Course in digital humanities offered at ENS-PSL.

How to build a research corpus and to valorize it in a digital environment? Using a concrete example - the archives of the Ecole Normale Supérieure - this course will introduce students to all the stages of a collaborative research project in digital humanities, from the constitution of the corpus to its exploration, its editorialization and its final publication.
Work sessions: Mondays, from 5 to 7 pm.
The working sessions take place at 45 rue d'Ulm, in the conference room of the Data Science Center (staircase B, 3rd floor).
Registration: please write to lea.saint-raymond@ens.psl.eu
Validation: active participation in the research project.
Office: Observatoire des Humanités numériques de l'ENS-PSL : office BC211, by appointment (lea.saint-raymond@ens.psl.eu)
The group of students who validated the course last year worked on the collection of some 1,200 impressionist and post-impressionist works of the dental surgeon George Viau (1855-1939), from the constitution of the corpus to its exploration, editorialization and final publication on the Digital Viau website.
