On Making in the Digital Humanities

Abstract

Her research intersects digital humanities, early modern intellectual history, and cultural heritage and archival studies. She has previously held positions at King's College London, University College London and the British Museum. Her current work explores digital approaches to archival silences. John Bradley worked in the digital humanities from the early 1970s until 1997, first at the University of Toronto and then at the Department of Digital Humanities at King's College London, continuing past his retirement in 2015. Most of his posts were 'academic-related' until he was made an academic by King's in 2011. His work includes the development of the text analysis software TACT and the experimental software platform Pliny. He has collaborated on more than 20 public humanities-oriented digital resources. Dauvit Broun has been lecturing at the University of Glasgow since 1990, and since 2009 as Professor of Scottish History. He was Principal Investigator of projects centring on the creation and development of the PoMS database (two funded by the AHRC, 2007-13, with John Bradley as a Co-Investigator, and one funded by the Leverhulme Trust, 2013-17, with John Bradley as Co-Investigator).Dino Buzzetti taught history of philosophy, mainly medieval, at the University of Bologna. For several years he ran a course on documentation and historical document processing at the Faculty of Preservation of Cultural Heritage and a course on humanities computing for philosophy students. His main research topic was the history of logic in relation to contemporary developments in philosophical and theological doctrines.Averil Cameron is a historian of late antiquity and Byzantium.
