Intervention de Céline Bohnert, Maître de conférences, Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne, Membre junior de l’Institut Universitaire de France.

Cette intervention présentera l'utilisation du logiciel Omeka, adapté par la plate‐forme EMAN, pour l'édition des Mythologiae libri decem de Natale Conti. Cette mythographie renaissante, qui assemble une masse colossale de connaissances sur les cultes et les divinités antiques, parut à Venise en 1567, fut augmentée à Francfort en 1581 puis fut traduite en français à partir de 1600. Le projet Mythologia consiste dans l'édition de quatre des états du texte. Mais qu'est‐ce qu'éditer un corpus encyclopédique dans l'espace numérique ? Comme les autres mythographies humanistes, la Mythologie résiste à notre sens de l'ordre et du classement, fondé sur le principe de distinction et sur le déploiement arborescent. Si éditer un texte consiste d'abord à le rendre intelligible, notre première tâche consiste dans la structuration de ce corpus complexe : l'édition numérique organise ainsi la rencontre de deux rapports au savoir, entre humanisme et humanités numériques, et soutient une réflexion épistémologique sur nos propres modes de pensée.

Digital humanities at the heart of cultural heritage

January 13 - June 30, 2022

With the explosion of the new technologies, the scientific and cultural contents are diffused more and more frequently by the means of the digital; the critical apparatuses which accompany them also tend to be sophisticated. New practices of reading, exploitation, and diffusion are established. To apprehend these new phenomena, a discipline is emerging: Digital Humanities. Its definition, still in flux today, tends to focus on the creation of new knowledge in the humanities and social sciences. The changes, radical and profound, are not only technical but also epistemological, sociological and cognitive.

Moreover, digital content must respect the good practices that are affiliated with them. Structured and documented according to standard and interoperable formats, they pose before our eyes new objects of knowledge that require exploitation tools as well as innovative visualization processes.

These visualization techniques are becoming a crucial issue for all publishing and digital content management projects. They allow, for example, to highlight the ignored aspects of a work, to support a study, to deepen a research track or to provide evidence to a reasoning. But to do this, it is necessary to become aware of new ways of reading and acquiring encoded documents.

Our seminar will expose the main initiatives and practices related to digital humanities in order to publish and exploit cultural content. Digital publishing responds to encoding principles capable of interpreting the diversity of textual meanings in computer tags. The goal is not, however, to train in a tool or a method: that would narrow the scope of an emerging discipline. Rather, we would like to provide a historical overview of the issues and propose elements of approach in the management of cultural heritage.

The entire cycle of seminars takes place in person at the University of Corsica Pasquale Paoli, in the immersive room of the UMR 6240 Lisa (Simeoni building.) Health pass required.

It can be followed remotely in livestreaming on request sent by email to dhlive@univ-corse.fr. Scientific leaders: Christophe Luzi and Richard Walter.
