Associate Professor & Associate University Librarian, Washington and Lee University
An overview talk at a DH workshop luncheon for Washington and Lee University faculty.
Talk about finding primary sources (text and images) for HIST 229-01, a class exploring how the globalization of commodity products created a consumer culture.
An overview of urban protests in Argentina as a comparative study prepared as a guest lecutre for the course History 207-France: The Contested Nation. (The slides are mostly images. No audio or text of presentation available.)
Continuing the discussion of the digital landscape, we’ll examine issues in editing a text for a scholarly audience. Professor McCormick (Romance Languages) will visit the class to discuss his NEH-funded project to translate a medieval Franco-Italian epic, which will be encoded in TEI.
After introductions and an overview, we’ll examine various Web sites as a means of demonstrating the functionality of markup languages and the structure of the Web. We’ll progress from ordinary Web pages based on HTML to scholarly sites built on TEI. We’ll also examine the course TEI Web site and get you started on adding content to that site.
