March 29, 2011 - 12:50 THATcamp Florence ended, Vive THATcamp DH Manifesto !

THATCamp Florence lasted three and a half days and made it possible for more than 160 registered campers, 40 teachers and tutors, and another 30-40 participants to attend single lectures and workshops in the Bootcamp and participate in 21 discussions and ateliers during THATcamp.

The programme was heavy and many Digital Humanities issues were dealt with during these days. Within DH, the sub-discipline of Digital History was investigated from more and different viewpoints than ever before.

What everybody underlined is the fact that THATcamp Florence allowed so many continental European participants to meet each other, to show their skills, to discover projects and to focus on their digital training needs.

The Florentine Camp ended Saturday 26th of March by looking at the Digital Humanities Manifesto created during THATcamp Paris in May 2010 and now translated into many languages (German, Arabic; Italian; Spanish; English; Greek, Portuguese; Serbian). Italian Digital Humanists founded their own National Association (Associazione Informatica Umanistica e Cultura Digitale) the day before, on the 25th of March 2011, and they approved the open content of the Manifesto, which was designed to bring people together and not to reproduce divisions between disciplines and academic lobbies. It was argued that such a manifesto could have been even more strongly worded on this topic.

Florentine Campers have now a case for a “European Manifesto for the Digital Humanities”.  Meeting again in Europe why not at the European University Institute (thanks to the History and Civilisation Department) and maybe once a year, we will decide how to proceed towards the creation of a wider European community of Digital Humanists and, maybe, a European Digital Humanist Association.

So thank you all again for having given to THATCamp Florence your own energy and having shared in the “open access” think-tank way used by the camp your own individual and disciplinary knowledge with each other.

THATCamp Florence est terminé, vive THATCamp DH Manifesto !
