Dlaczego praktyki edycji cyfrowych?

PrefaceWstęp do numeru „Sztuki Edycji” zatytułowanego „Praktyki edycji cyfrowych”

Oświadczenie

My niżej podpisani stanowczo protestujemy przeciwko tezom dra hab. prof. UKW Macieja Glogera, zamieszczonym we wstępie do tomu Między pozytywizmem i nacjonalizmem. Przemiany kultury polskiej w latach 1886-1918. W 2016 roku wzięliśmy udział w identycznie zatytułowanej konferencji w Sopocie, licząc na stricte naukowy, obiektywny kształt zarówno obrad, jak i późniejszej publikacji. Jak jednak wynika z przedmowy do książki, zamiar organizatora był wyraźnie podporządkowany celom ideologicznym. Mac..

Krajobraz naukowego edytorstwa cyfrowego – możliwości i wyzwania

The article characterizes the landscape of digital scholarly editing (DSE) in the perspective of reflections on traditional editing treating the activities of this field as an essential part of literary research. DSE is presented as an evolutionary development of print editing, benefiting from its achievements, offering numerous new possibilities in the area as treating editions as datasets and tools for literary scholars, as well as marking differences and varieties of versions, manuscript properties or multi-level historical-literary and editorial commentary. Based on the practical experience of creating NEC on the TEI Panorama platform (TEI.NPLP.PL), the article also signals some key issues, conditions and limitations of digital scholarly editing.W artykule opisano krajobraz naukowego edytorstwa cyfrowego (NEC) w perspektywie refleksji nad edytorstwem tradycyjnym traktującym działania z tej dziedziny jako istotny element badań literackich. NEC zostało przedstawione jako ewolucyjne rozwinięcie edytorstwa tradycyjnego, korzystające z jego osiągnięć, ale oferujące liczne nowe możliwości w obszarze traktowania edycji także jako zbioru danych oraz narzędzi dla badaczy literatury, oznaczania różnic i odmian wersji, właściwości rękopisu czy tworzenia wielopiętrowego komentarza historycznoliterackiego i edytorskiego. Wychodząc od doświadczeń praktycznych przy tworzeniu naukowych edycji cyfrowych na platformie TEI Panorama (TEI.NPLP.PL), w artykule wskazano też kilka najistotniejszych zagadnień, uwarunkowań i ograniczeń naukowego edytorstwa cyfrowego

Kilka uwag o intymności kolekcji cyfrowych przy okazji prac nad projektem Sienkiewicz ponowoczesny – laboratorium cyfrowe

The article presents the fields in which the scientific contents published on the Internet may touch the topics that are considered intimate. The basis for the analysis is the digital collection entitled Postmodern Sienkiewicz on the NPLP.PL platform, with reference to the process of its creation by the team of Nowa Panorama Literatury Polskiej, while realizing the grant entitled Postmodern Sienkiewicz – digital laboratory. The analyses indicate that the contents which may be considered intimate of indecent are sometimes exhibited in the process of 1) structuring and categorizing digital contents, it they are within texts which constitute an important element of analyses presented in a digital collection, 2) using photographs of items and rooms related to intimate elements of an author’s biography as an illustrative material, 3) using visuals (such as pictures of graphics) which draw attention to such issues.Artykuł przedstawia obszary, w których publikowane w internecie treści naukowe mogą dotykać kwestii uznawanych za intymne. Podstawę analizy stanowi naukowa kolekcja cyfrowa „Sienkiewicz ponowoczesny” na platformie NPLP.PL z uwzględnieniem procesu jej tworzenia przez zespół Nowej Panoramy Literatury Polskiej podczas realizowanie grantu Sienkiewicz ponowoczesny – laboratorium cyfrowe. Rozpoznania wskazują na to, że treści mogące zostać uznane za intymne czy tez nieprzyzwoite bywają niekiedy eksponowane przez 1) procesy strukturyzacji i kategoryzowania treści cyfrowych, jeżeli znajdują się one w tekstach stanowiących istotny element analiz przedstawionych w kolekcji cyfrowej; 2) wykorzystanie jako materiału ilustracyjnego zdjęć przedmiotów i pomieszczeń związanych z intymnymi kwestiami biografii pisarza; 3) wykorzystanie materiałów wizualnych (np. obrazów i grafik), które zwracają na takie kwestie uwagę

O problemach zarządzania projektowego w humanistyce cyfrowej (na przykładzie Nowej Panoramy Literatury Polskiej)

The article presents the problems associated with managing digital humanities projects, as well as the issues of building and maintaining a team based on project funding, utilising the experiences of conducting digital projects in the years 2013–2018 by the team of the New Panorama of Polish Literature (NPPL), acting within the Institute of Literary Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Explored are the few advantages and numerous disadvantages of depending solely on grants when maintaining a team, referring to examples of completed and ongoing NPPL team projects. The article also highlights the problems encountered when working on those projects. The most important conclusion to be drawn from this analysis is that, although project funding can be used to begin the creation of a serious digital humanities project, maintaining it and securing stability for it is not possible without launching regular funding irrespective of the grants awarded

Research Data Management for Arts and Humanities: Integrating Voices of the Community

The idea behind the DARIAH Research Data Management Working Group is to tackle the challenges associated with the implementation of new FAIR and open data sharing mandates, and offer a unique space for collaboration among representatives of all major arts and humanities disciplines, cultural heritage professionals, and data management experts. More specifically, we are building a knowledge hub for new professionals around data management support (data managers, data stewards, open science officers, subject librarians etc.) from across DARIAH’s national hubs to exchange across the discipline-specific dimension. During our meetings, the conflict between the need for and emergence of new data support roles, and the lack of any established domain-specific curriculum to train them, or, in some cases, even a lack of established good practices, became a recurrent topic which we aimed to address. Instead of embarking on the giant endeavour of curating an exhaustive and authoritative textbook for research data support specialists who work in the arts and humanities field, our idea is to give a snapshot of our own activities in the field and highlight the valuable work of others. Accordingly, the present publication can be read as the written form of a roundtable (or town hall) discussion where experts from Austria, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Poland, and Spain have come and sat together to report and discuss past or ongoing work, share their fields of interests and provide honest and critical reflections, reveal how their institutions have developed capacities for data support, share their own stories of becoming data support professionals in the domain, and, most importantly, explore together what solutions, tools, practices, and other resources could be used and could be generalised across borders and disciplines. This publication is the result of the Working Group’s first writing sprint, held between the 23 and 24 June 2022 at the Institute of Literary Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IBL PAN), in the Staszic Palace. The event was made possible by the DARIAH third Working Groups’ (WG) Funding Scheme Call for the years 2021–2023 and the resulting grant, which was administered by the Digital Humanities Centre at the Institute of Literary Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IBL PAN)

Future of Scholarly Communication (H2020 OPERAS-P WP6 report)

This report discusses the scholarly communication issues in Social Sciences and Humanities that are relevant to the future development and functioning of OPERAS. The outcomes collected here can be divided into two groups of innovations regarding 1) the operation of OPERAS, and 2) its activities. The “operational” issues include the ways in which an innovative research infrastructure should be governed (Chapter 1) as well as the business models for open access publications in Social Sciences and Humanities (Chapter 2). The other group of issues is dedicated to strategic areas where OPERAS and its servicesmay play an instrumental role in providing, enabling, or unlocking innovation: FAIR data (Chapter 3), bibliodiversity and multilingualism in scholarly communication (Chapter 4), the future of scholarly writing (Chapter 5), and quality assessment (Chapter 6). Each chapter provides an overview of the main findings and challenges with emphasis on recommendations for OPERAS and other stakeholders like e-infrastructures, publishers, SSH researchers, research performing organisations, policy makers, and funders. Links to data and further publications stemming from work concerning particular tasks are located at the end of each chapter
