Summer Programme
Computational Humanities Research Group
King's College London


The programme for the summer 2023 seminars organised by the Computational
Humanities research group at the Department of Digital Humanities of King’s
College London (https://www.kcl.ac.uk/research/computational-humanities-
research-group) features four talks on Computational Humanities research. In
this seminar series we’re launching the idea of “reproduci-talks”: after the
presentation of the research, the talks will end with a walk-through of the
project’s code repository or (if relevant) a demo of the tool. See below for the
speakers, dates and titles and see our news page
(https://kingsdh.net/computational-humanities/) for abstracts and bios.

To receive the link to join the remote seminars, please email Barbara
McGillivray (barbara.mcgillivray@kcl.ac.uk) and to stay up to date with our 
activities, please sign up to our mailing list
