New clustering of disciplines

[BarbaraSafradin]

Scope is too broad, e.g. veterinary studies/medicines

[BarbaraSafradin]

I reassessed the existing list, took out some odd disciplines and added new ones:

Archeology Architecture Archival studies Area Studies Art History Artificial Intelligence Art and architecture Biblical studies Cartography Classical studies Cognitive Science Computational Linguistics Computer Science Cultural Studies Demography Development studies Digital Culture Digital humanities Education studies Ethnology Ethnomusicology European Studies Film studies Folklore studies Game Studies Gender Studies Geography/planning Heritage Studies History History of science History of Technology Information Science Language and Literature Language studies Life sciences Linguistics Literary Studies Mathematics Media and Communication Studies Media history Media Studies Medieval Studies Modern and contemporary history Musicology Natural sciences Oral History Palaeography Philology Philosophy Phonetics Political Communication Political Science Postcolonial Theories Psycholinguistics Theology Science of law Social History Social Sciences Social-Economic History Speech technology Theatre Studies Urban studies

Looks good! There are still some things in there that may not be too attached to Digital Humanities, but it is better to cover some ground on the fringes as well... I would like to add a distinct discipline for "Digital Scholarly Edition" because it is such a prominent subject with various degrees and entire programs like DIXIT, and "Geoinformation Systems" since they are also very prominent in everything related to Archeology.

What has just occurred to me is that we could also have a look into the discipline list that the use for submitting and reviewing proposals at the annual ADHO DH conference. I am not reviewing myself this year, but maybe I can still extract the list from Conftool somehow... i'll check!

Yes, good ideas Walter! Once you have that list, let me know. And indeed, I made this list based on the the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) list of disciplines. It is also difficult to asses what exactly falls under the scope 'digital humanities', since quite different opinions exist on this. That was also sometimes the problem with regard to the Dariah DH project registry ...

What about the clarin/dariah specific tags?

I extracted the list from the DH (i'm afraid i'll have to review now - ah, the things I do for the Course Registry... ;) ) and in all honesty, it seems pretty random and not necessarily any "better" to me...

They differentiate into 34 "disciplines" and 58 "topics":

DISCIPLINES: anthropology archaeology art history asian studies classical studies computer science creative and performing arts, including writing cultural studies design disability studies english studies film and media studies folklore and oral history french studies gender studies geography german studies historical studies italian studies law library & information science linguistics literary studies medieval studies music near eastern studies philology philosophy renaissance studies rhetorical studies sociology spanish and spanish american studies theology translation studies

TOPICS: agent modeling and simulation archives, repositories, sustainability and preservation audio, video, multimedia authorship attribution / authority bibliographic methods / textual studies copyright, licensing, and Open Access concording and indexing content analysis corpora and corpus activities crowdsourcing cultural and/or institutional infrastructure databases & dbms data mining / text mining data modeling and architecture including hypothesis-driven modeling digitisation, resource creation, and discovery digitisation - theory and practice diversity encoding - theory and practice games and meaningful play GLAM: galleries, libraries, archives, museums geospatial analysis, interfaces & technology, spatio-temporal modeling/analysis & visualization hypertext image processing information architecture information retrieval interdisciplinary collaboration interface & user experience design/publishing & delivery systems/user studies/user needs internet / world wide web knowledge representation lexicography linking and annotation machine translation metadata mobile applications and mobile design morphology multilingual / multicultural approaches natural language processing networks, relationships, graphs ontologies project design, organization, management query languages scholarly editing semantic analysis semantic web social media software design and development speech processing standards and interoperability stylistics and stylometry teaching, pedagogy and curriculum text analysis text generation universal/inclusive design virtual and augmented reality visualisation xml 3D Printing

I agree... A lot of sub branches which belong to the discipline 'history', ie. renaissance studies, near eastern studies, and to the discipline language, i.e. Italian studies, german studies ... these can all fit into 'history' and visa versa 'language studies' I would say.

Concerning the topics listed; are those some kind of techniques, or a mix of techniques and methods? Since we also have them listed under our tadirah categories. I think the best is to take out the best from the list I updated and this list, and to find some consensus on this.
