DISSINET has launched new social media accounts to share its research and connect with digital humanists and historians online.
We are excited to announce that DISSINET is now on Bluesky and Mastodon! Use these links to follow us and receive updates on DISSINET publications, research, and upcoming events:
We encourage you to share our accounts with anyone who might be interested – digital humanists, researchers of religion, medievalists, and beyond!
Katia Riccardo's doctoral dissertation, "A computational analysis of inquisitorial language and relationship networks in the inquisition register of Bologna (1291-1310)", is now available online. It offers the most comprehensive digital humanities study to date of the Bologna inquisition register, one of the richest surviving sources for inquisitorial activity in medieval Italy.
We have published the DISSICON dataset (which stands for DISSINET Conceptual Network), offering an ontology for analysing medieval inquisition records and other trial documents. It formalizes actions, concepts, and their relationships to support computational analyses of historical material.
