DIGITAL LITERARY ANNOTATION NEWSLETTER NO. 18 (MARCH 2018)

-------------------------

TEASYS – NEWS
Angelika Zirker (Humboldt-Universität Berlin) as well as Matthias  
Bauer, Miriam Lahrsow, and Leonie Kirchhoff (all Universität Tübingen)  
presented a poster at this year’s “DHd 2018 – Kritik der digitalen  
Vernunft[1].” The poster, titled “TEASys: Kollaborative digitale  
Annotationen als Lehr- und Lernprozess,” depicted the individual  
teaching and learning processes of students that collaboratively  
annotate literary texts. The presentation of the individual steps  
during the annotation process demonstrated the project’s  
sustainability as well as the added value of TEASys as a heuristic  
tool with regard to digital methods in literature classes.
At the same conference, Angelika Zirker  gave a talk on “Ambiguität  
und Annotation: Herausforderungen von Automatisierung und Digitalität”.

-------------------------

The Annotated Web Edition Directory[2] is looking forward to your  
suggestions. We are always on the look-out for new entries to add to  
the list. Feel free to recommend literary digital editions that  
include explanatory annotation (of the social or the editorial kind),  
web platforms, tools and applications that enable the user to  
(collaboratively) annotate texts. Please use the corresponding form on  
our webpage. We thank you for your help.

dealing with questions such as where the materials should be archived,  
how to maintain their digital features that make them readable,  
searchable, and/or even interactive.

The /Digital Humanities Quarterly/'s new special issue, "Imagining the  
DH Undergraduate[42]," discusses four major thematic clusters: program  
models, disciplinarity and DH pedagogy, tool development, and  
professional concerns.
