Starting from the ongoing project of a digital edition of Ferdinand de Saussure’s manuscripts – an enterprise engaging the efforts of several actors (Centre Universitaire d’Informatique de l’Université de Genève, Bibliothèque de Genève, Cercle Ferdinand de Saussure, University of Calabria) – the workshop aims at hosting the debate on the design, structuring, realization and maintenance of digital archives and collaborative online editions of modern manuscripts.
The major purpose is to gather various experts in the field of digital humanities and team members involved in modern manuscripts digitalization projects by providing the opportunity to share experiences, problems and solutions.
