Meeting Description:

(Workshop of Digital Humanities)

Focus on Africa:

In the week before the DH2019 conference, the Lorentz Center in Leiden (The
Netherlands) will host a satellite workshop aimed at the articulation of the
specific developments in the field of DH that are taking shape in Africa and
their potential to enhance the global DH agenda.  In addition, attention will
be given to capacity building and the planning of 'science4development'
initiatives. A call for nominations and applications from African scholars
will be published soon. In the selection procedure extra weight will be
attributed to applications from (co)authors of papers and posters accepted for
the DH2019 conference program. A limited number of grants to partly cover the
costs for travel, accommodation during the workshop and the DH2019 conference
fee can be applied for as well. Workshop date: 1-5 July, 2019. Check this
DH2019 conference webpage for details:

Conference Theme:

The theme of the 2019 conference is 'Complexities'. This theme has a
multifaceted connection with Digital Humanities scholarship. Complexities
intends to inspire people to focus on Digital Humanities (DH) as the humanist
way of building complex models of complex realities, analysing them with
computational methods and communicating the results to a broader public. The
theme also invites people to think of the theoretical, social, and cultural
complexity and diversity in which DH scholarship is immersed and asks our
community to interact consciously and critically in myriad ways, through the
conference and the networks, institutions and the enterprises interested in DH
research. Finally, it means involving the next generation, teaching DH to
students--the people who will need to deal with the complexities of the
future.

Proposals related to these themes are particularly welcome, but the DH2019
will accept submissions on any other aspect or field of Digital Humanities.
