Despite twenty years of constant developments in the digital humanities field and, in particular, the decisive progress made by the MUFI, the encoding of ancient scripts is still extremely problematic. With a view to gaining a comprehensive view of the current situation and future perspectives, the CESR (Centre for Advanced Renaissance Studies, Tours) and the IRAMAT (Institute for Research on Archaeomaterials, Orleans) jointly propose to bring together diverse specialists (researchers in literature, the humanities, social science; professionals working in libraries and museums, as well as in the graphic arts and computing) for a two day study session programmed to take place at Orleans, on the 21st and 22nd May 2013.

 


The two study days are organised by Christine Bénévent (CESR), Rémi Jimenes (CESR) and Guillaume Sarah (IRAMAT) as part of the MSH Val-de-Loire 2012 Call for Projects.
