Subject: Computer-related sessions at the 2002 MLA Convention
Some Humanist readers may be attending this year's Modern Language
Association convention in New York City at the end of the month.
There are a number of talks on humanities computing and related
subjects at the MLA, and to help those interested in finding them, the
Association for Computers and the Humanities has compiled a guide to
these talks, based on the convention program. It is available at:
http://www.ach.org/mla02/guide.html
As always, the list has some interest even if you're not attending:
comparing this list with those from past years is a good way to get an
idea of changing trends, both in computing and in the field of
literary studies in general. One can see a slight downward trend in
sheer numbers compared to the last year or two, but I suspect one
reason is that talks involving computing in some way trumpet this less
obviously than they once did; in compiling this list I'm mostly just
going on the titles of talks, because there is usually no other
information available about them.
Special offer for Humanist readers: if you want a link from your talk
to your home page, or if your talk is not there but should have been,
just ask me and these lapses will be magically corrected!
