Argument

The ALFA project is deeply integrated in the broader framework of digital humanities. As such, it uses and implements state-of-the-art digital tools and develops new products for data administration, research methods and text publication purposes.

The ALFA digital seminar aims at building a common space of discussion, education and training on the digital tools and developments of the project. Although this seminar is an opportunity to build together our digital practices within the team of the project, most of the sessions will be of a broader interest – for researcher and engineers.
