Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This course will include teaching on a range of topics related to collecting and storing historical person data (prosopography) and analysing it through social network analysis (SNA) methods. This will include both theoretical and practical elements, including discussions of how person data can be produced from a range of source types, different models for storing person data and their implications for historians, how social network graphs are produced from such data, and what conclusions and insights historians can draw from these data sources. The course will particularly tend to focus on medieval material, though the methods used are widely applicable across historical fields.

Assessment and permitted materials

The assessment will be based on a mix of continuously assessed class participation/contributions, and a final coursework assessment piece.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The class will be fully taught in and assessed in English, and the ability to write clearly in English is a requirement. Previous courses in medieval history or digital humanities are not required (though may of course make grounding in some of the material easier).

Examination topics

There is no written examination: the final assessment piece will be discussed with students and produced on a topic of their choice relevant to the themes and methods covered in classes.
