Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

In the last decade, the interdisciplinary formation known as Digital Humanities has renewed the methods, tools and techniques in literary studies. Analyses of digitized texts using computer-assisted tools and techniques promise to transform the kinds of evidence, the methods of interpretation, and the modes of argument that matter to literary scholarship. The aim of this course is to provide an introduction to the Digital Humanities tools, technologies and methodologies for Turkish Studies by way of a close reading of Orhan Pamuk’s Kara Kitap (The Black Book).
How does the ability to digital analyse, reassess hundreds of thousands of texts, related networks and spatial information give us new insights into the history, history of literature and culture? In order to address this question the course consists of 4 main goals: introduce the participants to a) the basic concepts and practices of Digital Humanities tools, technologies and methodologies, b) the major categories of digital analysis (text analysis, network analysis, spatial analysis); c) the related projects, databases of Turkish Studies; and d) allow the participants the opportunity to develop their own experimental projects.
