The #IANLS has now its own #zenodo community where all presentations held at the #ianls25 can be published: https://zenodo.org/communities/ianls/records
A small but hopefully important step towards more #openaccess in the field of #neolatin studies.

Heading back to Berlin after just 2 days of #IANLS25 . Really happy with the 4 special sessions on digital technology. There's are strong focus on databases and corpora, but there were also papers on digital methods. Let's see how things develop over the next triennium!

@diyclassics calls for 'massive philology' at #IANLS25 . For the language models to become better at Latin, we need big corpora of Neo-Latin plain texts of decent quality, not necessarily perfect transcriptions. It will be a major undertaking to compile this corpus from all the different sources out there. I guess that the digitized and OCRed library collections must play a role in this.

Interesting project presentations this morning in the special session on digital technology at #IANLS25 : Malika Bastin-Hammou presented the database of 16th century paratexts of ancient drama: https://ithac.elan-numerique.fr
Šime Demo talked about LAPIS, a database of Latin church inscriptions in Croatia. The project uses Semantic MediaWiki: easy to use, powerful and reasonably interoperable. The database isn't publicly available yet (https://lapis.fhs.unizg.hr) but it looks promising.

Later, I'll be giving a talk at #IANLS25 on some quantitative analyses of Latin book prodcution in Germany (and Italy in part) from 1500 through 1800. Slides, code and data can be found here: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15878272
I'm looking forward to the questions and the discussion!

Very happy that the #IANLS has circulated the "Invitation to the Fediverse for Neo-Latinists" among their members: https://ianls.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/An-invitation-to-the-Fediverse-for-Neo-Latinists.pdf
Let's see how this works out ...

✓ travel
✓ accomodation
✓ registrationSo it seems I am all set now and ready for the #IANLS25 conference next July in Aix-en-Provence. Would never have thought what a challenge is can be to get there.
It's great that will be - in addition to many interesting other papers - quite a number of talks on #digital #neolatin studies. The programme can be found at https://ianls-2025.sciencesconf.org/resource/page/id/32
