ALL WELCOME
We are inviting both students and established researchers involved in
the application of the digital humanities to the study of the ancient
world to come and introduce their work. The focus of this seminar
series is in line with that of the Digital Classicist as a whole, in
that the aim is to bring together scholars to address issues of
collaborative work and the new methodologies enabled and in some cases
necessitated by the digital academy. As we know, these digital methods
are far from being marginal to traditional classical scholarship; they
offer new perspectives and new ways to approach essential research
questions, thus both underpinning and becoming central to the
advancement of our discipline.
The seminars will be followed by wine and refreshments.
