Digital Humanities Reading Group: November

The Digital Humanities Reading Group is a light and easy way to get into regularly discussing peer-reviewed DH work, no previous knowledge necessary. Everyone is welcome.

The group is across the Humanities faculty and is currently hosted at Engerom.

We discuss either a work-in-progress text by one of the participants, a guest presentation, or a published paper, as part of an informal and friendly meet-up.

This session, we will discuss Stockwell, Peter, and Michaela Mahlberg. “Mind-Modelling with Corpus Stylistics in David Copperfield.” Language and Literature (Harlow, England) 24, no. 2 (2015): 129–47. doi:10.1177/0963947015576168 

  • 15 minutes - Discussion of the methodologies used in the paper – helping each other to understand anything that is unfamiliar, technical or otherwise
  • 15 minutes - Discussion of the ‘why’ behind the paper – why do we think the journal chose to publish it?
  • 15 minutes - Is there anything from the paper we could use for our own research? (roundtable)
