Podcasts, Blogs, and Video Essays: Digital Medieval Studies for the Masses? A Round Table Discussion – 7pm, Monday 3 July 2022
Session Abstract: Digital medieval studies as a subfield of digital humanities is characterised by various disciplines as well as a high number of international collaborations, and is populated by scholars with different educational backgrounds: from scholars trained as medievalists who implemented digital components only during their postgrad studies to scholars that approached medieval studies through their technical skills. This development in medieval studies inspires different approaches of communication between scholars and towards the public, like podcasts, blog posts, and video essays. This round table discussion brings together scholars from this domain to discuss their own experiences with the above mentioned formats. How has this changed their own views on scholarship and scientific outreach? How can scholars benefit from participating in those formats in terms of public outreach and network building? Does the digital turn in medieval studies result in an emerging importance of public outreach and science communication for both traditional scholarship and digital humanities?
Participants include Tessa Gengnagel (Universität zu Köln) | James B. Harr (North Carolina State University) | Aylin Malcolm (University of Pennsylvania). Sponsor: Coding Codices
Session Organiser and Moderator: Hannah Busch, Huygens Institute for the History of the Netherlands, Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts & Sciences, Amsterdam
Something Old, Something New: Digital Visions of the Manuscript Contexts of Early Medieval English: A Round Table Discussion – 7pm, Tuesday 4 July 2022
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Digital Medievalist (https://digitalmedievalist.org/), this round table interrogates the need for up-to-date editions, catalogues and on-line resources to act as our support and guide when IIIF-ing and ‘turning the pages’ of digital surrogates. Expect a heady mix of Digital Humanities, TEI, overviews of some exciting in-progress projects and maybe even the critiquing of the odd library catalogue or two. And then we’ll open up the discussion to discover what you’d most like to see! Newcomers to Digital Humanities are especially welcome to join the discussion!
