It is with great delight that the DigiPal team at the Department of Digital Humanities (King’s College London), announce their third Symposium. We’ve built up a scholarly camaraderie over the last two years and much look forward to our annual opportunity to discuss and debate the computer-assisted study of medieval handwriting and manuscripts. Of course, we’ll need some papers. So…
How to propose a paper ?
Papers of 20 minutes in length are invited on any aspect of digital approaches to the study of medieval handwriting and manuscripts.
The topics below might help guide potential submissions:
- terminology for describing handwriting
- visualisation of manuscript evidence and data
- meaning and mining in palaeography
- automatic letter-form identification
- methods for dating/localising script
- crowd-sourcing in palaeography
- the practical and theoretical consequences of the use of digital images
- examples of research that would benefit from a Digital Humanities (or DigiPal) approach
The above are only serving suggestions, so please don’t feel limited to these topics.
To propose a paper, please email a brief abstract (250 words max.) to digipal [at] kcl.ac.uk
The deadline for the receipt of submissions is 10.23pm on Wednesday 3rd July 2013
