Transcription Assistant

"This Transcription Assistant is a creating a tool to assist transcribers in creating transcriptions, and incorporate meta-data about each image and transcription that can then be used to search through an electronic library of transcriptions. By doing so, we hope to encourage even casual users into creating works that can easily be distributed, thus helping those who are in need of a transcription but may not have the necessary skills to create it themselves."

La Storia in bit | Storia Digitale

La Storia in bit | Storia Digitale:
Dagli anni Sessanta del Novecento computer e informatica si sono proposti allo storico quali preziosi strumenti di ricerca, pur ponendo problematiche metodologiche non ancora del tutto superate.

Gli studiosi del settore attraverso pubblicazioni e seminari hanno da allora dato vita a numerose riflessioni, dalle esperienze degli anni Settanta sino agli anni Novanta, anni in cui il mutamento digitale posto dalla Rete ha portato ad interrogarsi sulla compatibilità di Internet con la ricerca storica.

Qualità e volatilità sono oggi alla base dei grandi interrogativi di chi fa ricerca, soprattutto in una disciplina quale è la Storia, che si fonda sull'analisi di fonti e poggia su impalcature storiografiche.
