  • Subject: [IP-OA_Forum] Reminder: "Corpus Coranicum Christianum" – Call for Papers

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to kindly remind you about the Call for Papers for our forthcoming workshop ‘Preliminary Considerations on the Corpus Coranicum Christianum: The Quran in Translation – A Survey of the State-of-the-Art’, which will be held at the Berlin Byzantine Studies of the Freie Universität Berlin (Germany) on 5th – 7th December, 2018.

We also would like to take this opportunity to draw your attention to the special section for Digital Humanities (DH). It will deal with the question of which DH-tools are currently available and how these can be utilized for a philological-based project, as the Corpus Coranicum Christianum:

  1. Presentation of different DH-techniques and tools (advantages and disadvantages) with a focus on: * sustainability, * scalability, * usability
  2. Workflow (processing and presentation): * data modelling, * digital editions, * digital publishing
  3. Digital project development: * necessity of a lead time, * project management, * project documentation

We look forward to receiving your papers and request you to kindly spread word of this call!

 

With kind regards,

Manolis Ulbricht

Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to announce the Call for Papers for our workshop ‘Preliminary Considerations on the Corpus Coranicum Christianum. The Quran in Translation – A Survey of the State-of-the-Art’ at the Freie Universität Berlin (Germany), December 5th – 7th, 2018. In this workshop, we aim to lay the groundwork for an interdisciplinary research project, which will focus on comparing the different translations of the Quran made within Christian cultural backgrounds. The project will study the Quran and its reception from the Christian perspective by analyzing all Greek, Syriac, and Latin translations of the Quran from the 7th century CE until the Early Modern period.

The keynote speech will be delivered by Professor Angelika Neuwirth, head of the project Corpus Coranicum (CC) at the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The workshop aims to map out the different scholars and research traditions dealing with varied translations of the Quran. In addition, it seeks to connect these experts and to facilitate the scientific exchange between the multitude of studies previously conducted in this field. Finally, the workshop will examine the possibilities of using methods in the Digital Humanities for building an open-access database for systematically collecting and presenting the material for further research.

The structure of the planned project will correspond with the languages that will be analyzed. The Corpus Coranicum Christianum (CCC) shall, in a first step, consist of the three subprojects: Corpus Coranicum Byzantinum (CCB), Corpus Coranicum Syriacum (CCS), and Corpus Coranicum Latinum (CCL). Papers for the workshop are welcome in one or more of the following four sections:

  • Greek translations of the Quran (CCB)
  • Syriac translations of the Quran (CCS)
  • Latin translations of the Quran (CCL)
  • Digital Humanities (DH)

The workshop is focused on interdisciplinary research, which will, the organizers hope, encourage fruitful discussions about the state-of-the-art of the field and highlight potential areas for future research cooperation. For this purpose, we welcome abstracts of up to 300 words, to be submitted in English by May 31st, 2018 to: corpus.coranicum.christianum@klassphil.fu-berlin.de. Abstracts should include your name, affiliation, position, the title of the proposed paper, your specific source(s) you want to work on, and a brief curriculum vitae. Please also indicate the preferred section (see above: CCB, CCS, CCL, DH). Notifications will be sent out in June 2018. Full papers should be submitted by 15th November, 2018. Limited funding will be available for accommodation and/or travel. Proposed workshop languages: English, German, Spanish, and French. Papers will be published as edited volume.

The project initiative Corpus Coranicum Christianum is financed by the Presidency of the Freie Universität Berlin. For further information about the structure of the planned project and for a more detailed Call for Papers, please visit our website.

We are looking forward to welcoming you soon in Berlin!

Kind regards,

Manolis Ulbricht
