The nomination period opens on 1 May 2025 and closes on 28 May 2025. The Elections will be held from 5 June 2025 to 2 July 2025. Elected EADH Executive Committee Members will be announced when the election period ends, and formally inducted in July 2025 during the General Meeting of EADH Members at the ADHO (DH) Conference in Lisboa, Portugal. More information about the conference can be found here: https://dh2025.adho.org/ What does an EADH Executive Committee Member do? Members of the Executive Committee regularly support EADH by acting in a number of roles, including by serving on the ADHO Constituent Organization Board and the yearly Programme Committee for the ADHO conference, by lobbying the European Commission for more funding through representation in the European Alliance of Social Science and Humanities (EASSH) organization, etc. We also have members who take on the responsibility for distributing bursaries and other funded awards to members of our community. Any member who wants to take action on their own initiative relevant to their interests and the goal of EADH is welcome to propose new lines of action. The work of EADH is supported by infrastructure run and maintained by the EADH exec, and is informed by a series of close relationships with our Associate Organizations (AIUCD [Associazone Informatica Umanistica e Cultura Digitale], CzADH [Czech Association for Digital Humanities], DHd [Association for Digital Humanities in the German Speaking Countries], and DHNB [Digital Humanities in the Nordic and Baltic Countries]). Executive Committee Members shape and execute this work on behalf of the organization. What is the time commitment for this position? We expect EADH Executive Committee Members to take an active part in our organization by serving in a variety of specific roles, which can include (but are not limited to) our Small Grants Committee, Outreach Committee, Infrastructure Committee, Governance Committee, and Elections Committee. These committees are cyclical, meaning that at certain times they become more active and at other times of the year they can be dormant. Normally, the Executive Committee holds monthly online all-hands 1.5 hour meetings to update each other on progress within specific committees, and we also have designated, smaller group meetings to work within these committees when they are active. At times of the year when we are planning workshops, seminars and conferences, Executive Committee members from relevant subcommittees can spend ca. 5 hours per week working communally on EADH business. Executive Committee members also have a Mid Term meeting once per year which is typically a one to two day in-person event, and we also organize an in-person General Meeting each summer at the ADHO Conference that lasts ca. 1.5 hours. The attendance of all Executive Committee Members at the Midterm Meeting is funded by EADH, and the attendance of the Officers (Chair, Treasurer, Secretary, etc.) at the ADHO General Meeting is funded by EADH.

Conference "Hermeneutica in Practice: Honoring the Work and Legacy of Stéfan Sinclair" (10-12/9/25 @ Montreal)
by Michael Eberle Sinatra 28 Apr '25

28 Apr '25

[apologies for cross-posting] The Centre de recherche interuniversitaire sur les humanités numériques (CRIHN<http://crihn.org/>) is very proud to announce a call for papers for: "Hermeneutica in Practice: Honoring the Work and Legacy of Stéfan Sinclair – A Conference on Text Analysis, Tool Building, and Critical Digital Humanities" Université de Montréal, September 10th-12th 2025 Plenary spearkers: Servanne Monjour (Sorbonne Université) and Lauren Tilton (Richmond University) We welcome submissions of papers, panels, and tool demonstrations for a bilingual conference dedicated to examining and building on the scholarly contributions of Stéfan Sinclair (1972–2020), a leading figure in the field of digital humanities in Canada and internationally. Stéfan Sinclair’s innovative work in text analysis, digital tool development, and critical infrastructure design played a foundational role in shaping methodologies and pedagogical approaches that continue to influence scholars across disciplines. This conference will provide a forum for academic exchange and critical reflection on the legacy of Sinclair’s work, while fostering new directions in the theory and practice of digital humanities in alignment with the collaborative and interdisciplinary ethos that characterized his career. Conference Themes: This event explores the rich intersections of text analysis, critical infrastructure, interpretive tools, and collaborative scholarship that defined Sinclair’s career. We welcome proposals that engage with his legacy in theory and practice, including but not limited to: - Text Analysis as Interpretation: Inspired by Hermeneutica and Voyant, how can we reconceive text analysis as a form of critical reading? What new directions are emerging in computational literary studies? - Tool Building and Humanities Infrastructure: Sinclair’s work embodied a commitment to building accessible, user-focused tools. What role does tool development play in shaping scholarly practice? How do we sustain and reflect on our infrastructures? - Interface and Visualization Design for the Humanities: How do we make meaning through interface? How do visualizations support and challenge interpretive acts in cultural heritage and literary studies? - Collaborative Praxis: Sinclair’s method was always collaborative—technically, intellectually, and pedagogically. We invite contributions that reflect on or exemplify this mode of working: co-authorship, co-building, co-teaching. - Pedagogy and Programming for Humanists: From « The Art of Literary Text Analysis » to his CFI-funded lab « SHAVLAB », Sinclair reimagined how humanists could learn, teach, and play with code. What are the most compelling approaches to teaching digital methods today? - Digital Humanities and Sustainability: How does the perennity of Voyant speak to issues of sustainability in the field more generally, including environmental challenges, and scholarly stewardship? - History and Future of Digital Humanities: How do we situate Sinclair’s contributions within the broader development of DH as a field? What are the paths forward? We especially encourage proposals that directly engage with or build upon tools and projects Sinclair helped bring to life, including Voyant, HyperPo, TAPoR, CWRC, and LINCS, and others. Presentation Formats: - 20-minute papers - Posters - Hands-on tool demonstrations Submission Details: - Please submit a 500-word abstract along with a short bio (100 words) as a PDF to crihunum(a)gmail.com with the subject “Sinclair Conference” by 15 June 2025.

Any member who wants to take action on their own initiative relevant to their interests and the goal of EADH is welcome to propose new lines of action. The work of EADH is supported by infrastructure run and maintained by the EADH exec, and is informed by a series of close relationships with our Associate Organizations (AIUCD [Associazone Informatica Umanistica e Cultura Digitale], CzADH [Czech Association for Digital Humanities], DHd [Association for Digital Humanities in the German Speaking Countries], and DHNB [Digital Humanities in the Nordic and Baltic Countries]). Executive Committee Members shape and execute this work on behalf of the organization. What is the time commitment for this position? We expect EADH Executive Committee Members to take an active part in our organization by serving in a variety of specific roles, which can include (but are not limited to) our Small Grants Committee, Outreach Committee, Infrastructure Committee, Governance Committee, and Elections Committee. These committees are cyclical, meaning that at certain times they become more active and at other times of the year they can be dormant. Normally, the Executive Committee holds monthly online all-hands 1.5 hour meetings to update each other on progress within specific committees, and we also have designated, smaller group meetings to work within these committees when they are active. At times of the year when we are planning workshops, seminars and conferences, Executive Committee members from relevant subcommittees can spend ca. 5 hours per week working communally on EADH business. Executive Committee members also have a Mid Term meeting once per year which is typically a one to two day in-person event, and we also organize an in-person General Meeting each summer at the ADHO Conference that lasts ca. 1.5 hours. The attendance of all Executive Committee Members at the Midterm Meeting is funded by EADH, and the attendance of the Officers (Chair, Treasurer, Secretary, etc.) at the ADHO General Meeting is funded by EADH. Where attendance in person is not possible, the meetings can be run in a hybrid format. Who is eligible to be an EADH Executive Committee Member? EADH members and members of Associated Organizations of EADH are eligible to become members of the EADH Executive Committee. This means that those wishing to take part in the elections as voters or candidates must be Members in Good Standing (i.e. have paid their membership fees) by 25 April 2025, whether as a direct or joint member of EADH, or through one of its Associate Organizations. You can join EADH or renew your membership here: https://academic.oup.com/dsh/subscribe?login=false. What are we looking for in an EADH Executive Committee Member? We welcome candidates working at every level of professional and educational development and every area in which aspects of DH are practiced, including archives, galleries, libraries, museums, universities, independent scholars, and any other public or private organizations invested in promoting DH activities across Europe. More important than a particular academic or professional degree is a candidate’s willingness to work actively and communicate openly with and for our community. How do nominations work? Potential candidates can self-nominate with the support of two current members of EADH.* These members (the proposers) must EACH submit a statement with the name of the person they wish to nominate (the nominee). The names of the proposers and their statements will not be made public. The nominee must also submit a statement of no more than 200 words (excluding links) expressing their willingness to stand for election. Submit this statement along with the names of your two supporting members and their statements to the Chair of the Elections Committee, Ulrike Wuttke ( elections(a)eadh.org) The statements from the proposers and the nominee must be submitted to the Chair of the Elections Committee no later than 28 May 2025. *If you wish to stand for EADH elections in 2025 but do not know two other members of EADH, please be in touch and we can help you to find two supporting members.
