Dear Colleagues,
The recent DH workshop (Workshop program) held at Stanford University (April 9, 2019) has shown how, as Digital Humanities continues to gain momentum, the field is intersecting with an ever-widening range of disciplines including Natural Language Processing, Library and Information Science, History, Literature, and Translation Studies to name only a few. The growth of these fields within DH enables us to break new scientific ground. For example, the existing reservoir of public domain translations of literary texts, once tracked and digitalized, provides a new wealth of resources to sustain knowledge diversity, preserve our cultural heritage and help us map the global circulation and reception of information and texts.
In the wake of this workshop, the Journal of Data Mining and Digital Humanities will publish a special issue "Collecting, Preserving and Disseminating Endangered Cultural Heritage for New Understandings Through Multilingual Approaches" featuring a selection of papers from the workshop and is opening up to additional contributions presenting recent research that aims at collecting, preserving, and dissiminating endangered knowledge and cultural heritage for new understandings through multilingual approaches.
We welcome submissions including but not limited to the following topics:
