Electronic Texts in the Humanities
Author: Susan M. Hockey
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0198711948
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
With word processing and the Internet, computing is much more part and parcel of the everyday life of the humanities scholar, but computers can do much more than assist with writing or Internet searching. This book introduces a range of tools and techniques for manipulating and analysing electronic texts in the humanities. It shows how electronic texts can be used for the literary analysis, linguistic analysis, authorship attribution, and the preparation and publication of electronic scholarly editions. It assesses the ways in which research in corpus and computational linguistics can feed into better electronic tools for humanities research. The tools and techniques discussed in this book will feed into better Internet tools and pave the way for the electronic scholar of the twenty-first century.

Workshops of Empire
Author: Eric Bennett
Publisher: University of Iowa Press
ISBN: 1609383729
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
During and just after World War II, an influential group of American writers and intellectuals projected a vision for literature that would save the free world. Novels, stories, plays, and poems, they believed, could inoculate weak minds against simplistic totalitarian ideologies, heal the spiritual wounds of global catastrophe, and just maybe prevent the like from happening again. As the Cold War began, high-minded and well-intentioned scholars, critics, and writers from across the political spectrum argued that human values remained crucial to civilization and that such values stood in dire need of formulation and affirmation. They believed that the complexity of literature—of ideas bound to concrete images, of ideologies leavened with experiences—enshrined such values as no other medium could. Creative writing emerged as a graduate discipline in the United States amid this astonishing swirl of grand conceptions. The early workshops were formed not only at the time of, but in the image of, and under the tremendous urgency of, the postwar imperatives for the humanities. Vivid renderings of personal experience would preserve the liberal democratic soul—a soul menaced by the gathering leftwing totalitarianism of the USSR and the memory of fascism in Italy and Germany. Workshops of Empire explores this history via the careers of Paul Engle at the University of Iowa and Wallace Stegner at Stanford. In the story of these founding fathers of the discipline, Eric Bennett discovers the cultural, political, literary, intellectual, and institutional underpinnings of creative writing programs within the university. He shows how the model of literary technique championed by the first writing programs—a model that values the interior and private life of the individual, whose experiences are not determined by any community, ideology, or political system—was born out of this Cold War context and continues to influence the way creative writing is taught, studied, read, and written into the twenty-first century.

ELINOR – Electronic Library Project
Author: Anne Ramsden
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110977206
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
ELINOR presents the final report on the ELINOR project, conducted at De Montfort University in the UK between 1992 and 1996. It was the first time a working electronic library was built for use by students across a university and the project proved extremely valuable in generating a large amount of practical experience. This will enable many libraries to understand the implications of the transition phase towards the electronic library.

Designing Usable Electronic Text
Author: Andrew Dillon
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 0415240603
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
Poor design and a failure to consider the user often act against the effectiveness in online communication. Designing Usable Electronic Text, Second Edition explores the human issues that underlie information usage and stresses that usability is the main barrier to the electronic medium's campaign to gain mass acceptance. The book is a revision of the successful first edition with a new emphasis on the Web and hypertext design. With the emergence of new uses of information, such as e-commerce and telemedicine, text presentation will take on a new and greater importance. Focus on the design framework and an empirical approach make this a valuable guide to designing effective, user-friendly electronic text.
