2 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 Overview Tour de Table Setting the Scene: Why this meeting? What is it about, what is it not about? Data Functionality Proposed Agenda

3 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 Who? Sheila Anderson (King's College, London) Michele Barbera (NetSeven, Pisa/Skype) Lou Burnard (TGE Adonis, Paris) Sophie David (TGE Adonis, Paris) Anja Eisemann ( Humboldt University, Berlin) Stefan Gradmann (Humboldt University, Berlin, EuropeanaConnect/Europeana V1.0) Antoine Isaac (Europeana / Free University Amsterdam) Gerhard Lauer (Göttingen University) Jan Molendijk (Europeana) Christian Morbidoni (NetSeven, Pisa) Jean-Luc Pinol (TGE Adonis, Paris) Stephane Pouyllau (TGE Adonis, Paris) Laurent Romary (CNRS / Humboldt University, Berlin) Susan Schreibman (Digital Humanities Observatory, Dublin/Skype) Niels Oliver Walkowski (Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie) Claire Warwick (University College, London) Dov Winer (Europeana Judaica)

4 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 Why? Europeana is the largest agglomeration of cultural heritage objects representations, at least Europe wide. One of the main area of study in the humanities is the understanding and reaggregation of cultural heritage in the broadest sense. Digital Humanities build ”new ways of approach and new paradigms for the enduring problems in the study of human cultural artifacts” (Roberto Busa) → Europeana could evolve into one of the favourite playing grounds of the Digital Humanities!

9 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 The Europeana Data Model (EDM)

10 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 … some context

11 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 … more context

12 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 … and the Big Picture: The Semantic Data Layer

13 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 The Semantic Data Layer library archive museum Bridging „isles of information“ by connecting objects from different domains via cross-vocabulary links.

14 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 EDM and Linked Open Data Europeana Information Space Context Data DBpedia PND and SWD (prototype) Geonames LCSH …

15 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 'Beyond Catalogues and Records' generates new questions! Where do resource aggregations 'start'? Where do they 'end'? And what constitutes document boundaries?? And which node was connected to which one at a given time??? A B C

16 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 … and new opportunities: Triple Sets and Reasoning (1)

17 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 Triple Sets and Reasoning (2)

18 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 Triple Sets and Reasoning (3) → Potential of novel digital heuristics!

19 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 Functionality

20 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 Functionality Caveat: Europeana does not consider building specialised digital humanities engines! But we may be able to make functional primitives available in our API. Such as the ones identified by John Unsworth in 2000: Discovering Annotating Comparing Referring Sampling Illustrating Representing Is this list still valid? Do we need to add items? How much of this is specific for the DH? How much of this can happen within Europeana? How much of this needs shifting to specialised engines?

21 Linked Open Europeana... for the Digital Humanities. Prof. Dr. Stefan Gradmann. Espace Paris Centre / TGE Adonis, 04 April 2011 Conclusion on Motivation The danger is the often institutionally enforced disconnect between technician and scholar: “Unfortunately we are still in some instances thinking that the non-technical scholar specifies the end in mind, whereupon the technician implements it. In that circumstance both lose.” (Willard McCarty, Humanist Discussion Group ) In order to avoid this Europeana needs to Seamlessly integrate in the semantic layer of Linked open Data to contextualise object representations provide APIs enabling specialised reasoning for machine based digital heuristics work with the humanities computing community on the related functional primitivesl In that circumstance both win! → Meeting with Digital Humanists and Europeana Developers in Paris 4 th of April as a starting event for a continuous process!
