Datum: 26. September 2025Zeit: 14:00 – 15:30
The keynote is part of the “Digital Humanities Summer School 2025: Data, gender and society”.
Title of Session: Corpus compilation and gender-sensitive Analysis
A solid corpus is of fundamental importance for computational literary studies. When analysing rare and unusual phenomena or minority representation the compilation of a meaningful corpus is even more crucial. In this workshop participants will learn the most central aspects of corpus creation and work on different case studies hands on. The workshops especially highlights two perspectives of corpus creation: the authorial perspective and the perspective of (gender-sensitive) phenomena. Accordingly authorial gender of male, female and queer authors will be analysed as well as unusual gender depictions in literary texts using state-of-the-art machine learning techniques.
Keynote Speaker: Mareike Schumacher, University of Regensburg
