Since the turn of the millennium, digital and computational methodologies have become increasingly prolific at the cutting edge of language and humanities research. Utilising digital techniques from other disciplines has allowed historically qualitative fields to rethink key questions, bring new understandings to foundational sources, increase information accessibility, and lead to previously unexplored cross-disciplinary research.

This conference brings together researchers who are using digital methods to rethink established fields, explore new applications for conventional digital methods, and look at how digital methodologies are being translated in the cross-disciplinary space.

Presentations will capture a wide range of subject areas across the many communities of scholars utilising digital methods – both from novices and expert practitioners. Keynotes include Glenn Roe (Professor of Digital Scholarship and French Literature & Senior Research Fellow at Jesus College, University of Oxford) and Ruth Ahnert (Professor of Literary History & Digital Humanities, Queen Mary University of London).

The event is part of the Cheng Kar Shun Digital Hub Programme with support from the Voltaire Foundation, Digital Scholarship@Oxford and Jesus College Oxford.

Tickets include lunch, tea breaks and a wine reception.
