xvii Susan Hockey, Electronic Texts in the Humanities (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2000), p.5. xviii Hockey, op cit., is an extremely useful, objective introduction to the field and its history. In addition see: A Companion to Unsworth & Schreibman, cited above; Willard McCarty, Humanities Computing (Hampshire and NY: Palgrave, 2005); and Elizabeth Bergmann Loizeaux and Neil Fraistat, Reimagining Textuality (Madison: University of Wisconsin Press, 2002). xix See www.tei-c.org. xx Jerome McGann, “Texts in N-dimensions and Interpretation in a New Key,” expands this compact list through a broader discussion that summarizes our work at SpecLab from his perspective. (www.humanities.mcmaster.ca/~texttech/pdf/vol12_2_02.pdf) xxi Michael Day’s paper on metadata and digital preservation: http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/metadata/presentations/ecdl2001-day/paper.html and this discussion of metadata: http://digitalarchive.oclc.org/da/ViewObjectMain.jsp will provide some useful starting points. xxii Henry Kucera and Nelson Francis of Computational Analysis of Present-Day American English in 1967 is considered a turning point for this field, and the publication Studies in Corpus Linguistics, Elena Tognini-Bonelli, general editor, and the professional journal publications Corpora, and Studies in Corpus Linguistics. xxiii Adam Mathes, “Folksonomies - Cooperative Classification and Communication Through Shared Metadata,” is a useful introduction. http://www.adammathes.com/academic/computer-mediated- communication/folksonomies.html 1.1 History / 3/2008 / 61
xxiv For a recent summary and overview: http://jamesthornton.com/search-engine- research/ xxv For updates on data mining: http://dataminingresearch.blogspot.com/ xxvi That distinction, more than any other, differentiates natural and formal languages, and not surprisingly, demarcates work in the fields of artificial intelligence from that of cognitive studies, for instance. The most striking example of recognition of this distinction is in the difference between the attitudes on which Ludwig Wittgenstein approached the study of language in his Tractatus and in Philosophical Investigations. That shift registers the recognition that the project of totalized, objectified formalistic approaches to language was a failure and the subsequent realization that only use, situated and specific, could provide insight into the signifying capabilities of language. xxvii Jerome McGann, The Critique of Modern Textual Criticism (Chicago: U. of Chicago Press, 1983), and also McGann Black Riders: The Visible Language of Modernism (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1993), Randall McLeod, lectures on “Material Narratives” (http://www.sas.upenn.edu/~traister/pennsem.html), Steve McCaffery and bp nichol, Rational Geomancy (Vancouver: Talonbooks, 1992), Johanna Drucker, The Visible Word: Experimental Typography and Modern Art 1909-1923 (Chicago: U. of Chicago Press, 1994), and essays by Nick Frankel, McLeod, Peter Robinson, Manuel Portela et alia in Marking the Text, edited by Joe Bray, Miriam Handley, and Anne C.
