Project

Computational Study of Culture: Cultural Analytics for Modern Arab and Islamic Studies

This project aims to harness state-fo-the-art Cultural Analytics approaches and technologies to make pioneering forays into the vast corpus of machine-readable Arabic texts that has become available in the last two decades. It also aims to digitize and annotate a set of early Arabic media material from the late 19th till present. This will be done along the lines of two case studies: Modern Arab socio-political and cultural history and Contemporary Diaspora Arab-Islamic cultural archive and digital repository.
