ALLC/ACH-2004, 2nd Call for Papers.
Computing and Multilingual, Multicultural Heritage
16th Joint Annual Conference of ALLC and ACH
June 11-16, 2004, Göteborg (Gothenburg), Sweden
The conference website can be visited at: http://www.hum.gu.se/allcach2004/
The 2004 conference has two aims. First, we invite papers and contributions
in all areas related to humanities computing and the application of
advanced information technologies in humanities subjects, including
linguistics, literature, cultural and historical studies, translation
studies, media studies and digital collections. Papers on research and on
teaching are both of interest. Papers may report on new theoretical and
methodological advances in any relevant field. Second, within this context,
the conference is expected to address the increased challenges of
multilingualism, an issue manifested by the further enlargement of Europe
and the process of integration of nations world wide. We thus also
encourage papers related to the linguistic and cultural issues of
multilingual communities.
It is clear that specialists in humanities computing can help achieve these
aims through individual scientific and educational tasks and joint
projects, as well as by making available their research base through
educational and electronic library resources. We believe that responding to
these new challenges will also have a fertilizing effect on humanities
computing as a whole by opening up new ways and methodologies to enhance
the use of computers and computation in a wide range of humanities disciplines.
We welcome presentations in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and
Swedish.
Further information on the research and educational activities as well as
on past conferences of the two associations can be found at www.allc.org
(ALLC) and www.ach.org (ACH). For an overview of the range of topics
covered by humanities computing please refer to the journals of the
Associations, Literary and Linguistic Computing (www.oup.co.uk) and
Computers and the Humanities (www.kluweronline.com).
