"Geschichte am Mittwoch - Geschichte im Dialog" Seminar Series November 8, 2017 - Institut für Geschichte, Universität Wien, Universitätsring 1, 1010 Wien, Hörsaal 45
Presentation of the book "Antonio Vallisneri: Primi Itineris per Montes Specimen Physico-Medicum", soon to be published for the digital humanities project Edition Open Sources (http://www.edition-open-sources.org/). The seminar will focus on the content of Vallisneri's manuscript and on the many historical, scientific, and philosophical topics it addresses. Also, a methodological reflection will be made on the issues and goals related to the Edition Open Sources Project – as the problematic relationship between textual criticism and digital humanities and the impact of open access on scholarly research.
