H-CLC
THE LIST FOR COMPUTERS IN LITERARY STUDIES
=============================================================================
H-CLC is an international electronic seminar for researchers, teachers
and editors of literature in all languages -- ancient and modern -- who are
interested in the application of computer related approaches to literary
studies. H-CLC is sponsored by H-Net (Humanities On-Line), the National
Endowment for the Arts, Michigan State University, and a team of volunteers.
The purpose of H-CLC is to encourage collaboration of scholars by giving
them the opportunity to discuss projects and to share information and
experience. H-CLC offers a platform for the discussion of projects in
progress and methodological issues as well as technical and administrative
problems arising from the application of computing to literary criticism.
H-CLC acts as a meeting place for software designers and users in the areas
of analysis, editing, encoding and representation of literary texts, and it
posts calls for papers and information about pertinent new products and
services.
H-CLC is a moderated discussion list where members normally receive all
contributions within 24 hours of their submission to the editor.
H-CLC maintains a fileserver that contains resources like bibliographies,
reviews, syllabi, conference announcements, information about job openings
and scholarships, and a preprint exchange. H-CLC's fileserver and the preprint
exchange in particular, accommodate the rapid development of computer hard-
and software, computer applications in literary criticism, hypermedia, and
their theoretical implications, with which print media can not keep up. It
also expands the range of publishable research, so as to include e.g.
experimental projects or students' term papers. In addition, contributors can
receive feedback for papers in preparation from a very specified critical
audience. The preprint exchange is ordered by subject and can be searched
efficiently. Twice a month, abstracts of the latest contributions will
be posted on H-CLC.
To become a member of H-CLC, please send a request to be added to the list of
subscribers and a completed questionnaire with a brief statement about your
activities in the field (a cut and pasteable template is provided at the end
of this message) to the editors at the following address:
