No. 9 (2022): Digital, global, transdisziplinär: Impulse für die Romanistik

Romance Studies takes on the effects of digitization and faces its own challenges (e.g., multilingual data), but also opportunities (e.g., through traditions of transdisciplinarity) in comparison to other subject areas. Although digital resources such as editions, corpora, or dictionaries have a long tradition in Romance Studies, an increasing number of digital methods open up new ways for research. Such methods not only enable additional intradisciplinary approaches for research in the sub-disciplines of Romance Studies, but also create transdisciplinary synergies between different fields of work. Based on contributions from various areas of research in the Romance Studies, this dossier illustrates how digital approaches can provide impulses for both intra- and transdisciplinary research. It includes three chapters: 1) Computational Literary Studies, 2) Metadata - Libraries - Infrastructures, 3) Computational Linguistics and Language Data.
