Subject: GSA Seminar CfP: Integrating Digital Humanities and German Studies (Deadline: February 23, 2024)

Title: Integrating Digital Humanities and German Studies – Methods, Theory,
Practice (sponsored by the GSA Digital Humanities Network)
Conveners:
Fabian Offert, University of California, Santa Barbara, offert@ucsb.edu
Thorsten Ries, UT Austin, thorsten.ries@austin.utexas.edu
Abstract: While the humanities have always incorporated empirical and
formal approaches, the debate around Nan Z. Da's "The Computational Case
[...]" revealed that digital methods can be at odds with the paradigms
of established humanities scholarship. Current AI-driven methods like
ChatGPT in particular raise questions about how arguments could be made
"digitally" that align with traditional humanities scholarship enough to
be convincing (e.g. in terms of reproducibility and explainability).
This seminar thus aims to delineate the state of the art in "digital"
German Studies and facilitate a discussion of the epistemic consequences
of digital methods for the discipline: How are digital methods relevant
for German Studies, and what are angles of humanist inquiry into digital
methods and culture? How could we conceptualize a digital methodology
that is productively integrated with established humanities scholarship?
What are the political and disciplinary stakes of this integration? And
how can faculty and instructors integrate GPT4 in their teaching?
Format: The seminar will consist of a series of short presentations,
case studies, discussions of research in DH / AI, and practical DH
experiments (e.g. workshops). Topic abstracts due April 6, presentation
slides, materials a week before conference. A seminar reader (ca 100 pp)
will be distributed three weeks before the conference.
Application deadline: February 23, 2024 (23:59 PST)
Applications through: Openwater Portal
(https://thegsa.secure-platform.com/48/ , GSA membership required to
apply).
