虽然DH2022的主会议审稿已完成，DH2022仍有工作坊 (workshop) 在征稿中，研究和开发传记人物数据的朋友不要错过——
传记和传记数据是历史研究的宝贵资源，它们为我们提供了成千上万的历史人物的基本信息：从一个民族的文化英雄，到成千上万在艺术、政治、人文或自然科学等领域有影响力的其他重要却不为人知的人物。他们的历史生活轨迹可为有形遗产提供重要背景，这些遗产由历史人物创造、拥有或影响，或是描绘、意指他们。个体传记事件可以进一步聚合为（历史的）更大语境的复合材料：团体（如行会、家族史）、机构（如艺术学校、大学、宗教团体、政治运动、公司）和区域实体（从城市到整个国家）。
传记的计算分析开辟了新的、有趣的研究方向。个人具有可以被识别并用于信息检索和数据分析的共同特征，如出生日期、职业、社会网络和地点。数字人文学科的工具和方法既可用于此类数据的定量分析，也可为更多定性研究问题提供线索。
2022年7月25日，在线工作坊。
与DH2022会议联合举办。

Call for Papers
Biographical and prosopographical data are invaluable sources for historical research as they provide us with essential information on thousands of historical figures: from the cultural heroes of a nation to the many thousands of other significant, yet lesser-known figures who were influential in domains such as the arts, politics, humanities, or natural sciences. Their historical life paths can provide crucial context for tangible heritage objects, which have been created, owned, or influenced by historical actors, or which depict or refer to them. The events of individual biographies can further be aggregated into (histories of) larger contextual composites: groups (e.g. guilds, family histories), institutions (e.g. art schools, universities, religious orders, political movements, companies) and regional entities (from cities to whole countries).
Computational analysis of biographies has opened up new and interesting research directions. Individuals share common characteristics that can be identified and used for information retrieval and data analysis, such as date of birth, occupation, social networks and places. Tools and approaches from the digital humanities can be used for both quantitative analyses of such data and for providing leads for more qualitative research questions.
July 25, 2022, online.
Held in conjunction with the Digital Humanities 2022 conference.
