Digital Humanities - Anne Burdicková, Johanna Druckerová, Peter Lunenfeld, Jeffrey Schnapp

Kniha Digital_Humanities není tradičně pojatým akademickým sborníkem esejí či spoluautorskou monografií. Jak uvádějí v předmluvě a doslovu její autoři, Digital_Humanities je „výsledkem spolupráce“ na „rukopisu se sdíleným přístupem“, do něhož „každý´ z autorů přispěl k psaní, revizi, přepisům a konečným úpravám celého díla“. Model této knihy má tedy „experimentální povahu“. Usiluje o to, „vytvořit jednolity´, i když sborový´ hlas“ a tímto hlasem vést „jakýsi metadialog: tedy dialog, který´ na sebe bere podobu toho, o čem pojednává“. A jelikož pojednává o provázanosti mezi humanitními vědami a komputačními metodami výzkumu v raném 21. století, bere na sebe podobu provázanosti. K ní ostatně odkazuje i podtržítko v názvu publikace.Kolektiv pěti autorů – předních odborníků-teoretiků z rozmanitých vědních oborů – v ní podává zevrubnou zprávu o provázanosti mezi humanitními vědami a komputačními metodami výzkumu v raném 21. století. Zkoumají metodiky a technologie, které byly pro tradiční humanitní zkoumání donedávna neznámé (geoprostorová analýza, korpusová lingvistika, vizualizace a simulace dat apod.). Do monografie jsou tak zahrnuty nejen kapitoly o základech nového vědního pole, o nových metodách a žánrech či o společenském životě digitálních humanitních věd (digital humanities), ale také případové studie, ba dokonce „provokace“ a „rady“.

The Routledge Introduction to English Canadian Literature and Digital Humanities - Paul Barrett, Sarah Roger

The Routledge Introduction to English Canadian Literature and Digital Humanities is a guide to the debates, concepts, and theories at the intersection of Canadian literary studies and digital humanities. Equal parts theoretical and practical, it focuses on debates that overlap the two domains. The book historicizes the connections between the two by surveying the history of digital humanities in Canada, the tradition of Canadian writers engaging with technology, and digital humanities analyses of Canadian literature. It also situates both CanLit and DH with respect to contemporary concerns about alterity, queerness, race, and Indigeneity, and it demonstrates how digital technologies allow writers and scholars to intervene in them.The book complements its theoretical discussions with a practical introduction to digital humanities methods. Using Canadian literary texts and with examples from projects at the intersection of CanLit and DH as examples, it introduces key DH approaches to novice readers. Topics covered include data collection, data management, and textual analysis, as well as essential DH tools and the Python programming language. A concluding case study guides readers interested in applying the ideas presented throughout.

Debates in the Digital Humanities 2023

A cutting-edge view of the digital humanities at a time of global pandemic, catastrophe, and uncertaintyWhere do the digital humanities stand in 2023? Debates in the Digital Humanities 2023 presents a state-of-the-field vision of digital humanities amid rising social, political, economic, and environmental crises; a global pandemic; and the deepening of austerity regimes in U.S. higher education. Providing a look not just at where DH stands but also where it is going, this fourth volume in the Debates in the Digital Humanities series features both established scholars and emerging voices pushing the field’s boundaries, asking thorny questions, and providing space for practitioners to bring to the fore their research and their hopes for future directions in the field. Carrying forward the themes of political and social engagement present in the series throughout, it includes crucial contributions to the field—from a vital forum centered on the voices of Black women scholars, manifestos from feminist and Latinx perspectives on data and DH, and a consideration of Indigenous data and artificial intelligence, to essays that range across topics such as the relation of DH to critical race theory, capital, and accessibility.Contributors: Harmony Bench, Ohio State U; Christina Boyles, Michigan State U; Megan R. ...

August Sedláček in the Age of Digital Humanities - Robert Šimůnek, Josef Žemlička, Jaroslav Boubín, Eva Doležalová

August Sedláček (1843-1926) is one of a few Czech historians whose name is known outside the narrow circle of the historical community.His most famous work, the fifteen-volume Hrady, zámky a tvrze království Českého [Castles, Chateaux and Strongholds of the Kingdom of Bohemia], is comprehensible to the lay public, but also its professional quality is so far undoubtable. For the preparation of his monumental work, August Sedláček created a number of auxiliary materials, which are preserved to this day in state archives and, above all, at the Institute of History of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague (http://www.hiu.cas.cz/en/structure/medieval-history/pozustalost-augusta-sedlacka.ep/). All of these materials themselves have high scientific and historical value. In particular, two card indices (genealogical and topographical), comprising altogether about 400 000 cards, are to this day the most frequently used archival collections of the August Sedláček scholarly legacy. Since 2015, they are accessible to public as a digital database (www.augustsedlacek.cz). The special methodology and software developed for this purpose not only allow a standard access to each particular digitised index card, but make it possible to analyse the information contained in the card indices as a whole and provide their end users - the researchers - with comfortable room ...

Digital Sociology - Deborah Lupton

We now live in a digital society. New digital technologies have had a profound influence on everyday life, social relations, government, commerce, the economy and the production and dissemination of knowledge. People’s movements in space, their purchasing habits and their online communication with others are now monitored in detail by digital technologies. We are increasingly becoming digital data subjects, whether we like it or not, and whether we choose this or not.The sub-discipline of digital sociology provides a means by which the impact, development and use of these technologies and their incorporation into social worlds, social institutions and concepts of selfhood and embodiment may be investigated, analysed and understood. This book introduces a range of interesting social, cultural and political dimensions of digital society and discusses some of the important debates occurring in research and scholarship on these aspects. It covers the new knowledge economy and big data, reconceptualising research in the digital era, the digitisation of higher education, the diversity of digital use, digital politics and citizen digital engagement, the politics of surveillance, privacy issues, the contribution of digital devices to embodiment and concepts of selfhood and many other topics.Digital Sociology is essential reading not only for students and ...

The Theory and Craft of Digital Preservation - Trevor Owens

A guide to managing data in the digital age. Winner of the ALCTS Outstanding Publication Award by the Association for Library Collections & Technical Services, Winner of the Waldo Gifford Leland Award by the Society of American ArchivistsMany people believe that what is on the Internet will be around forever. At the same time, warnings of an impending "digital dark age"—where records of the recent past become completely lost or inaccessible—appear with regular frequency in the popular press. It's as if we need a system to safeguard our digital records for future scholars and researchers. Digital preservation experts, however, suggest that this is an illusory dream not worth chasing. Ensuring long-term access to digital information is not that straightforward; it is a complex issue with a significant ethical dimension. It is a vocation. In The Theory and Craft of Digital Preservation, librarian Trevor Owens establishes a baseline for practice in this field. In the first section of the book, Owens synthesizes work on the history of preservation in a range of areas (archives, manuscripts, recorded sound, etc.) and sets that history in dialogue with work in new media studies, platform studies, and media archeology. In later chapters, Owens builds from ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Emerging Digital Media Ecologies - Toija Cinque

Emerging Digital Media Ecologies: The Concept of Medialogy investigates the profound ways in which digital media reshapes our cultural, socio-technological, political, and natural landscapes. Through interdisciplinary empirical and creative case studies, the book defines and illuminates the nuances of medialogy, emphasising the often-underestimated impact of emerging technologies across interactive education, data gathering, visual-data representations, and creative practice. It explores the intersection of the natural and technological worlds, contextualising our use of natural resources against climate change and sustainable economies.Divided into two parts, the book delves into the theoretical underpinnings of digital media ecologies and their practical applications. Part 1 traces the evolution of media technologies, examining their environmental impact and the foundational approaches to understanding mediaÂ’s complex interconnections. Part 2 focuses on contemporary issues such as hyperpersonalised media, digital literacy, and the transformative power of Indigenous media narratives.Additionally, the monograph explores the revolutionary role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and large language models like ChatGPT-4o and those that follow in shaping our digital future.

Digital Technologies for Sustainable Futures

This book critically examines the interplay between digitalization and sustainability. Amid escalating environmental crises, some of which are now irreversible, there is a noticeable commitment within both international and domestic policy agendas to employ digital technologies in pursuit of sustainability goals.This collection gathers a multitude of voices interrogating the premise that increased digitalization automatically contributes to greater sustainability. By exploring the planetary links underpinning the global digital economy, the book exposes the extractive logics ingrained within digital capitalism and introduces alternatives like digital degrowth and the circular economy as viable, sustainable paths for the digital era. Through a combination of theoretical reflections and detailed contextual analyses from Italy, New Zealand, and the UK—including initiatives in participatory planning and technology co-design—it articulates the dual role of digital technology: its potential to support socio-economic and environmental sustainability, while also generating conflicts and impasses that undermine these very objectives. Offering fresh insights into power disparities, exclusionary tactics, and systemic injustices that digital solutionism fails to address, this volume also serves as a reminder that sustainability extends beyond climate-related issues, underscoring the inseparability of environmental discourse from wider social justice considerations.Aimed at a diverse readership, this volume will prove valuable for students, researchers, and ...

Critical Approaches to the Australian Blue Humanities

This interdisciplinary edited collection explores and analyses the field of the blue humanities through an Australian lens. The blue humanities is a way of understanding humanity’s relationship with water and manifestations of what is referred to as the ‘blue’ – reefs, oceans, rivers, creeks, basins, and inland bodies of water.In its scope, this collection emphasises both the importance of the local and the interconnectedness of Australia with global environmental concerns. It considers how we conceptualise watery spaces and shades of blue in a country where water is often marked by its absence, its ephemerality, its politicisation, and its dangers. Contributors from environmental history, environmental social science, political science, literary studies, creative arts, Indigenous Knowledge, education, and anthropology tackle various entanglements between the human, the more-than-human, and watery Australian spaces in modern culture. It is the first volume to offer a specific, dedicated focus on the intersections between Australian space and the blue humanities, and it offers a pathway for those wishing to explore, critique, and advance ideas around the blue humanities in both research and teaching.Directly contributing to a growing interdisciplinary field, this is the first book to comprehensively examine the blue in Australia, appealing to scholars, educators, and students ...

Theater Kid - Jeffrey Seller

A coming-of-age tale from one of the most successful American producers of our time, Jeffrey Seller, who is the only producer to have mounted two Pulitzer Prize–winning musicals—Hamilton and Rent. Before he was producing the musical hits of our generation, Jeffrey was just a kid coming to terms with his adoption, trying to understand his sexuality, and determined to escape his dysfunctional household in a poor neighborhood just outside Detroit. We see him find his voice through musical theater and move to New York, where he is determined to shed his past and make a name for himself on Broadway. But moving to the big city is never easy—especially not at the height of the HIV/AIDS crisis—and Jeffrey learns to survive and thrive in the colorful and cutthroat world of commercial theatre. From his early days as an office assistant, to meeting Jonathan Larson and experiencing the triumph and tragedy of Rent, to working with Lin-Manuel Miranda on In the Heights and Hamilton, Jeffrey completely pulls back the curtain on the joyous and gut-wrenching process of making new musicals, finding new audiences, and winning a Tony Award—all the while finding himself.

Reimagining Mobilities across the Humanities

Volume 1: Theories, Methods and Ideas explores the mobility of ideas through time and space and how interdisciplinary theories and methodological approaches used in mobilities studies can be profitably utilised within the humanities and social sciences. Through a series of short chapters, mobility is employed as an elastic, inclusive and multifaceted concept across various disciplines to shed light on a geographically and chronologically broad range of issues and case studies. In doing so, the concept of mobility is positioned as a powerful catalyst for historical change and as a fruitful approach to research in the humanities and social sciences.Like its sister volume, this volume is edited and written by members of the Centre for Advanced Studies in Mobility and the Humanities (MoHu) at the Department of Historical and Geographical Sciences and The Ancient World (DiSSGeA) of the University of Padua, Italy. The structure of the book mirrors the Theories and Methods, and Ideas thematic research clusters of the Centre.

Verejné pôsobenie JOHANKY Z ARKU netrvalo dlho. Od jej prvého vystúpenia pred kráľom Karolom VII. v Chinone vo februári 1429 až po upálenie na hranici v Rouene 30. mája 1431 uplynuli iba dva roky. Ako je teda možné, že sa Panna orleánska za taký krátky čas nezmazateľne zapísala do dejín? Spoznajte detailnejšie príbeh Johanky z Arku formou komiksu. Jej odhodlanie je určite inšpiratívne aj dnes. Dodnes ju považujeme za jednu z najzaujímavejších osobností európskeho stredoveku. Bola to ona, kto zvrátil priebeh storočnej vojny a začal postupné znovudobývanie Francúzska. Podarilo sa jej prelomiť anglické obliehanie mesta Orléans a presvedčiť Karola VII. o potrebe jeho pomazania v Remeši, ktorým posilnil svoju legitimitu ako kráľa Francúzska. Práve táto udalosť bola jedným z hlavných argumentov počas rehabilitačného procesu v roku 1456, na základe ktorého sa Johanka stala jednou z ikon (nielen) francúzskych dejín. Jej mimoriadna cesta neprestáva prekvapovať. Ako sa mohla prostá vidiecka dievčina dostať až ku kráľovi? Ako mohla žena zohrať takú významnú vojenskú úlohu? Jej viera a osobnosť poháňali veliteľov vojsk i radových vojakov k víťazstvu. Pre jedných bola Johanka prorokyňa, ale pre druhých čarodejnica. Rozprávať príbeh Johanky z Arku formou komiksu je problematické v mnohých ohľadoch, pretože Panna orleánska zostáva záhadou ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Humanities in the Time of AI - Laurent Dubreuil

Why AI offers a chance for the humanities to strengthen their relevance and significance If humanistic research consists of the generation of consensus positions, simple expression, summarized texts, or passable translations, then we have arrived at the place where AI is able to accomplish these different missions to a convincing degree. However, Laurent Dubreuil argues, such tasks do not, in any way, constitute the humanities. On the contrary, he posits, a maximalist take on scholarship would not focus on generation but on creation, as a subject and as an object. Dubreuil seizes the opportunity of what AI reveals about the meaning of humanistic inquiry to offer a path for the renewal of the humanities on transhistorical, transcultural, and transdisciplinary grounds.

Johanna is one of the daughters of a migrant cobbler from the eastern backwoods of Pomerania, born in the German Empire of the 1880s.
