Literary Legacies of Macon County and Tuskegee Institute Zora Neale Hurston, Ralph Ellison and Albert Murray
Grant details: AB-264042-19
Title: Literary Legacies of Macon County and Tuskegee Institute Zora Neale Hurston, Ralph Ellison and Albert Murray
Author: Adaku Ankumah, Rhonda Collier, Zanice Bond, and Ann Gebhard
Abstract: One of the major components of the project is to create a digital humanities website on Hurston, Ellison, and Murray to be housed on the Tuskegee University Archives Repository Website (www.tuskegee.edu/ArchivesRepository). The site includes research completed during the grant period and selected materials from the following valuable library collections: Zora Neale Hurston Collection, Albert Murray Papers, which Tuskegee University recently acquired, and the Ralph Ellison Collection. We anticipate researchers, educators, and students nationally and globally, would be able to use the site for the resources available to them. A digitized unpublished essay by Ellison, for example, gives rare access to his early compositions. Other items include important, never-before-published photographs and documents, as well as teaching and research resources, some from our K-12 Workshop, are a permanent addition to this website.

Abstract: Chamisa: A Journal of Literary, Performance, and Visual Arts of the Greater Southwest is sponsored by the Southwest Hispanic Research Institute* (SHRI) at the University of New Mexico. The arts of the southwest region are abundant, diverse, and often blur the boundaries between categories normally accepted as defining the structural hierarchies of the art world. As these forms change, they enrich and redefine the cultural landscape. The journal seeks to capture the dynamic ways that the creative arts in this region have developed and continue to advance over time and in relation to the diverse composition of its communities.

Leonardo da Vinci Between Art and Science: Essays
Grant details: EH-50290-11
Title: Leonardo da Vinci Between Art and Science: Essays
Author: Francesca Fiorani
Author: Anna Kim
Abstract: This collection of essays emerged from the research projects that 24 NEH Scholars developed during the NEH Summer Institute “Leonardo da Vinci: Between Art and Science” (Florence, Italy, June-July 2012), hosted bythe Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz (KHI).
Over a period of three weeks, NEH Scholars explored the relations between art and science in the works of Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), the versatile, canonical artist of western art who moved with equal ease among artistic, literary, intellectual and scientific circles.
The Institute was organized around three major themes:
¦ Word and Image
¦ Painting and Drawing
¦ Craftsmen and Scholars
Selected to address cogent issues in the study of Leonardo's works and writings, these three themes are more generally significant to understand the relations between art and science in the early modern period.
Within these three themes, NEH Scholars developed their individual research projects and the essays gathered here are the first outcomes of those projects.
The essays vary greatly in themes and approaches, reflecting the diverse background, training and interests of their authors. They all provide unique points of entry into the many aspects of Leonardo da Vinci’s works and writings and suggest possible use of new materials for undergraduate teaching and scholarly research.

The Spenser Archive: Prototype

Title: The Spenser Archive: Prototype
Author: Joseph Loewenstein
Author: David Lee Miller
Author: Patrick Cheney
Author: Stephen Pentecost
Author: Douglas Knox
Abstract: The Spenser Project Digital Archive is the online companion to the Collected Works of Edmund Spenser, forthcoming from Oxford University Press. At present, readers have access here to full-text versions of the books in which Spenser’s work appeared between 1569 and 1590: A Theatre for Voluptuous Worldlings, The Shepheardes Calender, the Spenser-Harvey Letters, and The First Part of The Faerie Queene (books I-III), as well as facsimiles of those books. We also provide scans of all pages containing variant states, an analysis of various forme-states within editions of these texts, and, in the case of The Shepheardes Calender, a grid of variants across the early editions through 1611.
Behind the scenes, we are constructing an even richer archive, which will supplement the forthcoming Oxford Edition of the Collected Works of Edmund Spenser—and so increase the usefulness of that edition. Transcriptions of all of Spenser’s works will soon be made publicly available, and edited versions of those texts will follow shortly. Glossaries, commentary, textual and critical introductions, will be available here as soon as they are completed and approved for public release by OUP.

Database of Cultural Presentations
Grant details: FA-55637-11
Title: Database of Cultural Presentations
Author: Danielle Fosler-Lussier
Author: Eric Fosler-Lussier
Abstract: The data presented here represents partial information about the U.S. State Department's Cultural Presentations Program from 1954-1980. These data were collected during the research for Music In America's Cold War Diplomacy. The two major archival repositories represented in this database are these:
• National Archives at College Park, Maryland. Records are principally located in Record Group 59 (General Records of the Department of State).
• ARK: University of Arkansas Libraries, Department of Special Collections, Fayetteville, Arkansas. MC468, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs Historical Collection.
This database represents a first attempt to organize the extant data about the State Department’s Cultural Presentations program, which began in 1954. The database is far from complete for the following reasons:
* The U.S. government keeps only a tiny fraction (about 5%) of the records it generates. Most of the extant archival records of cultural presentations tours are incomplete; some tours are not documented at all in existing State Department records. There are fewer records for tours in the early-to-mid 1960s than for tours in the 1950s.
* I have not had the resources to survey all the extant records. My primary focus was on the time period between 1954 and the early 1970s; later tours are poorly represented in the data collected here.
* Performers’ itineraries were subject to change. Local circumstances often forced significant alterations to the plan for each tour. Revised itineraries may not have been generated or preserved.
* Many documents about cultural diplomacy have not yet been collected from personal collections and the archives of groups that traveled.
The database should therefore be used as a starting point only. Nonetheless, it offers scholars and other interested persons a way to find out who went where on State Department-funded musical tours.

Berry Slave Value Database [show prizes]
Grant details: FA-57651-14
Title: Berry Slave Value Database
Author: Daina Ramey Berry
Abstract: This study uses historical records from 36 archives in the United States to analyze 8,437 enslaved people’s sale and/or appraisal prices from 1797 to 1865. Demographic information, including name, year, age/age group, gender, state, and trade/skill notations were recorded when applicable. By calculating average appraisal and sale values across cross-sections of gender (male or female) and age group (0-10 years old, 11-22 years old, 23-39 years old, and 40+ years old), a total of sixteen major comparative prices were analyzed (app/male/0-10; app/female/0-10; sale/male/0-10; sale/female/0-10; app/male/11-22; app/female/11-22; sale/male/11-22; sale/female/11-22; app/male/23-39; app/female/23-39; sale/male/23-39; sale/female/23-39; app/male/40+; app/female/40+; sale/male/40+; sale/female/40+). Scholars have the opportunity to use this data set to understand how enslaved people were valued and appraised. The demographic data included will be useful to those who want to explore various aspects of the history of slavery and enslaved people.

Káma-Kapúska! Making Marks in Indian Country, 1833–34
Grant details: FEL-257163-18
Title: Káma-Kapúska! Making Marks in Indian Country, 1833–34
Author: Kristine K. Ronan
Author: Allan McLeod
Abstract: Over the winter of 1833–34, the Numak'aki (Mandan) war chief Mató-Tópe (ca. 1784–1837) visited the painting studio kept by Swiss painter Karl Bodmer (1809–93) at Fort Clark, a trading post in what is now North Dakota, fifty-five times. This project argues that this shared studio space and its activities are an extension of the Middle Ground, or the cultural arena co-created by Native and non-Native peoples on the French frontier. The Numak'aki name that local warriors bestowed upon Bodmer (Kapúska, or “Forcefully Makes Marks”) demonstrates this co-creation by describing the artist’s practices through a Numak'aki lens, rather than a Western one—a testimony to the co-operation of two distinct cultural systems within the Fort Clark studio. The project’s digital platform then models this argument in presenting the project’s related archives through both Native and non-Native frameworks.

Rio de Janeiro Wet Nurses Dataset: Enslaved and Free Women in Rio de Janeiro, 1850
Grant details: FEL-273005-21
Title: Rio de Janeiro Wet Nurses Dataset: Enslaved and Free Women in Rio de Janeiro, 1850
Author: Cassia Roth
Abstract: The “Rio de Janeiro Wet-Nursing Dataset” (RJWND) comprises all advertisements for wet nurses for the year of 1850 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, extracted from the city’s main commercial newspaper, Jornal do Commercio. “Mercenary” wet nursing, what contemporaries called the practice of paying other women to breastfeed their children, was a thriving market throughout the nineteenth century. Most wet nurses were enslaved women, with freed women of color and white immigrant women also working in the trade. More rarely, white Brazilian women whose newborns had died advertised their milk. We can draw several conclusions from this data. Most importantly, RJWND demonstrates the ubiquity of wet nursing in urban Brazil. Women from all races, classes, and legal statuses participated in this activity, whether as elite mothers not breastfeeding their own children, or as free, freed, freed African, and enslaved women breastfeeding other women’s children. It also sheds light on how enslavers valued wet nurses both for their reproductive labors (wet nursing) and their productive outputs (cleaning, cooking).

Title: Cahto Analyzed Texts Volume 1 - Cultural Texts
Author: Sally R. Anderson
Abstract: This first volume of two comprises the texts as texts, whether full stories, short songs, cultural phrases and prayers. The major sources for such texts are Pliny E. Goddard (1909, 1906; working with Bill Ray), Edwin M. Loeb (1932; working with Lucy (Cooke) Ray, Martina (Ray) Bell, and Gill Ray) and John P. Harrington (1942; working with Martina (Ray) Bell and Gill Ray).
The Cahto words are transcribed into the Community's standard writing system, then in the second line broken into major word parts, then glossed according to the breakdown, and then with a whole word gloss below, and finally grammatical category. After this there follows a somewhat modernized translation, the original author's translation, and the original author's word for word translation (if provided). Then finally the original author's transcription of the line(s). In the case of many of the Goddard texts there are two original transcription lines, one from the published text collection (1909)
and one from the field notebooks (1906).

Cahto Dictionary - 2021 Web Edition
Grant details: FN-266279-19
Title: Cahto Dictionary - 2021 Web Edition
Author: Sally R. Anderson
Abstract: The Cahto (also spelled "Kato") language is a California Athabaskan language of the Eel River group in northern Mendocino county, California. This dictionary is the result of the author's twenty-one years' evening and weekend research on the language, and a final year finishing the dictionary full-time, thanks to NEH funding (see Acknowledgements). This stands as the first dictionary for Cahto, and only the second dictionary for any California Athabaskan language, the first being Golla's Hupa Language Dictionary. The dictionary is comprised of over 4,600 main Cahto headwords and 3,100 variants (mostly inflected forms), extracted from nearly 11,000 forms documented by scholars between the 1850's and the 2000's, but most prolifically in the first decades of the 20th century by Pliny Earle Goddard, J. P. Harrington, Edward Sapir, C. Hart Merriam, Edward Curtis, and others. This 2021 updated edition results from another NEH-funded project analyzing Cahto texts, which has resulted in finding several hundred more forms and variants, and the linking of text examples into a significant percentage of main entries.

Zapotec Conversations Archive
Grant details: FN-50065-10
Title: Zapotec Conversations Archive
Author: Mark A. Sicoli
Abstract: This archive is the result of the Documenting Endangered Languages Project "Lachixío Zapotec Conversations: Audio-Visual Archive and Transcription Collection (zpl)" [Oaxaca, Mexico] funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities FN-50065-10. The NEH funding provided for Mark Sicoli to produce transcriptions of a 40 hour video corpus, enrich and code segments of the data for conversation analysis of basic social actions, and translate the transcribed Zapotec to Spanish and portions of the corpus to English. Lachixío (including the close dialects of San Vicente, and San Miguel and San Mateo Mixtepec) is the last language of the West Zapotec clade in which speakers are competent conversationalists. This corpus was produced at a time when the historical trajectory was one of language shift to Spanish monolingualism throughout the region and in which the opportunities to document the language in its natural conversational ecology had grown few. The videos were recorded during the summers of 2008 and 2009 under funding from the Max Planck Society when Sicoli was a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics. The corpus of transcribed videos provides resources that represent the language in everyday cultural settings, such as families receiving visitors, working together on daily chores, eating meals, joking, teasing, socializing children, sharing stories and more. The materials can both be considered a linguistic "text" collection as well as a representation of Zapotec culture in the Lachixío region of the Sierra Sur of Oaxaca, Mexico through conversational (multimodal) social interaction.

The Speech of Children from Cusco and Chuquisaca
Grant details: FN-50091-11
Title: The Speech of Children from Cusco and Chuquisaca
Author: Susan Kalt
Abstract: Our main goal in creating this collection is to document children’s comprehension and production of Quechua (quz, quh) in rural highland Bolivia and Peru, where a continuum of permeation from Spanish can be observed. The secondary goal is to document variation within Cuzco-Collao Quechua, giving special attention to the variety of Quechua spoken in rural Chuquisaca in South Bolivia. An understanding of rural Bolivian variants is essential for producing school materials for South Bolivian children and for preserving an understanding of their cultural heritage.
Among the scant documentation of the variety spoken in Chuquisaca is a sizeable vocabulary to be included in a dictionary of Bolivian Quechua in preparation by Dr. Pedro Plaza Martínez, and a pedagogical grammar by Louise Stark, Manuel Segovia Bayo and Felicia Segovia Polo (1971). Variation in Cuzco-Collao affix order and interpretation is also detailed by Simon Van de Kerke in his doctoral dissertation (1996) including a morphosyntactic study of the Quechua spoken in the town of Tarata, in close proximity to the highly relexified Cochabamba dialect. Our goal is to study rural and less relexified varieties.
According to a Peruvian Census (2007:2.4.1) declaration of Quechua as the language learned in childhood declined 3.3 percent between 1993-2007. Anecdotal evidence indicates a similar trend in Bolivia. Clearly, the rapid loss of a major indigenous language spoken in childhood represents a threat to the vitality of indigenous cultural transmission in the region as well as a major setback for humankind’s understanding of child first and second anguage acquisition, bilingualism and language contact. Despite the fact that there are hundreds of thousands of speakers of Cuzco-Collao Quechua, only a handful of published studies of Andean children’s grammar focus on their L1 grammar, and virtually all of these focus on Peruvian children, leaving a serious gap in documentation of indigenous children’s language.

Mapping Covid-19 Street Art
Grant details: FS-267176-19
Title: Mapping Covid-19 Street Art
Author: Heather Shirley
Abstract: MAPPING COVID-19 STREET ART: Artists and writers producing work in the streets – including tags, graffiti, murals, stickers, and other installations on walls, pavement, and signs – are in a unique position to respond quickly and effectively in a moment of crisis. Street art’s ephemeral nature serves to reveal very immediate and sometimes fleeting responses, often in a manner that can be raw and direct. At the same time, in the context of a crisis, street art also has the potential to transform urban space and foster a sustained political dialogue, reaching a wide audience, particularly when museums and galleries are shuttered. For all of these reasons, it is not surprising to see an explosion of street art around the world created in response to the Covid-19 global pandemic, even as our movement in public spaces is limited due to public health concerns.
Through the seminar, the author was able to incorporate more material from Brazil into the database, most notably work by the São Paulo collective Nós Artivistas. The author also connected with these artists personally—the seminar really gave the participant a good framework for understanding their work.

Serai: Premodern Encounters

Title: Serai: Premodern Encounters
Author: E. Natalie Rothman
Author: Karen Nelson
Author: Julia Schleck
Author: Geoff Piersol
Abstract: Serai is a collaborative project, bringing together a development team at the University of Toronto with collaborators at the universities of Nebraska Lincoln, Maryland, and elsewhere. It originated in two distinct initiatives:
ePorte, a collaboratory for Premodern Mediterranean Studies, began at the University of Toronto in 2009. It involved from its inception several doctoral students in the Department of History (specialists in cross-confessional interactions in medieval and early modern Iberia, the Italian Peninsula, and the Ottoman Empire), information technologists, digital librarians, and work-study undergraduate students in History and Computer Science, and was coordinated by Prof. Natalie Rothman.
Serai/Early Modern Exchange, a site dedicated to early modern European encounters with Islamicate societies, emerged out of a NEH seminar at the University of Maryland in 2010. The original NEH seminar, “Remapping the Renaissance: Exchange between Early Modern Islam and Europe,” was conceived by Judith Tucker (History, Georgetown University), Adele Seeff (Renaissance Studies, University of Maryland), and Karen Nelson (English, University of Maryland). Participants included scholars from History, Religious Studies, Art History, and Languages and Literatures. One of these, Julia Schleck, forged connections with Jyotsna Singh and developed an affiliated program, Serai.

The Letters of Marie Mancini
Grant details: FT-270715-20
Title: The Letters of Marie Mancini
Author: Olivia Wikle
Author: Sarah Nelson
Abstract: Marie Mancini (1639-1715) was famous as the first love of Louis XIV of France, and later she and her sister Hortense became scandalous celebrities by running away from their husbands and traveling unaccompanied through much of Western Europe. Marie’s unpublished letters to Lorenzo Colonna (her estranged husband) and others reside in an Italian archive. This project will publish them online.
Begun in Spring 2020, this project seeks to publish Marie Mancini's approximately 900 letters that are held in the Colonna Archive, Library of the Abbey of Santa Scolastica, in Subiaco, Italy. There are approximately 100 transcribed letters currently available so far, six of which have been translated into English.
Ultimately, the goal of this project is not only to provide a space for Marie Mancini's voice to be freely accessed, but also to provide avenues for historical exploration. To this end, users may:
Explore and read the letters;
Browse Marie's correspondence in chronological order;
View her travels across Europe;
Download the letters' text for further research.

Abstract: Thanks to the funding of the NEH, I am in the process of creating an open-access website which provides a portal for scholars of pre-modern collective communal histories to publish their raw prosopographical data, whether in the form of population databases or family trees. Such an endeavor will allow other researchers to not only better engage the monographs or journal articles relying on the corresponding information but also observe additional historical trends beyond original investigator’s purview. Furthermore, such data could be used as an educational tool for students whose linguistic limitations or lack of documentary access had previously prevented them from conducting cultural analyses on historical populations.

Abstract: Freedom on the Move is a database of fugitives from North American slavery. With the advent of newspapers in the American colonies, enslavers posted “runaway ads” to try to locate fugitives. Additionally, jailers posted ads describing people they had apprehended in search of the enslavers who claimed the fugitives as property. Created to control the movement of enslaved people, the ads ultimately preserved the details of individual lives--their personality, appearance, and life story. Taken collectively, the ads constitute a detailed, concise, and rare source of information about the experiences of enslaved people. Freedom on the Move is compiling thousands of these stories of resistance that have never been accessible in one place.

Author: Ceferino Salgado Castañeda
Author: Jonathan D. Amith
Author: Amelia Domínguez Alcántara
Author: Hermelindo Salazar Osollo
Abstract: This is a long-term project to document the lexicosemantics of the Nahuat spoken in the municipality of Cuetzalan del Progreso, Puebla. Over the past 6 months Amith and Ceferino Salgado have finished reviewing each of the 8,000 + entries in terms of sense definitions and illustrative sentences (at least one for every sense). Illustrative sentences are both elaborated by the three native speaker editors and taken from over 200 hours of digital audio recordings (all of which has been transcribed). By the end of this Level 1 Mesolex project the team hopes to have 9,000 entries and 20,000 illustrative sentences, divided between those that were edited and recorded by the lexicographic team and those that were selected and extracted from the corpus.

Lexicon and audio recordings of Yoloxóchitl Mixtec
Grant details: HAA-266482-19
Title: Lexicon and audio recordings of Yoloxóchitl Mixtec
Author: Rey Castillo García
Author: Jonathan D. Amith
Abstract: This is a long-term project to document the lexicosemantics of the Mixtec spoken in the village of Yoloxóchitl, municipality of San Luis Acátlan, state of Guerrero, Mexico. Over the past several years Amith and Rey Castillo have been reviewing 2,500 + entries in terms of the orthography and gloss for each entry. Castillo has already recorded each headword, repeated three times in a high quality digital audio recording and each recording will be linked to its headword in the online Mesolex dictionary. Subsequently they will record cognate sets from 4 neighboring villages and spend a year reviewing the sense definitions and illustrative sentences for each entry. By the end of this Level 1 Mesolex project the team hopes to have 2,500 entries with linked headword recordings from Yoloxóchitl and at least one other village as well as preliminary sense definitions for each entry. The lexical database and recordings will be archived and published as a corpus by the Linguistic Data Consortium, University of Pennsylvania. Presently a reduced version of this corpus is available at OpenSLR

A Historical Dictionary of Chol (Mayan): The Lexical Sources from 1789 to 1935 [databased version]
Grant details: HAA-266482-19
Title: A Historical Dictionary of Chol (Mayan): The Lexical Sources from 1789 to 1935 [databased version]
Author: Cruz Guzmán, Ausencio
Author: Hopkins, Nicholas A.
Author: Josserand, J. Kathryn
Abstract: The present resource is a database version (by Kenia Velasco) of a comparative dictionary by the abovementioned authors, which was the result of 30-years of research into five historical Chol sources, here put together in a comparative dictionary: (1) LF 1892: Eighteenth Century Chol of Tila, Chiapas: The earliest published Chol lexicon is that of León Fernández (1892), which is a transcription of data recorded in Tila, Chiapas, in 1789. Chol was apparently missed in the sixteenth century survey represented by the Relaciones Geográficas (Harvey 1972), and no major documents are known from the earliest Colonial period (Bright 1967, Hellmuth 1970), including the catechisms, grammars, and vocabularies that must have been produced during the period when Chol speakers were being missionized and relocated (de Vos 1980a,b); (2) Campbell 1984: Colonial Chol Day Names: The Chol day names reported in this dictionary are based on those published by Lyle Campbell in 1984; (3) Stoll 1938: The Nineteenth-Century Chol Vocabulary of C. H. Berendt: This extensive Chol lexicon was recorded by the German scholar C. H. Berendt towards the middle of the nineteenth century, and remained unpublished until after his death; (4) Sapper (1907): A Late Nineteenth-Century Chol Wordlist: An extensive Chol word list, apparently collected just before the end of the nineteenth century, was published in the proceedings of the 15th International Congress of Americanists by Karl Sapper, German ethnographer and historian. Sapper (1907:440-458) presented data from the two major Chol dialects, those of Tila and Tumbalá (and their dependencies). He accompanied the Chol data with comparative data from Chortí and Pocomam; (5) Starr (1902): Two Turn-of-the-Century Chol Wordlists: Two Chol word lists appear as appendices to Frederick Starr's Notes Upon the Ethnography of Southern Mexico (Proceedings of the Davenport Academy of Sciences 9:63-172, 1902).

Gardens of Crimea [dataset]
Grant details: HAA-266553-19
Title: Gardens of Crimea [dataset]
Author: Kelly O'Neill
Abstract: Ten years after Catherine II annexed Crimea, Russian imperial officials undertook a survey of some of the most valuable properties in the newly-acquired territory: its gardens. The survey focused on orchards and vineyards that had been abandoned by their owners (Tatars and Greeks) and claimed as state property. The work was carried out between 1791 and 1793 and this dataset presents the results. The data describes 809 orchards and 332 vineyards located mainly on the southern coast and along a trio of rivers flowing northwest out of the mountains. Location data is based on OpenStreetMap data (WGS84).

Abstract: Project Co-Director Dan Trepal’s postdoctoral research position duties focused on the geocoding, cleaning / preparation and record-linking of several historical big datasets during Year 1 (with assistance from Project Geospatial Research Scientist Ryan Williams as well as students Juip, Lizzadro-McPherson, Spikberg, and Stone). The following datasets were integrated into the CC-HSDI and are being prepared for record-linking, or are in the process of being record-linked:
● Decennial US Census (years: 1880 and 1900-1940): 100% of individuals recorded in the census for our study area (~379,000 individuals) geocoded; attribute tables reviewed and normalized in preparation for record linking. Completed record linking between 1920 Census and 1918 School Records. We have also integrated the IPUMS Multigenerational Longitudinal Panel (MLP) crosswalk tables into the CC-HSDI. This IPUMS-developed tool has permitted us to crosslink approximately 40% of individuals within our overall US census dataset for the census years 1910 through 1930. In addition, we have identified within this dataset and for our study area the in-migration (years: 1910, 1920, 1930) and out-migration (years: 1920, 1930, 1940) cohorts for three decades each. This work is ongoing.
● School Records (1904-1926): 25,879 individual records transcribed from original documents and reformatted as normalized tables. Completed geocoding and record linking of all records.
● Sanitation Reports, Calumet & Hecla Mining Co. Medical Department (1910-1921): 2,225 individual records geocoded; attribute tables reviewed and normalized in preparation for record linking with other CC-HSDI datasets.
● Mining Company Home ownership data. Incorporated into the CC-HSDI Calumet and Hecla Mining Company home ownership / lease status data for the period c. 1908-1920 digitized from historical cartography. After digitizing, this information was appended to 7,594 existing historical building polygons within the CC-HSDI’s existing buil

Abstract: European artists have sought to create life-like images since the Renaissance. The techniques used by artists to impart realism to their paintings often rely on approaches based in mathematics, like linear perspective; yet the means used to assess the verisimilitude of realist paintings have remained subjective, even intuitive. An exploration of alternative and relatively objective methods for evaluating pictorial realism could enhance existing art historical research. We propose a machine-learning-based paradigm for studying pictorial realism in an explainable way. Unlike subjective evaluations made by art historians or computer-based painting analysis exploiting inexplicable learned features, our framework assesses realism by measuring the similarity between clouds painted by exceptionally skillful 19th-century landscape painters like John Constable and photographs of clouds. The experimental results of cloud classification show that Constable approximates more consistently than his contemporaries the formal features of actual clouds in his paintings. Our analyses suggest that artists working in the decades leading up to the invention of photography worked in a mode that anticipated some of the stylistic features of photography. The study is a springboard for deeper analyses of pictorial realism using computer vision and machine learning.

Tribesourcing Southwest Film [show prizes]
Grant details: HAA-284912-22
Title: Tribesourcing Southwest Film
Author: Melissa S. Dollman
Author: Jennifer L. Jenkins
Author: Rhiannon Sorrell
Abstract: Based on the collection of nearly 500 films in the American Indian Film Gallery housed at the University of Arizona, this project tribesources mid-20th century educational and sponsored films about Native peoples of the U.S. Southwest and (coming soon!) Southern California by recording Native narrations and contextual information for film content from the Native communities they represent. The films contain valuable historical visual imagery, but the original narrations are often inaccurate and culturally uninformed. Tribesourcing places historical materials with the peoples they represent in order to tell the untold or suppressed story. As we have conceived it, tribesourcing is guided by the Protocols for Native American Archival Materials (2006).

Threads of Our Community: A History of the Avenir Museum
Grant details: HC-276447-20
Title: Threads of Our Community: A History of the Avenir Museum
Author: Trista Barker
Author: Helen Baer
Abstract: Threads of Our Community: A History of the Avenir Museum is a virtual exhibition of the Avenir Museum of Design and Merchandising, created in part with funding from a CARES grant during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. The concept for the exhibition was originally developed before the pandemic hit and planned to open with a physical exhibition in Fall 2020. Unable to host any events in physical spaces, the virtual exhibition then became an avenue for bringing humanities and education to the public. The exhibition is a collection of digitized items showcasing the growth Avenir Museum has undergone. The Avenir began as a small teaching collection in the 1950s and has since grown into a collection of approximately 25,000 historic clothing and textile artifacts, housed in a state-of-the-art museum facility. This digital collection consists of materials from the virtual exhibition dated 1986 to 2010 and including photographs, brochures, catalogs, newspaper articles, and photographic slides.

Title: The Modern Art Iraq Archive
Author: Nada Shabout
Abstract: The Modern Art Iraq Archive (MAIA) project works to document Iraq’s rich but threatened modern artistic heritage. This project prototypes a participatory content-management system to trace, share and enable community enrichment around this art. MAIA houses images of works of art, many of them now lost, from the Iraqi Museum of Modern Art in Baghdad, as well as publications, exhibition catalogs, and personal documentation. MAIA's goals are to raise awareness of the diverse body of modern works of Iraqi art, to help locate their current whereabouts, and to assist agencies working to prevent their illegal movement and sale. MAIA aims to reach a wide and participatory audience across the globe, and offers users the ability to document, discuss, explore, and enrich Iraqi artistic expressions and experiences. Central to its development were ease of use, translation into Arabic, extensive and inclusive documentation, community contribution, and syndication of content elsewhere on the Web.

Abstract: Terminology can be more confusing than enlightening, if it is unclear how a term is used.

Making use and expanding upon the architectural drawings and photographs of the AEGARON project, AEGARON-IST provides a well-thought out and vetted architectural terminology in three languages (English, German and Arabic). Each term is illustrated by actual examples, rather than idealized construction drawings. The database links to the Getty Thesaurus of Art and Architecture and has a built in hierarchical organization and definition of relationships.

Abstract: The Asian Stoneware Jars project, authored by Peter Grave of the University of New England (Australia), is a data publication in Open Context that provides data on the likely provenance and production dynamics of large stone jars, many found in dozens of shipwrecks in the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Using a variety of analytical techniques to detect trace elements, Graves and his team identified that the stoneware vessels originated in at least seventeen discrete production zones ranging from southern China to Burma, providing insights on the transport of goods around the globe during the 14th- 17th centuries.

Hoax: ghosts in 19th-c. British press

Title: Hoax: ghosts in 19th-c. British press
Author: Gabi Keane
Author: David J. Birnbaum
Author: Emma Schwarz
Author: Mason Gobat
Author: Leif-Jöran Olsson
Abstract: This project aims to collect, annotate, and mediate newspaper- and periodical-reported ghost stories from 19th-c. Britain, with a location-focus on London. While researching and using available newspaper and periodical databases, I discovered a field largely dominated by large databases (archives), which contain either scans of broadsheets or collected books. A researcher can expect to use finding aids, record and note-taking tools, powerful search and filtering, plus visualization within an archive. But if the finding aids and search cannot index on data that drives the research questions, one can expect to rely only on proxies for their interests. In a perfect world, the research questions could guide the research tools, not the other way around.
The project originated as a research station for an undergraduate thesis Locating Literature in the Ghost Hoax: an exploration of 19th-century print news media by Gabi Keane. Shortly after submission of the thesis, the project became a pedagogical tool for an National Endowment for the Humanities Institute for the Advancement of Digital Humanities grant application “Advanced digital editing”. The version of the application that you're currently using represents the laboratory edition created in support of the grant; it also represents an expression of the research questions the author stated in the original thesis.
The idea of creating a dedicated project space for brief newspaper and periodical articles, collected by a common theme, is somewhat unusual among digital edition projects, as its subject matter tends to be based on manuscripts, like books, short stories, poems, or collected letters. These kinds of digital editions can privilege the [known] authors in a way that simply is not as useful in periodical studies, and thus many low-code publication tools did not account for some of the nuances of the corpus. With this project, we hope to model the way one may go about larger subject-focused periodical collections.

Abstract: Citizenship Under Siege
Humanities in the Public Square
The Preamble to the US Constitution speaks of “We the People”—but who counts as “We the People” is a hotly contested question. In Citizenship Under Siege, a project organized by AAC&U and The Democracy Commitment with funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities, seven community colleges used the humanities to explore this topic. Featuring the efforts of project participants and educators engaged in similar work, this issue of Diversity & Democracy illustrates the potential of the humanities to illuminate issues of identity and belonging.

Grant details: PA-52072-06
Title: Atlas of Historical County Boundaries
Author: Newberry Library
Abstract: A project of the William M. Scholl Center for American History and Culture at The Newberry Library in Chicago, the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries is a powerful historical research and reference tool in electronic form. The Atlas presents in maps and text complete data about the creation and all subsequent changes (dated to the day) in the size, shape, and location of every county in the fifty United States and the District of Columbia. It also includes non-county areas, unsuccessful authorizations for new counties, changes in county names and organization, and the temporary attachments of non-county areas and unorganized counties to fully functioning counties. The principal sources for these data are the most authoritative available: the session laws of the colonies, territories, and states that created and changed the counties.

Survey of Small Historical Societies, Libraries and Museums for Hispanic Materials and Their Management
Grant details: PW-253694-17
Title: Survey of Small Historical Societies, Libraries and Museums for Hispanic Materials and Their Management
Author: Recovering the US Hispanic Literary Heritage/Arte Publico Press-University of Houston
Abstract: Some 358 surveys were distributed (on excel list linked). Of these, 59 were completed and returned (See Excel list). This effort was followed up with phone and email contacts to 36 institutions. Of the final list of 36 organizations reporting fully, we invited 18 (See Excel list) to come to Houston for a full-day conference; of these 8 attended and participated in the conference (See Excel list). The final “Guide” that we published online and are promoting includes the full report of holdings of the institutions, the types of institutions and their needs; in these, there was a considerable amount of Hispanic archival materials identified, so as to justify the need for this project.

Digital Archive of Huhugam Archaeology
Grant details: PW-253799-17
Title: Digital Archive of Huhugam Archaeology
Author: Center for Digital Antiquity
Abstract: The Digital Archive of Huhugam Archaeology contains over 1,200 digital datasets, documents, reports and images focused on the ancient Huhugam (1500 B.C. – 1450 A.D.) of the southwestern U.S. These files are primarily “grey literature,” that is, unpublished reports and data sets that would otherwise be difficult to obtain.
By creating this collection, we hope this comprehensive archive will:
Transform scholars’ ability to answer questions about Huhugam society and will provide crucial long-term data for comparative studies.
1. Give Indigenous communities access to a wealth of archaeological research on ancestral populations.
2. Allow the general public to obtain information about this fascinating ancient culture by directly accessing the digital archive.
Archive development is guided by a crowd-sourced survey and workshops designed to understand the needs of diverse users. The archive will be curated by tDAR, an established digital repository that provides free Web discovery and access to its holdings and pursues a robust program of digital data preservation.
