Digital Humanists on Humanities Commons 19 hours, 48 minutes ago
Digital Humanities has become a “hot” topic in academia over the last few years (as of 2012), primarily in research and scholarship. While many push forward into new realms of using technology to articulate cool findings, others at non research intensive universities are moving forward with engaging their undergraduate students in var ious for…[Read more]

Ian Willis deposited Convicts in the Cowpastures an untold story in the group
History on Humanities Commons 19 hours, 50 minutes ago
The story of European settlement in the Cowpastures is intimately connected to the story of the convicts and their masters. This story has not been told, and there is little understanding of the role of the convicts in the Cowpastures district before 1840. Who were they? What did they do? Did they stay in the district?

Kendra Leonard deposited Women’s Compiled Scores in Early Film Music in the group
Women in Film History International on Humanities Commons 5 days, 19 hours ago
In this essay I address an area of cinematic musical development where the importance of women’s contributions has gone un(der) noticed: the compiled score, a film score created for early film primarily from pre-existing pieces, in both its written and recorded varieties. I examine written and recorded compiled scores created by Hazel Burnett, A…[Read more]

Brian Croxall deposited The Invisible Labor of DH Pedagogy in the group
Digital Humanists on Humanities Commons 6 days, 19 hours ago
In this essay, we examine the invisibility of pedagogical labor in digital humanities. We argue that the complexities of teaching DH require modes of instruction and effort that are unusual, uncounted, and undertheorized. Unlike publications or citation counts, it is difficult to quantify or to review. Why does DH teaching involve so much extra…[Read more]

Mark Beumer deposited A Woman’s Touch. Hygieia, Health and Incubation in the group
Medical Humanities on Humanities Commons 1 week, 1 day ago
In this paper, I argue that Hygieia has to be viewed as a full goddess in Greek religion and medicine, with a special focus on her position within the Asklepios cult. I will examine her identity, to which scholars attribute several labels like goddess, abstraction and personification. I further argue that Hygieia’s role in performing incubation r…[Read more]

Christopher Griffin deposited Recognition Against Liberation: On the UK’s Unreformed Gender Recognition Act in the group
Gender Studies on Humanities Commons 1 week, 4 days ago
In this short article I argue that the UK government’s decision not to update the Gender Recognition Act 2004 (GRA) is more than a missed opportunity. It weaponises the GRA, now an effective instrument of assimilation and containment. The failure to reform the GRA seems like a maintenance of the status quo, but given that the circumstances have s…[Read more]

Christopher Griffin deposited Covid Disobedience and the Autoimmune Self-Destruction of Liberal Individualism in the group
Political Philosophy & Theory on Humanities Commons 1 week, 4 days ago
In this short article, I discuss a form of civil disobedience that emerged during the Covid-19 pandemic: the refusal to comply with lockdown rules. Because such rule-breakers often claim that they are acting to preserve freedom, I ask whether their unwillingness to help prevent the spread of the virus is symptomatic of neoliberal individualism.…[Read more]
