CfP: Little Data and the Big Picture (ACLA 2014, NYU, 20-23 March)
by Scott Kushner 04 Nov '13

04 Nov '13

The following call for papers (viewble at http://bit.ly/H79K6q) may be of interest to readers with inclinations to literary studies. "Little Data and the Big Picture: What Everyday Literature Can Do for Comparison" a seminar to be held at the Annual Meeting of the American Comparative Literature Association New York University 20-23 March 2014 Abstract deadline: 15 November 2013 The broad claims of Big Data hide the continued importance of the specific, individual, and random. This seminar examines the contributions that Comparative Literature has made and can make for understanding the stories that are written and read against the background of “digital humanities,” “new media,” and the “information society.” Prospective participants are invited to problematize these key terms and explore how textual cultures have evolved alongside, been shaped by, and resisted successive fantasies of a data-driven society. There has always been an everyday literature of letters, memos, telegrams, and notes. How are the forms of today’s everyday literature analogous repetitions of past forms and how do they represent something qualitatively different? How do we judge? In some fashion, the papers in this seminar will explore ways that the specific, the particular, the analog, and the banal persist in the face of the general, the aggregate, the digital, and the grand arc. Possible topics include (but are not limited to): Histories and counter-histories of the information society; everyday digital textuality; computer and human languages; networked social media; Tweet poetics; posting addiction; life writing; comparative media and textual cultures; reception; censorship; quantitative historiography; textual geographies; platforms (computer and otherwise); analog/digital tensions; political action; lacunae; interface; objects (virtual and/or tangible); participation and/or non-participation; material and immaterial conditions of reading and writing. Submit a paper proposal at http://www.acla.org/submit (be sure to select "Little Data..." in the Seminar drop-down menu). Learn more about the meeting and its "distinctive structure" at http://www.acla.org/acla2014. Any questions about the seminar, inquiries about topic suitability, or nominations of possible participants may be directed to scott.kushner(a)gmail.com.

Cfp: Professional sociability of journalists on social networking sites
by Nikos Smyrnaios 03 Nov '13

03 Nov '13

About Journalism, an international review in journalism studies is pleased to announce a call for papers: "Professional sociability of journalists on social networking sites" (Download full call in PDF here: http://bit.ly/16GQPLF) Contributions may explore the following axes: - Professional discourses: how do “social network” brands claim to guide the journalists’ professional practices? What journalists describe their use of SNS in terms of cooperation with pairs, sources and the public? What are the recommendations, appreciations, or injunctions of authorities, experts and media managers related to use of SNS by journalists? What do the charts of “good practices” established in each specific media, say about collective professional references in terms of auto-regulation by ethical and moral discourses? - Uses: How do journalists integrate SNS in their everyday practices? To what extent ere these tools important in news and sources gathering? To what extent do they constitute devices for professional socialising and the raising of awareness in belonging to a group (for example, that of web journalists)? - Players: Who contributes to the disseminating of a journalistic practice on the social networks, and where? Consultants, teaching organisms, media are also spaces in which the imaginary and use prescriptions form, and can be submitted to analysis and questioning. Who are the actors that contribute to the circulation of these imaginaries, with what trajectories and professional objectives? How do the journalists use the socio- digital networks as collaboration tools that go beyond the borders of the traditional newsroom? Any other proposition, in relation to these three axes, that describes the evolution of Social Networking Sites and their uses in relation to journalistic practices will be examined. Papers published in English, French, Spanish or Portuguese. Please indicate your interest in this special issue by sending a two-page summary of your article proposal to the guest editors before the 15th November 2013, to: javier.diaz(a)upf.edu valerie.jeanne-perrier(a)celsa.paris-sorbonne.fr nicolaos.smyrnaios(a)iut-tlse3.fr Propositions will be subject to ‘double-blind’ assessments. Selected papers (30.000 to 50.000 signs, including references and footnotes) are expected before 15th March 2014.

new book: The Basque Diaspora Webscape
by P.J. Oiarzabal 03 Nov '13

03 Nov '13

*Please distribute accordingly. Sorry for cross-posting* Dear Colleagues, I would like to share with you the publication of my latest book, “The Basque Diaspora Webscape: Identity, Nation and Homeland, 1990s-2010s” (Center for Basque Studies, University of Nevada, 2013; ISBN: 978-1-935709-41-1, paperback, 272 pages, illustrations). This book engages questions central to the study of diasporas and digital technologies, by analyzing the Basque case in depth. It is about how one diaspora group, the Basques are using the Internet to preserve its identity and culture. It also examines the way Basques in the diaspora are using the Internet to create online communities and a kind of digital nationalism that links all Basques, whether living in the contemporary homeland or scattered around the world, into a single self-identifying people. The research focuses particularly on the websites created and maintained by Basque social and benevolent organizations in sixteen countries in North and South America, Australia, and Western Europe, prior to the popularization of the so-called Social or Collaborative Web or Web 2.0. That is to say, the book examines the ways these websites represent the organizations of which they are a part, and the ways they depict Basque culture, homeland, nationhood, identity, and political aspirations. For further information please see: http://euskalidentity.com/doc/The-Basque-Diaspora-Webscape-Oiarzabal-2013.p… Best regards, Pedro Pedro J.
