Digital Classicist

The project claims the twin aims of bringing together scholars and students with an interest in computing and the ancient world, and disseminating advice and experience to the classics discipline at large.

[1] The Digital Classicist was founded in 2005 as a collaborative project based at King's College London and the University of Kentucky, with editors and advisors from the classics discipline at large.

[5] The members of the Digital Classicist community also report quite heavily on any conference and seminar activity that they take to reflect well on the project as a whole.

Among the events cited are a series of summer seminars that have run each year since 2006 at the Institute of Classical Studies in London, and panels at the Classical Association Annual Conference in Birmingham 2007[6] Glasgow 2009, Durham 2011,[7] and the Digital Resources in the Humanities and Arts conference in September 2008.

[10] A collection of papers from the 2007 seminar series and conference panels have been published by Ashgate: Digital Research in the Study of Classical Antiquity (Bodard and Mahony (eds) 2010).
