Apologies for cross-posting. Please share widely. Applications are now open for the third of the CLS INFRA academic Training School events, “ExploreCor: Using Programmable Corpora in Computational Literary Studies. It is set to take place in Vienna June 10-12 2024, spanning three intensive days. This program covers some of the most important steps in the research cycle of Computational Literary Studies, focusing on "Programmable Corpora" – dynamic collections of literary texts manipulated programmatically. Participants will delve into finding, evaluating, and selecting corpora using tools like the CLSCor metadata catalogue and DraCor. The curriculum features: * learning how to use Python and Jupyter Notebooks for analysis, * querying and retrieving data via APIs, * working with Linked Open Data, * learning how to conduct Digital Literary Network Analysis, * an introduction to Docker for research encapsulation (addressing the Reproducibility Crisis) Attendees gain practical skills to conduct transparent and replicable research, contributing to the advancement of Computational Literary Studies. Participation is free, with lunch and accommodation included. Applications close 15 February, so apply here now: https://pretix.eu/CLSINFRA-trainingschool2024/application/ For more information on the Training Schools and CLS INFRA, visit https://clsinfra.io/events/training-school/. Questions? Contact Coordinator Anna Dijkstra (anna.dijkstra@huygens.knaw.nlmailto:anna.dijkstra@huygens.knaw.nl). Directly after the CLS Infra Training School the 3nd Annual Conference of Computational Literary Studies (CCLS2024https://jcls.io/site/conference/) will take place from June 13-14, 2024, in Vienna. This is a wonderful opportunity for participants to take part in a conference dedicated to topics in the field of CLS. The CCLS is the annual conference of the Journal of Computational Literary Studies (JCLS), an international, open access, peer-reviewed online journal dedicated to all aspects of computational approaches to Literary Studies. JCLS responds to the increasing differentiation of subfields within the Digital Humanities, an ongoing process in which Computational Literary Studies has already gained considerable maturity and visibility. Please check the Call for Papershttps://jcls.io/site/cfp/ as well as the conference websitehttps://jcls.io/site/conference/ for further information. Attendance and accommodation at the conference are not included in successful applications to the Training School. All the best, Sarah (I read and respond to emails during work hours.)
