Open-source historical mapping on Humanities Commons 9 years, 1 month agoCoordinates: Digital Mapping and 18th C Visual, Material, and Built Cultures
Art history’s digital turn has been stimulated by the possibilities of spatial research. Spurred by the collection, preservation, and distribution of art historical data in digital space—practices that have both collapsed and expanded our own discursive geog…[Read more] -

Feedback and Feature Requests on Humanities Commons 9 years, 1 month agoHi there,
Unfortunately some of what you’re asking for here would require Academia.edu to have an API that we could interface with, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
We’ll look into the various options for importing contacts from social media sites, but again that is probably going to require those sites to be open to us interacting with…[Read more]

This course will introduce you to the new humanist field of oceanic studies, which foregrounds the history of ocean travel and epistemologies over the humanities’ implicit yet traditional and ingrained focus on the nation-state. You will be introduced to these theories by reading literature and viewing films related to one particular topic w…[Read more]

By the end of this course, you will have encountered Sherlock in just about as many media and textual forms as the great detective has disguises: novels, short stories, illustrated serials in The Strand, plays, poems, essays, parodies, TV episodes, silent films, Hollywood films, comic books, and fan fiction. Each unit will require you to complete…[Read more]

Nicky Agate started the topic Welcome to the general archaeology group! in the discussion
Archaeology on Humanities Commons 9 years, 2 months agoThis group is a discussion forum for archaeologists on Humanities Commons.

Shawna Ross deposited “You cannot go further in life than this sentence by James": Deleuze, Guattari, James. on Humanities Commons 9 years, 2 months ago
Twenty-first century scholarship on Henry James presents an author in line with Deleuze’s characterization of the writer in Dialogues II: that a writer should create “a flux which combines with other fluxes – all the minority-becomings of the world… through which life escapes from the resentment of persons, societies, and reigns,” but what I wou…[Read more]

Shawna Ross deposited Agatha Christie's Impossible Vacation on Humanities Commons 9 years, 2 months ago
To explore why many of Christie’s crimes occur in leisure spaces (from golf courses and hunting lodges to palace hotels, seaside resorts, and cruise ships), I want to focus on a few of Christie’s interwar Poirot novels, namely, The Murder on the Links (1923), Peril at End House (1932), Murder on the Orient Express (1934), and Death on the Nile (19…[Read more]

Shawna Ross deposited The (Meme) Master: Henry James's Digital Afterlives on Humanities Commons 9 years, 2 months ago
This article investigates Henry James’s digital afterlives by analyzing popular James-themed images and articles that have been shared on the Internet since 2000. Adapting Richard Dawkins’s theory of virality and Michael Anesko’s concept of James’s cultural capital, this article engages with viral content published on websites such as Bustle,…[Read more]

Shawna Ross deposited Remembering William Carlos Williams’s "The Use of Force": Anti-Vaxxers, Medical Ethics, and Short Story Syllabi. on Humanities Commons 9 years, 2 months ago
I argue that Williams’s doctor stories must be remembered on our syllabi due to contemporary discursive trends in medical ethics. Treating “The Use of Force” as a case study, I create parallels between its representation of resistance to diphtheria anti-toxin and the rhetoric of “anti-vaxxers” like Jenny McCarthy, Andrew Wakefield, Michelle…[Read more]

Statistics! How do early adopters see if their efforts are generating views and DLs. Academia.edu has an analytics package which identified people who bookmarj, DL, follow etc. I’m not an acaemic, and am not driven by the need for impact statistics for aceamic progress, but I am interested in assessing Humanities Commons as a platform vs,…[Read more]
