CONF: Digital Humanities Conference 2019, Utrecht
DH2019 Utrecht Hosted by Utrecht University, the 2019 iteration of the Digital Humanities (DH) conference, the annual international conference of the Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations, will take place in the medieval city of Utrecht, one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands. The city’s rapid modernization and growth has inspired the conference’s guiding theme, complexity. Spread across three conference days and two days of pre-conference workshops, participants will present their newest DH-research and the applications of their work.
Tobias Schweizer: An Interactive, Multi-layer Edition of Jacob Bernoulli's Scientific Notebook Meditationes as Part of Benoulli-Euler Online:
The Meditationes is the scientific notebook of the mathematician Jacob I Bernoulli (1654–1705), a member of the Bernoulli dynasty from Basel. The notebook consists of 367 pages; more than 90% of the 287 entries deal with issues in mathematics and physics. Parts of the Meditationes have been published in six volumes over the past decades according to rather varying standards.
Our project will provide a complete edition of the manuscript for the first time, providing facsimiles, transcriptions (from diplomatic to normalized texts), translations, and comments. The edition is part of Bernoulli-Euler Online (BEOL), a platform for early modern mathematical texts. BEOL makes texts available to historians of science and will provide tools for working with the resources available on the platform.
