Dear\u00a0Think<\/span>\u00a0Factory<\/span>\u00a0Workers,<\/p>\n

If you are already headed to the Pacific Rim this summer (I wish I were!), then this Global DH conference in Japan would be pretty sweet. I send this on to you mostly so that you can see that the\u00a0conversation we’ll have next Wednesday about global DH is part of a lively and current\u00a0global<\/i>\u00a0process.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

JADH2019:\u00a0<\/span>“Localization in Global DH”<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Japanese Association for Digital Humanities (JADH) is pleased to announce its ninth annual conference, to be held at Kansai University, Osaka, Japan, August 29-31, 2019, hosted by the Open Research Center for Asian Studies (KU-ORCAS) at Kansai University.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The conference will feature posters, papers and panels. We invite proposals on all aspects of Digital Humanities, and especially encourage papers treating topics that deal with practices that aim to cross borders, for example, between academic fields, media, languages, cultures, organizations, and so on, as related to the field of Digital Humanities.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While globalization has spread our scholarly activities, digital humanities must inevitably confront the local: linguistically, geographically, historically.\u00a0<\/span>JADH has supported DH research relating to Japan, where the association is located, and the wider East Asian region, for almost a decade since it was first established. Through the activities of its members and its annual conference, JADH has also contributed to developing global approaches in DH.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>To exchange our experiences in the world, we welcome presentations treating \u201cLocalization in Global DH\u201d this year. Although this is our\u00a0 suggested central focus, we nonetheless welcome papers on a broad range of DH topics.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Research issues, including data mining, information design and modeling, software studies, and humanities research enabled through the digital medium; computer-based research and computer applications in literary, linguistic, cultural, and historical studies, including electronic literature, public humanities, and interdisciplinary aspects of modern scholarship. Examples might include text analysis, corpora, corpus linguistics, language processing, language learning, and endangered languages; the digital arts, architecture, music, film, theater, new media and related areas; the creation and curation of humanities digital resources; the role of digital humanities in academic curricula; The range of topics covered by Digital Humanities can also be consulted in the journal Digital Scholarship in the Humanities (<\/span>http:\/\/dsh.oxfordjournals.org\/<\/a><\/span><\/u>), Oxford University Press.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Abstracts submitted should be of 500-1000 words in length in English, including the title.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please submit abstracts via\u00a0 the open conference system\u00a0 (link below) by 11:59 PM, May 7, 2019 (HAST).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
