Collaborations at Major Events in Slovenia and Abroad

Between June 17 and 20, the Pan-European network for Digital Humanities, DARIAH, held its conference in Göttingen. Professor Katja Mihurko participated as a member of the core committee of the working group Women Writers in History. At this conference, the working group presented for the first time to the broader scholarly community the digital database SHE WROTE (Studying Historical Early Women’s Reception: Oeuvres, Texts, Engagements, https://shewrote.rich.ru.nl/). This database is a new iteration of the previously known Women Writers in database, to which the University of Nova Gorica has made significant contributions within the framework of the COST Action Women Writers in History and the HERA project Travelling Texts, 1790–1914: The Transnational Reception of Women's Writing at the Fringes of Europe (involving Finland, the Netherlands, Norway, Slovenia, and Spain). Moving forward, this database – to which we will continue to contribute our research data – will serve as a crucial resource supporting digital humanities research at the Research Centre for the Humanities and its integration into the pedagogical activities at the Faculty of Humanities.
