We thank warmly all our speakers and posters presenters for the great talks they have given at our online conference! The proceedings are now in preparation for a special Classics@ issue.
See you at our next MARK16 online conference on the 2 and 3 June 2022, organized by Claire Clivaz & Mina Monier (DH+, SIB) and Dan Batovici (University of Leuven)
ONLINE CONFERENCE – 10-11 Septembre 2020
Org. Claire Clivaz (DH+, SIB) & Garrick Allen (Dublin University), with Mina Monier & Sara Schulthess (DH+, SIB)
SNSF PRIMA MARK16 Project
PROGRAMME and SCHEDULE
This conference is focused on an important challenge in digital humanities: what changes when research on ancient manuscripts occurs in a Virtual Research Environment (VRE), especially in Early Jewish and Christian Literature, New Testament, and Classical Studies? Because they offer access to diverse information regardless of geographical location, VREs continue to define the research landscape of the humanities in more complex ways. They serve as the new “covers” of scientific objects, replacing the paper covers of printed books as signs of knowledge territories. As some have suggested, VREs are likely to become the default location for critical research and other cultural activities in the very near future.
Be sure to note that these times are local time in Switzerland, so one hour behind in the UK/Ireland.
The inscriptions are now closed; if you want to check during the conference if there is an empty place to attend to a session, please contact sara.schulthess@sib.swiss
