Meeting Description:

The DH Training Workshop: Digital Methods for Linguistic Investigation will
take place November 13-15, 2019 at Freie Universität Berlin.  
The event is organized by Simona Olivieri, Humboldt Research Fellow at Seminar
für Semitistik und Arabistik, Freie Universität Berlin, with the support of
the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation.
 
The workshop will bring together 20 trainees together with experts to share
experiences, methods and techniques for the creation, management and use of
linguistic data. Our aim is to present a sketch of different methodologies for
the digital treatment of languages and linguistic information, and to give an
overall view of the benefits of applying digital methods to investigate
humanities research questions.
 
Ideal trainees will be students, PhD students and postdocs from linguistic
disciplines interested in digital treatment of languages, e-lexicography and
creation of digital resources. The training will focus on standards-compliant
representations of texts in digital form, and sessions will be organized in
hands-on slots on data modeling and managing.
 
Main instructors will be Laurent Romary (Directeur de Recherche, Inria, Team
ALMAnaCH, France), Toma Tasovac, (Director of the Belgrade Center for Digital
Humanities (BCDH)/Director of DARIAH-EU), and Giuliano Lancioni (Roma Tre
University).

The workshop will also feature public lectures to present Digital Humanities
projects on Arabic and Syriac. Keynote lectures will be given by Simona
Olivieri (FU Berlin) and Giuliano Lancioni (Roma Tre University), Karlheinz
Mörth (Director of the Austrian Center for Digital Humanities – Austrian
Academy of Sciences), and George Kiraz (Institute for Advanced Study,
Princeton / Beth Mardutho).
 
Participation is free of charge.


Call for Papers:

Applicants should submit their bio and a short proposal presenting their

to Dr. Simona Olivieri simona.olivieri at fu-berlin.de by July 15, 2019.
