Online Seminar: From Scribe to Screen: Sources and Approaches to Global History in the Digital Age

Pichayapat Naisupap and Melinda Susanto (both Leiden University and Posthumus alumni) are co-organising the online seminar ‘From Scribe to Screen: Sources and Approaches to Global History in the Digital Age’.

Digital humanities and the digitisation of archives are ever-growing trends in academia. How will digitisation open up new opportunities and yet present new challenges to historical research? Co-organised with Leiden University’s COGLOSS series, the GLOBALISE project — as well as projects associated with it (Combatting Bias and Necessary Reunions) — invites discussions on digitisation, accessibility, and new approaches to global history.

The webinar starts with an introduction to GLOBALISE and its affiliated projects, followed by ‘lightning talks’, providing a platform for early career researchers to share their research and reflect on how digital methods have informed their work.
