Meeting Description:
The aim of the conference NACLA2 is to explore the relevance of a corpus based
approach to performance texts.
The performance text includes classical drama – plays, scenarios, film
scripts, etc. – but potentially also texts relating to other dramatic modes,
in the largest sense, including parliamentary debate, minutes of meetings,
interviews, etc. all of which involve some aspect of performance.
If there are now TEI criteria for the xml labelling of theatrical texts, there
are as yet no such norms for the daily dramaturgy of debates, etc.
(http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/DR.html) a point which
has led some researchers to take inspiration from standards for the theatrical
text in the structuration of other similarly heterogeneous text types (cf. the
PolMine initiative https://polmine.github.io/about/). The xml tags of TEI are
in addition not always the most relevant, depending on the type of data and
the tasks envisaged (Hardie 2014, ''Modest XML for Corpora : Not a standard,
but a suggestion.'' ICAME Journal 38.1).
Call for Papers:
The conference aims to bring together researchers in NLP and in corpus
linguistics and researchers in theatre or media studies (for example), with a
common reflexion on the structuration of textual data in these special fields
and on the sort of exploitation one might develop, according to the chosen
modes of structuration.
Questions asked might include :
- What structural tags for what data ?
- What structuration for what exploitation ?
- Is it possible to develop automatic or semi-automated procedures for
structuring this type of text ?
- What types of exploitation can these data give rise to ?
- What visualisation tools or associativity measures are most relevant ?
- Independently of the opportunity for interdisciplinary exchange, the project
is also intended to lead to a publication and to future collaboration on
related themes.
The project aims to foster dialogue between researchers in linguistics (corpus
linguistics and NLP), in IT, in literature and in the social sciences. It is a
project that is fully in keeping with the identity of the university, in
associating cultural heritage, society and the digital humanities, via the
exploitation of linguistic data in each of these fields.
Submission guidelines
Anonymous submissions for a 30' presentation should include a title, a short
bibliography of no more than ten references and a text of approximately 400
words indicating the theoretical framework, the aims and methods of the study,
the data involved and the perspective (structuration and/or exploitation).
Submissions are made directly via the conference website. First you will need
to create an account on sciencesconf.org, if you do not already have one, then
click on ''Submissions'' then ''Submit an abstract''. Each submission will
receive two anonymous reviews the results of which will be communicated before
15 April 2018. Should you encounter any problems, send an email to the
''Contact'' address via the menu on the left.
The final date for submissions is set at 15 March 2018.
