We propose to host an Institute in Advanced Topics in Digital Humanities focusing on techniques for the discovery, visualization and analysis of networks in Humanities corpuses. Networks in this context are broadly defined to include both external networks (networks of production, networks of circulation, networks of influence, and networks of reception) and internal networks (networks of characters, networks of text, networks of language) in the data. The institute will consist of two main parts: a ten day intensive institute, taking place over two weeks in June 2010, and a shorter three day research symposium in June 2011. Both events will be housed at NSF's Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics on UCLA's campus. |
