Department of Digital Humanities, University of Cologne Hosted by DH-Cologne www.dhhumanist.org Submit to: humanist@dhhumanist.org Date: 2022-12-01 08:11:40+00:00 From: Frédéric CLAVERT <frederic.clavert@uni.lu> Subject: Digital Humanities and memory studies: PhD position The Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) is looking for doctoral candidates (PhD student) to work within the framework of the Doctoral Training Unit “Deep Data Science of Digital History” (D4H). This interdisciplinary DTU focuses on multiple challenges at the intersection between the disciplines of history and data science. The DTU will train a new generation of digitally literate PhD students to deal with “big data of the past” in a critical and competent way, combining the epistemic tradition of close reading with machine-based methods of distant reading (“scalable reading”). It aims to develop a shared understanding of the human/machine nexus in collecting, curating, managing, analysing, interpreting, and visualizing historical data and to problematize the multi-layered temporalities of datasets and experiment with new forms and formats of historical models and simulations in a longue-durée / deep time perspective. For this DTU, I am personnally looking for a doctoral candidate who would be interested in using digital humanities and digital history methods in the field of memory studies. Potential applicants should carefully read the extended research proposal of the DTU ([https://dhh.uni.lu/d4h](https://dhh.uni.lu/d4h)) and contact me (frederic.clavert@uni.lu) to discuss **their** idea of a PhD project before submiting their candidature to https://recruitment.uni.lu/en/deta ils.html?nPostingID=75356&nPostingTargetID=110639. Please, do not hesitate to circulate this annoucement.
