Entre corpus, herramientas y archivos de autoridad: TextGrid Repository para los Estudios de Literatura Española

In this article, we discuss the ways in which Digital Humanities projects organise their resources, and argue for the need to collaborate with specialised services from other institutions for specific tasks, just as research publishers do. More specifically, we argue that libraries have a new central role to play in the publication of research data in repositories. Using the TextGrid Repository (TGR) as an example, we present its main components, its history, its main features, and discuss its advantages and disadvantages in comparison with similar repositories and technologies. We then present its current development within the Text+ consortium, both in the form of new features but also in the integration of existing corpora, making it interesting not only for German literature (as has been the case until now), but also for other traditions, especially Spanish literature.En este artículo abordamos las formas en que los proyectos de Humanidades Digitales organizan sus recursos y argumentamos a favor de colaborar con servicios especializados de otras instituciones para tareas específicas, al igual que hacen los editores de investigación. Más concretamente, defendenmos que las bibliotecas tienen un nuevo papel central que desempeñar en la publicación de datos de investigación a través de repositorios. Tomando como ejemplo el TextGrid Repository (TGR), presentamos sus principales componentes, su historia, sus principales características y discutimos sus ventajas y desventajas en comparación con repositorios y tecnologías similares. A continuación presentamos su desarrollo actual dentro del consorcio Text+, tanto en relación a nuevas funcionalidades, así como a la integración de corpus ya existentes. Estos nuevos corpus hacen que este repositorio no solo sea interesante para la literatura alemana (como hasta ahora), sino también para otras tradiciones, especialmente en español

Post-2015 Refugees Welcome Initiatives in Sweden : Cosmopolitan Underpinnings

This chapter contributes to the literature that seeks to understand the social and political developments of Refugees Welcome initiatives beyond the immediacy of 2015 “crisis”. Based on interviews conducted in 2018 with activists who hold leading positions in the national umbrella organisation Refugees Welcome Sweden, the chapter presents the analysis of their perceptions and self-reflections on engagement with refugees and on working for a humane asylum politics. It exemplifies how the moral and political dimensions of cosmopolitanism are intertwined in pointing to the universal aim of equality and at the same time demanding that it is realised locally. While none of our interviewees employed the notion of cosmopolitanism, they outlined a normative order that emerges as a political project towards a reconstruction of society along lines of equality and justice
