Freischütz Digital (FreiDi)

Freischütz Digital was a collaborative project funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) between 2012 and 2015 with partners from the Goethe University Frankfurt, the International Audio Laboratories of the University of Erlangen, the Musicology Seminar Detmold / Paderborn and the University of Paderborn. The goal was the exploration of current possibilities of genuinely digital music editions using the example of Carl Maria von Webers Freischütz. All the domains of the work (graphical, logical and acoustic / performative) were taken into account and all text and music parts with coding standards (TEI and MEI) were recorded for the first time. The aim of the project was not an edition in the traditional sense (which is presented analogously in the context of the Weber total edition) but the exemplary demonstration of new possibilities for the processing, enrichment and reuse of encoded data. In order to provide this data permanently for the community, an integration into the TextGrid repository or later in DARIAH-DE was planned right from the beginning, especially since it was foreseeable that the extraordinarily extensive data stock would have to be developed deeper and deeper. In the meantime, this is done by means of subsequent student follow-up projects or appropriate qualification work, so that the web presence realized with Edirom online can be viewed as work in progress and data can still be transferred to the DARIAH repository in the longer term.

Scholarly Journals of Knowledge in the Age of Enlightenment

Since 2011, the most important German-speaking representatives of interdisciplinary polyhistorical journals have been developed in the context of the project "Scholarly Journals and Newspapers as Networks of Knowledge in the Age of Enlightenment". Under the auspices of the Academy of Sciences of Göttingen, a database of 323 magazines (about 2,775 volumes and 1,260,000 pages) will be digitally researched. The period of development extends from 1688 to 1815, thus covering the entire range of scholarly journals and newspapers of the Enlightenment.
The data recordings cover a spectrum of different types of articles, the institutions and persons addressed by the news, through the short book display, to a detailed review of scientific publications on recent discoveries and research results. In this way, they provide information about the developments within the world of the learned and popularized knowledge of the eighteenth century. In addition to the own recordings, the database also contains the data records of two older projects whose data have been successfully adapted to the data schema. The integration of the data of other projects is designed to build a 'portal' of the eighteenth century journals.

 

Global research and imperial power

The DFG-funded project (since 2015) Globale Forschung und imperiale Macht: Das botanische Kommunikationsnetzwerk Nathaniel Wallichs compiles the biography of the Danish botanist Nathaniel Wallich and reconstructs its global communication network. The project team from the chair of Northern European History at the CAU Kiel analyses thousands of letters of his coorespondence and draws conclusions on the duration, geographic distribution and intensity of the relationships with the different communication partners. In addition, qualitative statements about the course of communication, individual career strategies and patronage structures, the relevance of religious and national identities in the multireligious and multinational North Indian environment, as well as the institutionalisation of research are possible. Applying the Geo-Browser from DARIAH-DE, the collected data are visualised and analysed with regard to their intensity and their global distribution.

Klaus Mollenhauer Gesamtausgabe (KMG)

Klaus Mollenhauer (1928-1998) is considered one of the most important and prominent German educational scientists of the 20th century. Recently, an international reception of his late work can be observed, while in Germany some of his writings can only be found through antiquarian book trade. This research gap will be filled by creating a text-critical and annotated edition of Klaus Mollenhauer's writings. The edition will be supplemented by parts of Mollenhauer's estate and be published in the online portal "Klaus Mollenhauer Gesamtausgabe – KMG". The editiorial work is provided by three working groups at the universities of Göttingen, Lüneburg and Osnabrück. Based on this Internet edition, a printed book version will subsequently be published.

 

Kommentierte digitale Edition der Reise- und Sammlungsbeschreibungen Philipp Hainhofers (1578-1647)

In this digital edition, the travel relations of the Augsburg merchant and agent Philipp Hainhofer (1578-1647) are for the first time presented completely in the form of digital facsimiles of the manuscripts and as full text, and provided with extensive critical apparatus and commentaries in text and image. The first project phase until 2020 comprises the descriptions of his five journeys to the Munich Court, which he made between 1603 and 1636. In a second phase, the journeys to Nuremberg, Regensburg, Neuburg, Heidelberg and Stuttgart will be published until 2023, followed by the journeys to Stettin, Innsbruck and Dresden. The final phase of the project will focus on the travel diary of the study and early adult years as well as a number of smaller spa stays. The long-term project funded by the DFG is scheduled for completion in 2029. In addition to the complete in-depth development of Hainhofer's travel relations, which has long been desired, the project also serves two other humanities-related key objectives. These are, on the one hand, a sharpening of the question of the function and significance of cultural mediation and translation in an inner-European area in times of heightened political and confessional conflict, and, on the other hand, an attempt at a renewed approach to interdisciplinarity in which different disciplines are integrated to the same extent.

Poznan Home of German Jews

The German-Polish cooperation project funded by the BKM investigates how tradition, cohesion, self-perception and interest in the "homeland of Poznan" developed among the German Jews who emigrated from the province of Poznan after the Polish state had reemerged. In particular, the project focuses on the "Poznan Heimatblätter" as a primary source. The georeferenced bibliography of the contributions is visualized in the DARIAH Geobrowser. The binational team also uses the DARIAH Wiki and Etherpad for contemporary collaborative collaboration across borders.

PROPYLÄEN

The PROPYLAEA open up Goethe's biographica. Diaries, correspondence and testimonies of Goethe's encounters and conversations are made accessible for the first time on a digital platform in addition to the traditional book editions. The project pursues two objectives: First, the continuation and completion of the historic-critical editions of Goethe's diaries (GT) and letters (GB), the regesta edition of the letters to Goethe (RA) and the publication of Goethe's encounters and conversations (BG). Secondly, the project wants to establish a digital research platform, in which all texts, comments and registers developed in the editions are brought together and linked together. The platform will be freely accessible. In addition to the contents of the printed editions, the platform will contain the facsimiles of all handwritings on Goethe's Biographica, as well as the complete transcriptions of the letters to Goethe. In this way, users are given the opportunity to search the sources together with their comments in a differentiated way and to structure the results according to their own needs. The information architecture of the platform is openly designed so that autobiographical texts of Goethe and other digital resources, source and reference works can be integrated.

Relations in space

Relations in space analyses and visualises spatial relations between tombs of Jewish cemeteries from nine centuries (11th-20th centuries). On the basis of concrete research questions and in an exchange between the participating cultural scientists and computer scientists, a "topography visualizer" will be developed that will enable the analysis of a wide variety of cemetery ensembles.

 

Religious peacekeeping and peace building

For the first time, the source edition provides a textual basis for comparative research into the foundations of pre-modern peace building in religious matters throughout Europe. The edition will cover the period from the first Kappeler Land Peace of 1529 to the so-called Woellner Religious Edict of 1788. In the approximately 50 religious peace treaties, strategies and mechanisms were developed to achieve a cooperative balance or at least a coexistence of the emerging denominations after the break-up of religious unity in the wake of the Reformation and numerous religious wars. With the digital source edition, texts are made accessible in their first published form (first prints), which makes it possible in the first place to analyze the diversity and idiosyncrasies of early modern religious peace in an interdisciplinary manner. On this basis, political, legal and theological negotiation premises and argumentation patterns, the experiences of the parties to the conflict and the solutions developed for peaceful coexistence can be identified in their context and interdependence.

The Saxon-Magdeburg law as cultural link between the legislations of East and Central Europe

The "Sachsenspiegel" of Eike of Repgow (ca. 1225) and the known municipal law of Magdeburg, apart from Roman and canon law, form the common foundation of Central and Eastern European legislations. The research project of the Saxon Academy of Sciences Leipzig took up its work in line with the accession of several Eastern European countries to the European Union in 2004. It is devoted to the spreading of the Sachsenspiegel and the Magdeburger Stadtrecht (municipal law) in Eastern Central Europe (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Hungary, Belarus). The reception of Saxon-Magdeburg law in Eastern Central Europe is presented in handbook-like publications and examined both in terms of language and language. In addition to its scientific orientation, the project is intended to highlight the shared cultural-historical heritage in a modern Europe. The so far only printed work results are to be processed for digital use, but also investigations on late medieval and early modern legal texts with the methods of parallel and diachronic corpus linguistics are to be carried out and presented in the work environment. The project's bibliography (www.magdeburger-recht.org/smr) is available online.

 

SaDA

The goal of the project "SaDA - Semi-automatic Difference Analysis of Complex Text Variants" was the elaboration of sub-processes of philological work for the filiation of transmission variants of a text and for the reconstruction of the text genesis with the existence of a multitude of variants, which can be supported by information technology methods and tools.

 

SlaVaComp

Based on the example of the Greek-church-linguistic translations and church-linguistic original texts in Eastern and South-Eastern Europe, exemplary diachronic and regional differentiations of the language Kirchenslavisch (church slavonic) were investigated. The project used analysis tools (church slavonic tools in TextGrid). Also an index and a bilingual online dictionary for the study of graphical and lexical variability of church slavonic in its temporal and spatial development were prepared.

 

TEACaN

Tracing Early American Captivity Narratives (TEACaN) is an interdisciplinary project at the interface of literary and cultural sciences, computer linguistics and geoinformatics. Subject of the research project is the captivity narrative, often understood as one founding genre of American literary and cultural history, and its role for the imagined communities in North America. Starting point are reports of prisoners of different "contact zones" of the western hemisphere, connecting the European metropolises with Asia and Africa as well as North and South America. Based on the results of the relevant "analogous" research, TEACaN expanded the field of transnational captivity studies by a computer-assisted analysis of about 400 captive counts between 1500 and 1900. Aim of the project is to demonstrate topological and topographical demarcations and connections and thus to capture the multidimensional relationships of the captivity narratives among themselves as well as their geographical spread. GIS-supported software, web-based reading and text analysis environments as well as computer-linguistic procedures for the determination of structures of action are intended to a.) Transnational literary-historical developments, b.) Questions of the author in relation to the power of the narrative subjects and c.) The specific "Grammar," the event and motivational structure of Captivity Narratives in transhistoric and transnational perspective. In addition to intertextual connections, the focus is on paratextual relationships, which in turn reveal the constitutive significance of the captivity narrative for the literature market of early America.

Textdatenbank und Wörterbuch des Klassischen Maya

The long-term project "Text Database and Dictionary of the Classic Maya" of the Academy of Sciences and Arts in North Rhine-Westphalia is located at the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn. The aims of the project are twofold: on the one hand the exploration of the hieroglyphs of pre-Spanish Mayan culture (500 BC to 1500 AD), on the other hand the preparation of a dictionary as well as a corpus-based database of classic maya.

 

TextGrid Implementation of SharedCanvas

The SharedCanvas data model has been developed by the Stanford University Library, Los Alamos National Library, and the OpenAnnotation Collaboration (with the support of the Mellon Foundation). The SharedCanvas partner libraries consist among others of the British Library, the Bibliothèque Nationale de France and the Johns Hopkins Library in the USA. The TextGrid repository has been made compatible with SharedCanvas tools. This allows SharedCanvas users to access content from the TextGrid repository in order to work with it. The tools developed by SharedCanvas have been integrated into TextGrid. The implementation extended the user community of TextGrid by making repository content available to SharedCanvas users and partner institutions while providing TextGrid users with access to SharedCanvas compatible content from other institutions.

Universal-Kirchenzeitung

For the development, analysis and digital edition of the "Universal Church Newspaper for the Clergy and the Educated World Class of Protestant, Catholic and Israelite Germany" as a subproject of the "German-Jewish Journalism of the 19th Century" (Steinheim Institute / DISS), various DARIAH-DE tools such as Geobrowser and Digivoy were used.

 

Networked correspondences

The "Networked Correspondences - Research and visualization of social, spatial, temporal, and thematic networks in correspondence" centered around the correspondences of German-speaking writers who had been exiled under the national socialists. By employing DH methods, the letters should be crosslinked, indexed and intelligently tagged to ultimately visualizs entire correspondences and theme networks.

Virtual Skriptorium St. Matthias

The digitisation and virtual reconstruction of the St. Matthias manuscripts of Trier's Benedictine Abbey makes an important medieval fundus online accessible. The virtual reconstruction addresses more than 500 codices ("Kodizes") spread over 25 locations worldwide. In addition to the digitisation the content is linked to existing catalog descriptions via a database. By storing the data at the University of Trier as well as in the TextGrid repository, long-term preservation and decentralised storage via iRods is guaranteed. The corpus of the data from various manuscript catalogs has led to the digitalisation of the data. The images are to be developed both by means of tools, such as TextGrid, by people, both editorial and interpretative as well as in the project "eCodicology" with the help of the computer.

Scientific Communication Infrastructure

Within the framework of the DFG-funded research project "Scientific Communication Infrastructure", a virtual research environment was developed at the GNM in cooperation with the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg and the research museum Alexander Koenig, Bonn (ZFMK). The main aspect of data collection and preservation in WissKI are the semantic connections through comprehensive support of current Semantic Web technologies. The classification and storage of the collected data is based on the ISO standard 21127. On the basis of this technology, solitary data are combined into a semantic network in order to allow the direct visibility of deeper connections. The web-based system design allows access via the Internet, the connection of externally curated data sources (so-called authority files) and the provision of selected data via common online interfaces.
