Wayne title: Petrarch’s “Original” of the Fragmenta 1362-1558: from Boccaccio to Rovillio’s third printing date: 2011 words: 10245 flesch: 63 summary: But his reliance on probability, conjecture, an indirect knowledge of the material tradition, and what we might call a cultural inclination to impose artificial scientific systems, such as his creation of three categories of intervals between the periods of work Petrarch devoted to the assembly of Vaticano Latino 3195, render his results in some cases unreliable. Thus by the second half of the fifteenth century, both in manuscript and in print we have two models for constructing a book of vernacular Petrarch: 1) the text with sparse or no apparatus that boasted its authenticity and connection to the poet, from Valdezoco’s 1472 Paduan edition to the Aldine editions of 1501 and 1514; and 2) editions which offered the user an ever greater interpretative apparatus, from the Bolognese Filelfo commentary tradition of the late fifteenth century to the heavily annotated apparatuses of Vellutello in 1525 and Guglielmo Rovillo’s Lyonese editions of the 1550s. keywords: age; century; codex; copy; copyist; del; edition; fragmenta; francesco; holograph; humanist; latino; manuscript; original; petrarch; poems; poet; print; storey; studies; vaticano; wayne cache: hsda-5695.pdf plain text: hsda-5695.txt item: #2 of 46 id: hsda-5698 author: Martinez, Ronald L. title: Francis, Thou Art Translated: Petrarch Metamorphosed in English, 1380-1595 date: 2011 words: 15899 flesch: 66 summary: Just as the first poem in Egerton takes up the topic of the injustice of love, which transfixes the speaker but leaves the lady untouched— an imbalance Petrarch first records in Rvf 2.13-14—the first sonnet in Wyatt’s manuscript nods to a fundamental impulse driving Petrarch’s poetic collection.

The fifty-four of the seventy-five glossators (some of whom did not finish their commentaries while others may have ducked this difficult passage) collected in the Dartmouth Dante Project (of the perhaps two hundred commentaries that exist, some completed, others abandoned, in the annals of Dante scholarship) do not, among themselves, guarantee that the Dantist who consults them will come away no more confused than when entering the selva oscura of this difficult poem. keywords: dante; ddp; hollander; notes; pdp; poem; princeton; project cache: hsda-5727.pdf plain text: hsda-5727.txt item: #13 of 46 id: hsda-5728 author: Bori, Pier Cesare title: Premessa all’edizione cinese del Discorso sulla dignità umana di Pico della Mirandola date: 2013 words: 3734 flesch: 61 summary: Si può pensare che risalga a questo periodo la prima, parziale redazione (testimoniata dal Codice palatino 885), del Discorso e che risalga anche, insieme a questo, il disegno di un convegno a Roma.

In her recent book Baron admits the advantages of eReading (search the text, promotion of extensive reading, democratization of the access to the written word) but emphasizes the drawbacks: in her view eReading and digital reading in general are more apt for short pieces or for light content, and not appropriate for longer more serious works that require rereading and analyzing; moreover, she argues that reading onscreen modifies the nature of reading by transforming it from and individual encounter with a text and an author into a social experience as it happens for example in online reading groups like Goodreads or the Reading Group Center created by Facebook (Words Onscreen xii-xv; 208 ff.). keywords: age; attention; book; century; change; culture; data; digital; example; history; humanist; lollini; new; page; print; printing; reader; reading; revolution; source; studies; texts; time; use; vico; web; writing cache: hsda-5730.pdf plain text: hsda-5730.txt item: #16 of 46 id: hsda-5731 author: Riva, Massimo title: Change of Paradigm: From Individual to Community-Based Scholarship date: 2015 words: 1398 flesch: 38 summary: The scholarly work is being increasingly made over into a collective, collaborative, large-scale enterprise characterized by the move from discursive to graphic-algorithmic forms of data presentation and interpretation. This change of scale is even more daunting when we move from textual phenomena to visualization in general: according to the International Data Corporation (IDC) already by 2010 we produced approximately 500 billion digital images through approximately a billion devices, and this number does not include video data generated by surveillance or for scientific use. keywords: community; data; research cache: hsda-5731.htm plain text: hsda-5731.txt item: #17 of 46 id: hsda-5732 author: Van Peteghem, Julie title: Digital Readers of Allusive Texts: Ovidian Intertextuality in the 'Commedia' and the Digital Concordance on 'Intertextual Dante' date: 2015 words: 9999 flesch: 63 summary: I take as example the digital concordance on Intertextual Dante, a project on Digital Dante (digitaldante.columbia.edu) developed in collaboration with the Center for Digital Research and Scholarship at Columbia University, which in the first phase highlights the Ovidian intertextuality in Dante’s Divina Commedia.

John Cayley
The long subtitle of this presentation sums up the fundamental question it addresses: how can we persuade universities to own their responsibilities to the practice-based research that they patronize – while bringing new, fully-accredited methodologies and infrastructures to Arts and Humanities scholarship? The “we” in this title-sentence refers to scholars interested not only in the opportunities offered by the digital infrastructure being built but willing to actively contribute to the designing of this infrastructure.
