Per diversi motivi la Romania per molto tempo non ha preso parte agli sforzi internazionali per l’esplorazione delle fonti curiali medievali conservate nell’Archivio Segreto Vaticano, ne- gli archivi ...romani o nelle raccolte documentarie romene. Attualmente questa situazione però sta cambiando. Il crescente interesse per questa importante documentazione è incoraggiato e facilitato in primo luogo da molteplici iniziative mirate a digitalizzare le fonti papali o curiali conservate localmente, rendendole così accessibili ai ricercatori. In brevissimo tempo le banche dati e/o le collezioni di immagini digitali di fonti medievali, fornite dai progetti internazionali, nazionali o istituzionali, sono diventate strumenti indispensabili di ricerca. La Transilvania, un tempo provincia del regno d’Ungheria e perciò parte del mondo latino medievale, trae notevo- lissimo profitto da questa ondata di progetti sostenuti e controllati da tecniche informatiche di vecchia o recente data. Il saggio vuole discutere come le ricerche medievali legate alla Transil- vania (tradizionalmente un contesto di studi multilingue e internazionale) usano questi nuovi collegamenti digitali e quali siano i limiti dei vari progetti. Infine, ci si interroga su quali potreb- bero essere i prossimi passi per un sviluppo e un miglioramento ulteriori.

Im März 2018 fand am Deutschen Historischen Institut (DHI) in Rom eine Tagung zur Bedeutung der Digital Humanities für die Erschließung und Auswertung der kurialen Quellen statt. Das am genannten ...Institut angesiedelte Repertorium Germanicum (RG) bereitet das Quellenmaterial des Archivio Segreto Vaticano und weiterer hauptsächlich römischer Archive für die Geschichte der Territorien und Diözesen des Alten Reiches auf, die weit über die Grenzen des heutigen Deutschlands reichen. Die damit verbundene überregionale Dimension des RG ist Anlass für einen Austausch mit verwandten Erschließungsprojekten im europäischen Vergleich, von denen hier sieben Fallstudien von Autor/-innen aus fünf Ländern vorgestellt werden.
This Editorial presents the Special Collection ‘Data and Workflows for Multilingual Digital Humanities’. The Special Collection brings together an assortment of contributions that explore how power ...structures operate in digital knowledge production with a focus on multilingualism and the management of multilingual data. The seven articles in the Special Collection offer an overview of innovative approaches and results that highlight the richness and the challenges of the intersection between multilingualism and the digital realm for humanities research. They showcase innovative workflows for multilingual data acquisition, curation, integration, and analysis, reflecting the efforts of Multilingual Digital Humanities research to ensure broad participation and representation in digital knowledge production. ‘Data and Workflows for Multilingual Digital Humanities’ contributes to make digital knowledge production more inclusive, equitable, and representative of global diversity.

Dieser Beitrag widmet sich in unterschiedlichen Perspektiven dem Zusammenspiel von Fachreferat und Digital Humanities. Insbesondere wird dabei der Frage nach dem Potential der Digital Humanities für ...spezifische Tätigkeiten im Fachreferat nachgegangen. Da die Autor*innen vor ihrem Einstieg ins Fachreferat selbst in den Digital Humanities tätig waren, wird im Beitrag auch thematisiert, welche für ein Fachreferat gewinnbringende Qualifikationen sich durch die vorherige Tätigkeit in den Digital Humanities ergeben können. Dabei wird aber auch auf Grenzen und Gefahren eingegangen, die mit einer Überforderung des Fachreferats im Kontext neuer digitaler Arbeitsweisen einhergehen können.
Today almost every aspect of life for which data exists can be rendered as a network. Financial data, social networks, biological ecologies: all are visualized in links and nodes, lines connecting ...dots. A network visualization of a corporate infrastructure could look remarkably similar to that of a terrorist organization. In An Aesthesia of Networks , Anna Munster argues that this uniformity has flattened our experience of networks as active and relational processes and assemblages. She counters the "network anaesthesia" that results from this pervasive mimesis by reinserting the question of experience, or aesthesia, into networked culture and aesthetics. Rather than asking how humans experience computers and networks, Munster asks how networks experience -- what operations they perform and undergo to change and produce new forms of experience. Drawing on William James's radical empiricism, she asserts that networked experience is assembled first and foremost through relations, which make up its most immediately sensed and perceived aspect. Munster critically considers a range of contemporary artistic and cultural practices that engage with network technologies and techniques, including databases and data mining, the domination of search in online activity, and the proliferation of viral media through YouTube. These practices -- from artists who "undermine" data to musicians and VJs who use intranetworked audio and video software environments -- are concerned with the relationality at the core of today's network experience.
Digital humanities is an interdisciplinary field as well as a set of methods and approaches that combine computational methods with humanistic inquiry. While discussions about the digital ...transformation of education have become more intense due to the increasing impact of digital technologies, there is still a need to explore the practice of integrating these technologies with audio-visual-oral English teaching. This article starts from the three characteristics of digital humanities research and moves on to document a three-year-long integration of digital technologies into audio-visual-oral English teaching, with emphasis on building online education infrastructure, deepening technology integration guided by the SAMR Model, and incorporating contests into formal learning. It emphasizes that the incorporation of digital technologies not only brings about significant changes in teaching philosophy, content, methods, and evaluation but also fosters the development of a new type of teacher-student relationship as teachers’ role evolves from simply “teaching and problem-solving” to placing greater emphasis on “guiding and mentoring”.
This short reflective essay meditates on how/why digital Blackness need not strive to recover or repair humanity for Black peoples. It questions the teleological drive for building Black digital ...archives and technologies motivated by representational politics. The foray performatively suggests otherwise by leaning into Sylvia Wynter’s (2007) notion that such folding into the figure of the human — overrepresented by Western Man — snuffs polyvalent and polysemic pluralities for Blackness.
