*** appologies for cross-posting *** The study of medieval legal documents (charters, deeds, instruments ...) makes increasingly use of digital tools. The massive growth of documents online - as images, as calendars, as texts - and the attempts made to analyze and discuss diplomatics in the web has motivated us to organize a second international conference on "Digital Diplomatics". It will take place in Naples 29.9.-1.10.2011 and we are looking for proposals. You can find the full presentation of the conference at http://www.cei.lmu.de/digdipl11/ We would like to encourage in particular young scholars and graduate students to present their ideas and projects on using the new technologies for studying old documents. Travel grants will be provided. We are looking forward to hear from you for the organization comitee Georg Vogeler -- ------------------------------------- Dr. Georg Vogeler Historisches Seminar - Historische Grundwissenschaften Ludwig-Maximilians-Universtitaet Muenchen Post: Geschwister-Scholl-Pl. 1 - D 80539 Muenchen e-mail: g.vogeler@lrz.uni-muenchen.de http://www.hgw.geschichte.uni-muenchen.de/personen/mitarbeiter/vogeler/ Institut für Dokumentologie und Editorik <http://www.i-d-e.de> Association Paléographique Internationale - Culture .
