Measuring Polyphony: Digital Encodings of Late Medieval Music

"Measuring Polyphony" presents, for the first time, digitisations of polyphonic compositions copied in thirteenth- and fourteenth-century manuscripts in in mensural notation, and linked directly, where possible, to high-resolution images of the original manuscript sources, and MIDI audio files. The website offers new possibilities for mediating the scholarly and public experience of this richly evocative music within its original context. This project when the project director, Karen Desmond, was at the Schulich School of Music at McGill University, and now continues at Brandeis University. "Measuring Polyphony" leverages the potential of the rich digital image repositories of music manuscripts and the community-based standards for encoding music notation of the Music Encoding Initiative (MEI).

El corral del Príncipe: Reconstrucción 3D realizada en Los Sims 4

"Truan’s project primarily entails the development of a comprehensive 3D virtual and interactive model of the early modern Corral del Príncipe, situated in Madrid during what is known as the Spanish Golden Age (1492–1681) and renowned for hosting plays (comedias) by esteemed writers such as Félix Lope de Vega and Pedro Calderón de la Barca. In its architectural essence, the project mirrors the various endeavours of those who have used The Sims to reconstruct other theatres, such as Shakespeare’s Globe, a structure contemporary with many Spanish corrales.2 This connection to the Globe and Shakespeare, one of the most well-known early modern writers, coupled with the relative accessibility of the reconstruction provided by The Sims and YouTube, boosts the potential of Truan’s project to significantly enhance the visibility of the corrales and the broader cultural expression they represent."

Crossdressed Characters in Early Modern European Theatre

A database by Ana Valdemoros and David Amelang. The aim of this database is to highlight the many characters across early modern European theatre who, at some point in their stories, present themselves publicly and externally in attire that at the time would not have been associated with their gender. It is designed to be a resource for scholars and practitioners who wish to study the performance of gender transnationally in the early modern period. Much work has been done on some sections of literature from the period, and the database offers a starting point for queries made possible by expanded understandings of gender and sexuality.

Early Modern Songscapes: English Ayres and Their Dynamic Acoustic Environments

Use this resource to explore early modern English ayres—songs c. 1590–1660 featuring the clear expression of text. View editions featuring variant lyrics and musical notation; read scholarly essays about cultural context; and listen to audio recordings of historically informed performances. Our beta website features the songs of Henry Lawes’s 1653 Ayres and Dialogues, a previously unedited compilation of songs in the declamatory style, emphasizing the speech-like rhythms of verse. The next stage of the project will focus on the ayres of the Shakespearean stage.

English Broadside Ballad Archive

In May 2003, EBBA set its sights first on digitizing the largest extant collection of English broadside ballads published in the 17th century: the five volumes of ballads collected by Samuel Pepys held at Magdalene College, Cambridge. With seed monies and then more substantial funding, the full archiving of the Pepys Collection of over 1,800 ballads was completed. Our next undertaking, with continued funding, was to archive the second largest collection of English 17th century black-letter ballads: the four volumes (in five books) of Roxburghe Ballads held at the British Library, London, some 1,500 broadside ballads. In 2010, EBBA began archiving the Euing collection of 408 black-letter ballads held at the University of Glasgow as well as the approximately 600 early broadside ballads at the Huntington Library in Pasadena (including the many broadside ballads collected in the 17th century by Narcissus Luttrell and later bound in what is known as the Bindley collection; the invaluable Britwell collection of some 90 loose black-letter ballads of the 16th century; and many other bound and loose sheets not in named collections). Between 2012 and 2014, we fully archived the broadside ballad collections from the National Library of Scotland, Edinburgh, including the important Crawford Collection. We are currently archiving the more than 1,150 broadside ballads in the collections of Harvard University's Houghton Library.

Opening the Geesebook

A multisensory work of the past is explored through multimedia technologies of the present. A team of experts headed by Volker Schier and Corine Schleif opens the Geese Book to scholars and provides a window for broader audiences. Completed in 1510 for the parish of St. Lorenz in Nuremberg, this large-format gradual preserves the mass liturgy that was sung by choir boys until the Reformation was introduced in 1525. Provocative and satirical illuminations include the one from which the book takes its name. Many medieval manuscripts are too valuable and vulnerable to be handled. Digitally, however, these 2 volumes can now be touched by everyone.

Répertoire International des Sources Musicales

The Répertoire International des Sources Musicales (RISM) - International Inventory of Musical Sources - is an international, non-profit organization that aims to comprehensively document extant musical sources worldwide: manuscripts, printed music editions, writings on music theory, and libretti that are found in libraries, archives, churches, schools, and private collections. RISM Online, a service from the RISM Digital Center provides access to these musical sources through extensive search and browse functions. Multiple entry points, with extensive Source, Person, and Institution search interfaces, provide users with the ability to quickly narrow down relevant results using several different approaches, including keyword searches, filters, and relationship information.

Polish Digital Scores

"Polish Digital Scores is part of a larger project entitled Polish Music Heritage in Open Access run by the Fryderyk Chopin Institute, which seeks to provide access to “the most important and representative works of Polish music from the 16th to 19th centuries.”12 Between August 2019 and July 2022, the project generated high-resolution images of over 25,000 musical sources, making them available for download as JPEG, TIFF and PDF files. It also created or updated the records of nearly 34,000 Polish musical sources in the Répertoire International des Sources Musicales(RISM) database (rism.info).This represents a dramatic expansion and improvement of Polish representation in RISM, as almost one-third of the nearly 98,000 Polish records in the database have been added or edited by this project. Such a collaboration of digitization units and cataloguers would be impressive in any three-year span, but it is even more so considering the limited access that project workers had to musical sources during COVID-19 lockdowns."

The Making and Knowing Project

The Making and Knowing Project, founded in 2014 by Pamela H. Smith, and involving hundreds of collaborators, is a research and pedagogical initiative in the Center for Science and Society at Columbia University. The Project explores the intersections between historical craft making and scientific knowing. Drawing on techniques from both laboratory and archival research as well as studio practice and the digital humanities, the Making and Knowing Project aims to cross the science/humanities divide. The creation of Secrets of Craft and Nature in Renaissance France has been the Project’s primary endeavor since 2014. This goal has shaped the Project’s methodology of fusing pedagogy with research, using a focused research object (Ms. Fr. 640) to teach historical, hands-on, and digital research methods while generating research outputs.

Digital Dante

Digital Dante offers original research and ideas on Dante: on his thought and work and on various aspects of his reception. Though our editorial structure is that of an academic journal, we do not publish prose essays, instead showcasing work that intersperses prose with visual components. We accept contributions from scholars and Dante lovers around the world. We feature original scholarship on Dante in three different contexts: 1) The Commento Baroliniano is the first online commentary to the Divine Comedy. The Commento is an original work written expressly for Digital Dante and it distills a lifetime of scholarship. 2) Intertextual Dante is a vehicle for intertextual study of the Divine Comedy developed by Julie Van Peteghem and featuring her original scholarship on Dante and Ovid. 3) ImageSoundHistory and Text are the categories through which we present original pieces contributed by artists, philosophers, and scholars from around the world.

The King's Women 1594-1642

The King’s Women project explores the lives and socio-familial networks of the women who were connected to Shakespeare’s acting company. The mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters of members of the Lord Chamberlain’s, later the King’s, Men (1594-1642) have received scant scholarly attention, and frequently remain peripheral in the historical record. We draw on a variety of sources and employ collaborative methodology to reconstruct and better understand the women’s experiences and contributions. By scrutinising evidence found in wills, token books, parish registers, legal documentation, and miscellaneous other sources, we reconstruct previously overlooked aspects of the women's lives and deaths, encounter new information about them, and challenge some existing scholarly assumptions.

Weather Extremes in England's Little Ice Age

Explore the Weather Extremes historical weather database creation project, which uses English national chronicle records (Holinshed, Stow), local chronicles, letters, diaries, and pamphlets to document extreme weather and meteorological events (such as earthquakes and comets) between 1500-1700. These years were part of what is known as the Little Ice Age, a period of global cooling. Written accounts—both formal and informal—are crucial to documenting weather and climatic patterns prior to the development of weather recording technologies. We are also in the process of adding ordinary or "middling" weather records, to provide further context for reading weather patterns and anomalies.

Henslowe's Diary... as a Blog!

This site preserves a 5-year project to present in blog format the day-by-day records of an Elizabethan theatre. From 2016 to 2021, I posted the daily entries from Philip Henslowe's lists of performances at the Rose playhouse, as recorded in his so-called 'Diary', from 1592 to 1597. The project introduced readers to dozens of plays, some of which are still performed today, some of which have been forgotten, and some of which are lost.

Shakespedia

"Under the banner of the authoritative Droeshout portrait of 1623, Shakespediainvites users to “[l]earn more about the life and works of William Shakespeare.” As a site for the acquisition of knowledge about William Shakespeare, the portmanteau “Shakespedia”teases cleverly at a digital encyclopedia of facts related to an all-encompassing “Shakespeare”—a hybrid fusion of both the man and the body of his work: a one-stop shop for the history and heritage of Shakespeare’s life, locale, and canon. “Celebrating Shakespeare is at the heart of everything we do,” proclaims the main Shakespeare Birthplace Trust website (shakespeare.org.uk), which maintains this digital repository and resource and reminds the user that they are a charity, imploring their audience to help “keep Shakespeare’s story alive.”" (Reviewed by Valerie Clayman Pye)

Games and Culture

Games and Culture: A Journal of Interactive Media is an international journal that publishes innovative theoretical and empirical research about games and culture within interactive media. The journal serves as a premiere outlet for ground-breaking work in the field of game studies.

Games and Culture's scope includes the socio-cultural, political, and economic dimensions of gaming from a wide variety of perspectives, including textual analysis, political economy, cultural studies, ethnography, critical race studies, gender studies, media studies, public policy, international relations, and communication studies. Other arenas include the following:

  • Issues of gaming culture related to race, class, gender, and sexuality

  • Issues of game development

  • Textual and cultural analysis of games as artifacts

  • Issues of political economy and public policy in both US and international arenas

Of primary importance will be bridging the gap between games studies scholarship in the United States and in Europe.

One of the primary goals of the journal is to foster dialogue among the academic, design, development, and research communities that will influence both game design and research about games within various public contexts.  A second goal is to examine how gaming and interactive media are being used outside of entertainment, including in education, for the purposes of training, for military simulation, and for political action.

Games and Culture: A Journal of Interactive Media invites academics, designers and developers, and researchers interested in the growing field of game studies to submit articles, reviews, or special issues proposals to the editor.  Games and Culture is an interdisciplinary publication, and therefore it welcomes submissions by those working in fields such as Communication, Anthropology, Computer Science, English, Sociology, Media Studies, Cinema/Television Studies, Education, Art History, and Visual Arts.
