Hi, Gabriel,
TOCS-IN is a good and easily usable and in principle up-to-date
( though I'm embarrassed , as one of the long-time volunteer
contributors, to be hereby
reminded that I'm delinquent in keeping
up my small part
) database in the field(s) concerned ( although it
doesn't cover book reviews
).
Robert's suggestion is therefore a reasonable one.
Another, more
directed, way to get
a good notion which journals should be
appropriate is to take a look in bibliographical
databases that
( unlike TOCS-IN ) incorporate a
thesaurus of subject terms, or at
least a system of rubrics
( *and* cover book reviews
).
One of these is Projekt DYABOLA ( 1956-Dezember 2009
). In its
hierarchical thesaurus, you'll find a
category "Elektronische
Datenverarbeitung" [ under "Praxis und
Institutionen" >
"Methoden" > ], which gives -- depending
on how you employ it --
at the moment at least as many as
854 hits. Of course, you can also
limit the results with all manner of search
parameters. If you don't
have the paid access to
that, you can try the free equivalent ZENON
exceptionally, find not easier but harder to use ).
I'd have a look at
the journals involved in that
"Elektronische Datenverarbeitung"
set ( or the part
of it you select out ) ; that may
give you some very
useful ideas.
Another very good possibility is the extremely up-to-date
Gnomon
with its thesaurus terms "Datenverarbeitung" /
synonym "Digitalisierung"
( 692 hits currently ) etc.
And then there's the Année philologique sur Internet
mysteriously failed to re-enter our IP-addresses here at
the U. of
Amsterdam for 2010, even though we paid up on time
through our
agent -- so that I can't get into
it at the moment. To compound the
problem, someone has made a mistake and had our hardcopy
_APh_
shipped off to remote storage. Anyway, the _APh_
does have (
though
no thesaurus, ) a rough category in
which one could look for journals
with this kind of apparent interest, as I
recollect.
A search ( or even a well-designed browse ) in Project
Muse, where one
can in searching limit to, among other things, the field
of Classics and
reviews, is another
possibility.
Paolo has mentioned the _Materiali e discussioni . . ._
and Amy the
_AJA_, and I suppose you've already
considered the most obvious
heavyweights like _Gnomon_, _Journal of
Hellenic studies_, _Journal
of Roman studies_, _Classical
review_ and maybe the _Revue des études
grecques_, _Mnemosyne_ etc. --
so I won't mention any of those
:-).
I hope the above may help you at least a bit. In any
event -- Good luck.

Dear
digital classicists,
What journals would you expect to review
usefully a volume of collected essays on digital research and classical
antiquity? I know of Digital Humanities periodicals, but I'm looking for
Classics or Archaeology focused journals that are general enough to be
interested in a volume whose classical contents span the ancient world (in
geography, date, discipline, etc.), and open enough to take this sort of
thing.
Any suggestions? Feel free to write off-list if you think
this isn't of interest to everyone; I'll summarize replies to the
list.
Thanks,
G
