        Subject: Call for Papers "Representing the Ancient World through Data"

Dear list members,

The Journal of Open Humanities Data (https://openhumanitiesdata.metajnl.com/) is
launching a new special collection entitled “Representing the Ancient World
through Data”.

For this special collection we mainly invite submissions of short data papers
describing different types of datasets/databases (textual and literary corpora,
digital editions, historical gazetteers, epigraphic/archeological/papyrological
collections, collections of historical artefacts and records) and computational
tools focused on the study of the ancient world (both newly developed tools and
new applications of pre-existing tools). We encourage submissions that promote a
view of the ancient world expansive in its geographic, chronological,
linguistic, and cultural reach.


Submission deadline: 1st September 2023

The full Call for Papers is available at
https://openhumanitiesdata.metajnl.com/collections/representing-the-ancient-
world

If you are interested in submitting an article, please express your interest to:
Paola Marongiu (paola.marongiu@unine.ch,
Patrick J. Burns (pjb311@nyu.edu, 
Andrea Farina (andrea.farina@kcl.ac.uk), 
Martina Astrid Rodda (martinaastrid.rodda@classics.ox.ac.uk).

Best regards,

Paola Marongiu, Patrick J. Burns, Andrea Farina, Martina Astrid Rodda

[Da: Susan Hunston via Corpora] 

Dear colleagues,

I am delighted to announce that ‘Collocations, Corpora and Language
Learning’, by Paweł Szudarski, has just been published in the Cambridge
Elements in Corpus Linguistics Series. This publication is FREE to download
for two weeks. It can be accessed here:

https://www.cambridge.org/core/search?q=9781108994798

Here is the abstract of the publication:

This Element provides a systematic overview and synthesis of corpus-based
research into collocations focusing on the learning and use of collocations
by second language (L2) users. Underlining the importance of collocation as
a key notion within the field of corpus linguistics, the text offers a
state-of-the-art account of the main findings related to the applications
of corpora and corpus-based measures for defining, identifying and
analysing collocations as related to second language acquisition.
Emphasising the quality of L2 collocation research, the Element illustrates
key methodological issues to be considered when conducting this type of
corpus analysis. It also discusses examples of pertinent research questions
and points to representative studies treated as models of good practice.
Aiming at researchers both new and experienced, the Element also points to
avenues for future work and shows the relevance of corpus-based analysis
for improving the process of learning and teaching of L2 collocations.
