and related XML technologies and cover general principles such as well-formedness and validity. After a general introduction to XML and the TEI Guidelines\, we will learn how to annotate writing processes in TEI. All theoretical contents will be accompanied by practical encoding exercises. \nAt the end of the day\, Peter Stokes will present a keynote lecture. \nTUESDAY | Manuscript Web\nTEI Publication Environments\, Manuscript Web\, TEI\, CSS \nOn the second day\, we will learn how to turn text-genetic TEI annotations into web-based editions. After introducing workflows for custom-tailored web visualizations in XSLT\, we will look at pret-a-porter solutions. We will compare existing web publication environments for TEI-encoded text corpora and discuss their usability for text-genetic materials in specific. In a hands-on workshop\, we will use Manuscript Web\, a prototypical publication environment for genetic corpora developed in Antwerp\, to turn TEI documents into web-based scholarly editions. In the day’s final session we will form working groups and identify materials (small data sets) for small editions\, which the students will produce on day three. \nWEDNESDAY | Make Your Own Edition\nManuscript Web \nOn the third day\, we will apply the contents of the first two days to our own materials. The students will work individually or in teams on the dataset they chose on day two. The goal is to encode the materials in TEI and to publish them in a small-scale\, web-based edition. In the afternoon we will visit the Plantin-Moretus Museum.​ \nTHURSDAY | Logging and Encoding Born-Digital Writing Processes\nKeystroke Logging\, TEI-XML \nOn the fourth day\, we will start with a creative exercise: writing a short story and logging the writing process with a keystroke logger. We will then use these keystroke logging files to learn the basic technologies involved in making a (genetic) digital edition. As a first step\, we will encode all the textual operations (e.g.\, new text production\, additions\, deletions) in TEI-XML together with the timestamps of each operation. These XML files will be used the next day as we move on to the visualisation of the reconstructions of the digital writing processes. \nFRIDAY | Visualising Born-Digital Writing Processes\nXPath\, XSLT\, HTML\, CSS \nOn the last day\, we will start from the XML documents we developed in class\, and learn how we can prepare them for the web\, by transforming them into HTML through XSLT. We will do this using XPath expressions. This effort will result in a static visualisation of the writing process. We will learn the basics of CSS by modifying the visualisation. Having gained experience with XPath\, XSLT and HTML\, the XML files will later be uploaded in an environment provided by the instructors that allows for replaying the writing process as well. We will end the day with student presentations and a final discussion.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Lecture Series: Siebe Bluijs & Lois Burke
DESCRIPTION:We regret to report that the platform{DH} talk by Siebe Bluijs and Lois Burke ‘Towards a Collection of Digital Literature from Flanders and the Netherlands (1971–2022)’ that was scheduled for 24 May 2022 at 4pm will need to be rescheduled yet another time due to illness. We will try to reorganise the event at a later date this year\, and will inform you about its new date as soon as possible. \nWe apologise for the inconvenience. \nTowards a Collection of Digital Literature from Flanders and the Netherlands (1971–2022)\nDigital literature is an umbrella term that encompasses differing types of multimodal works of literature that are all reliant on the digital environment for their production\, dissemination and/or consumption (Rettberg 2018). Digital literature can refer to hypertext fictions\, algorithm-generated poetry\, works created in virtual reality\, online fan fiction\, and various other permutations. Digital literature emerged as a concept and a field of study in the 1980s and 1990s. The rapidly changing nature and function of digital media since then have urged new definitions and approaches to this art form. \nIn this project we are exploring the history of digital literature in Dutch from 1971 – when Gerrit Krol’s Automatic Poetry by Pointed Information was published – to the present day. So far\, we have collected more than 100 works of Dutch digital literature\, using the ELMCIP (Electronic Literature Knowledge Base) database. Our next challenge is to curate a representative selection of these works and explore how they might be successfully integrated into library collections and exhibitions\, at both national (Koninklijke Bibliotheek) and local (Bibliotheek Midden-Brabant) levels. \nSiebe Bluijs & Lois Burke\nSiebe Bluijs is a literary scholar focusing on modern Dutch literature and media. He completed his PhD at Ghent University (Belgium) and is currently working as a Postdoctoral Researcher at Tilburg University’s Department of Communication and Cognition. \nLois Burke’s research focuses on nineteenth-century children’s history and digital approaches to working with library and museum collections. She is currently a Postdoctoral Researcher in Tilburg University’s Department of Communication and Cognition. \nPlease register by sending a mail to platformdh@uantwerpen.be. \nThe lecture is free and open to all.

SUMMARY:Lecture Series: Julian Schröter
DESCRIPTION:The challenges of investigating loosely structured genres and of operationalizing semantic content\nLiterary studies are often dealing with genres that are well established in literary discourse but can\, on closer inspection\, not be identified on the level of textual features. In other words\, there are loosely structured genres that are not instantiated as clear-cut text types. The German novella\, which is split up into two genres\, that of the ‚Erzählung‘ and that of the ‚Novelle‘\, is such a disordered genre. Research in literary genres\, however\, usually presumes the existence of a common text type on the level of textual features that can be revealed\, for example\, with stylometric analysis or based on classification tasks. \nIt is the aim of a larger project to reveal the latent structures of German novellas. The presentation gives a systematic outline of the challenge of analyzing the historical change of the novella as a loosely structured genre. Two central and methodologically different steps will be presented and discussed. Firstly\, a socio-historical model is introduced that allows explaining common assumptions on the existence of genres not on the level of textual features but the level of communication about literature in historical cultures. This model does not limit itself to assigning a genre to textual features as a binary link\, as it is common to computational genre stylistics\, but rather starts from a triadic and recursive structure that links genre as a historically contingent assignment practice with textual features and with factors of socio-historical context. Secondly\, there is the problem of operationalizing appropriate textual features. It is common practice to use word type frequencies (or more abstract features such as part of speech tags or n-grams). Traditional genre theory could object that this bag-of-words model is not able to represent complex genre features that were codified in traditional novella poetics\, such as turning point (peripeteia)\, closure\, or leitmotiv structure. Hence\, promising strategies based on advanced combinations of topic modeling and word embedding for operationalizing features that represent semantic content are discussed with a focus on empirical validation. \nJulian Schröter\nJulian Schröter is a Walter Benjamin-Fellow from March 2022 through February 2023 in Antwerp\, Montreal\, and Illinois\, where he is working on a history of the German novella based on quantitative and qualitative methods. He was the deputy of the professorship for Digital Humanities at the University of Trier in the summer semester of 2020\, where he was also the coordinator for the project »Zeta and Company« from June to September 2020. He is currently a research fellow at the chair for digital humanities and German literature at the University of Würzburg and a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Literary Theory. His doctoral thesis on literary self-fashioning was published in 2018. Julian studied Philosophy and German Literature inWürzburg. His focus in research lies on interpretation theories\, the methodological and epistemological foundation of Computational Literary Studies\, and on German 19th century as well as on contemporary prose fiction. \nThe lecture is free and open to all.

SUMMARY:Linked Pasts Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The annual Linked Pasts conference\, which has previously been held at KCL\, Madrid\, Stanford\, Mainz\, Bordeaux and virtually at London brings together scholars\, heritage professionals and other practitioners with an interest in Linked Open Data as applied to the study of the ancient and historical worlds. Panels and working groups at Linked Pasts are more goal-oriented than a conventional academic conference\, and activities and agendas are often proposed\, developed and revised by all participants at the event itself. The Linked Pasts Symposium is a formal partner of the Pelagios Network. \nThe seventh installment of Linked Pasts in December 2021 will be hosted by the Ghent Centre for Digital Humanities and CLARIAH Flanders Open Humanities Service Infrastructure consortium (an interdisciplinary team from Universities of Ghent\, Antwerp\, Leuven and Brussels). \nLinked Pasts 7 will be a hybrid event\, with activities taking place remotely over a week  (December 13-17)  and two days of in-person sessions in Ghent (December 20 and 21). \nFor more information\, please visit the conference’s CFP page.

SUMMARY:Antwerp DH Summer School 2018: Processing and Analysing Images
DESCRIPTION:Whereas the Digital Humanities have traditionally had a strong orientation towards texts\, images have been rapidly gaining prominence in the field\, due to recent improvements in both computer hardware and software. Research increasingly goes beyond the mere digitisation of cultural artifacts and is exploring new ways of: \n\nopening up images to a larger audience through innovative protocols such as IIIF;\nanalysing image data through the use of advanced artificial intelligence;\nunderstanding handwritten textual documents\, whose contents have long remained inaccessible to computers.\n\nThis summer school offers an in-depth and hands-on curriculum to familiarise novice (digital) humanists with the state-of-the-art technologies that are nowadays available to researchers who take an active interest in ‘pixel-based’ artifacts in the Humanities. The tutorials will be given by established experts in their respective fields and will include the following topics: \n\nThe main descriptive mark-up protocols (including XML-TEI and ALTO-XML)\nThe IIIF protocol for making available images collection online (and its integration with content management platforms such as Omeka)\nModern methods (neural networks) from computer vision to analyse (e.g. classify) images.\nHandwritten Text Recognition (HTR) as an alternative to Optical Character Recognition (e.g. the Transkribus platform)\n\nEarly bird registration deadline: 30 April 2018. \nRegular registration deadline: 31 May 2018. \nFor more information\, please visit the Summer School’s website.

SUMMARY:Antwerp Summer Academy in DH 2016
DESCRIPTION:Demystifying Digitisation: A Hands-On Master Class in Text Digitisation \nThis two-day workshop will take place from 29 to 30 September 2016 at the University of Antwerp\, Belgium\, preceding the DiXiT + ESTS 2016  conference hosted at the same location. It offers the perfect opportunity for the conference’s participants and other interested scholars to become better acquainted with some of the main concerns that need to be addressed at the outset of both mass- and ad hoc digitisation projects.  \nThe core of the our programme exists of two half-day workshops on software packages that may help the researcher automate some aspects of the transcription process. The first will deal with ABBYY\, still one of the best software packages around for OCRing digitised print materials. Focusing on the software’s possible advantages and pitfalls\, this workshop will show the participants how to prepare their documents in order to achieve the best OCR results. The second workshop will introduce Transkribus\, a software package that has recently made great advancements in optically recognising characters in handwritten materials.  \nThe programme will be completed by 4 (interactive) sessions on related topics that will be organised around these workshops. Colleagues from the Ghent University Library will share their experience of taking part in the Google Books mass digitisation project to digitise their out-of-copyright books; Wout Dillen and Vincent Neyt and (UAntwerpen) will introduce the Manuscript Desk\, a Virtual Research Environment for transcribing textual documents into TEI compliant XML\, funded in the context of DARIAH-BE; Trudi Noordermeer (Antwerp University Library) will focus on issues related to developing a useful digitisation workflow; and Walter Scholger (Centre for Information Modelling – Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities\, University of Graz) will tell us what we are allowed to do with our digitised documents by focusing on Copyright issues and Internet Property Rights. \nThe entire program will be free of charge\, but registration is required. The workshops are limited to 20 participants each\, while the lectures will be opened up to the larger public. Participants are asked to bring their own corpus to the workshops\, consisting of scans of both printed and handwritten materials. The workshops do not demand any prerequisite skills\, but a basic knowledge of XML is considered a strong advantage. Places will be distributed on a first-come-first-served basis\, but we will keep a number of places reserved for members of DHu.F. and DARIAH-BE. All sessions will be held in English. Since places are limited\, early registration is highly recommended.  \nCall for Applications\nTo participate in the workshop\, please fill in the application form by Wednesday 21 September.

SUMMARY:Antwerp Spring Academy in DH 2014
DESCRIPTION:Python\nOrganizing committee: \n\nMike Kestemont (mike.kestemont@uantwerpen.be)\nThomas Crombez (thomas.crombez@uantwerpen.be)\nWalter Daelemans\nDirk Van Hulle\n\nThe target audience con­sists of (early-stage) resear­chers in the Humani­ties\, who wish to apply digi­tal methods in their own re­search prac­tice but who\, so far\, have had little or no signi­ficant initia­tion to the use of digi­tal methods. \nThe focus is on text analysis using the popu­lar scrip­ting language Python\, which is rapidly becoming the standard program­ming language for computa­tional text ana­lysis in digi­tal Humani­ties. \nCovered topics include: \n\nbasic text proces­sing tasks\nusing text-mining tool­kits such as Pattern and NLTK\napplications of text proces­sing (e.g.\, sentiment mining\, topic classi­fication\, auto­matic clustering)\nXML parsing (e.g.\, TEI-XML) in Python\n\nFor the work­shop\, the instruc­tors will make use of a so-called Python note­book – a success­ful and enga­ging teaching for­mat. Python notebooks are a course book and coding ‘sandbox’ at once. Experience with previous EADH and DARIAH-DE Summer Schools in Nijmegen and Göttingen has shown that this format is extremely engaging for resear­chers who have had no signi­ficant expo­sure to digi­tal methods yet. \nThe fol­lowing team of dynamic and experien­ced Python instruc­tors have kindly con­firmed their partici­pation in the inten­sive full-week teaching pro­gram: \n\nFolgert Karsdorp (Meertens Institute)\, one of the Python instruc­tors in the Nijmegen Spring School\nMatthew Munson (University of Göttingen)\, DARIAH-DE\, orga­nizer of the Göttingen Summer School\nTom De Smedt (Sint Lucas Ant­werpen College of Art)\, main developer of the Pattern package for Python and experien­ced Python instruc­tor\n\nThe partici­pation fee for the Spring Academy is 100 euros\, and in­cludes five days of instruc­tion together with lunches and cof­fee breaks. The work­shop takes place on the City Cam­pus of the Univer­sity of Ant­werp\, which is loca­ted in the histo­rical city centre. All parti­cipants are expec­ted to arrange for their own accom­modation. We can waive the partici­pation fee for two appli­cants\, but we are unable to cover travel expen­ses. Resear­chers who wish to apply for the fee waiver should in­clude a brief motiva­tion. \nParti­cipants are expec­ted to bring their own lap­top. Instal­lation instruc­tions will follow short­ly before the work­shop starts. Previous expe­rience in program­ming or statis­tics is not required. \nPlease apply by sen­ding your cv to Mike Kestemont (mike.kestemont@uantwerpen.be) before 21 February 2014. Applica­tions will be accep­ted on a first-come\, first-served basis. \nSponsored by EADH\, the European Association for Digi­tal Humani­ties and by the Departments of Literature and Linguistics of the University of Antwerp.
