Requirements for Participation

Digital Humanities in Biblical, Early Jewish, and Christian Studies


Program Unit Type: Consultation
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The first session will welcome invited papers on the topic «Papyrology and Digital Humanities»; it will be a joined session with the Papyrology and Early Christian Studies section. The second session accepts papers: it will focus on «Data Visualization, Digital Paleography and Images». Data Visualisation is still a new topic in Biblical Studies and manuscripts fields. We invite papers that tried to bridge the gap between «seeing» and «reading» textual elements, whatever it is a close reading or a distant reading on big data; papers on network analysis and GIS are welcomed. We invite proposals exploring the practice and theory of digitizing ancient manuscripts of the Bible and other early Jewish and Christian literatures. Abstracts focused on specific projects, as well as more general and epistemological reflections, are welcomed.
