DIGITAL LITERARY ANNOTATION NEWSLETTER NO. 49 (OCTOBER 2020)

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

TEASYS – NEWS

The Annotating Literature student group mentors are currently  
preparing for a new and exciting semester! Because of the ongoing  
pandemic and constantly changing regulations, the groups will continue  
to meet online during the winter term. For a short introductory  
presentation that will provide you with some basic information on how  
to participate in our project, you can follow the link here[1].

This winter term, Angelika Zirker will be offering an online course on  
“The Theory and Practice of Annotation: Philology and the Digital  
Humanities[2]”. The corpus for annotation will be Charles Dickens’s  
/The Chimes/ (1844). It is open for the DH Profile in the various MA  
programmes at the Faculty of Humanities as well as all philology  
students of Tübingen University that have concluded their advanced  
module in literary and/or cultural studies of the English Seminar.

In the Tübingen Collaborative Research Centre 1391 “Different  
Aesthetics”[3], five projects from five different disciplines share a  
topic: annotation. What are similarities, given all differences? Where  
do issues overlap, and where can shared conceptual basics be found?  
These (and more) questions will be addressed by projects A3, B3, B5  
and C5, chaired by B6 during a workshop on October 27. Evelyn Gius (TU  
Darmstadt), an expert in the field of (digital) annotation will also  
be present. She will give a talk on the topic and enrich our ensuing  
discussion based on her experience in annotation projects. For more  
information, see[3].

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

The Annotated Web Edition Directory[4] 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.
