This poster outlines our experience with using Zotero, a free and open-source citation management tool, to make Japanese translations and adaptations of Emily Brontë’s classic novel Wuthering Heights more accessible to scholars and fans who do not have command of Japanese. Leading this project are Professor Judith Pascoe, the George Mills Harper Professor of English at Florida State University (FSU), and Matthew Hunter, the Digital Scholarship Technologist at FSU Libraries. Prof. Pascoe’s...
Show moreThis poster outlines our experience with using Zotero, a free and open-source citation management tool, to make Japanese translations and adaptations of Emily Brontë’s classic novel Wuthering Heights more accessible to scholars and fans who do not have command of Japanese. Leading this project are Professor Judith Pascoe, the George Mills Harper Professor of English at Florida State University (FSU), and Matthew Hunter, the Digital Scholarship Technologist at FSU Libraries. Prof. Pascoe’s research interests include Romantic-era literature and cross-cultural adaptation. Mr. Hunter’s work centers on applications of emerging technology in humanities scholarship and pedagogy. “The Brontës in the World” is the first iteration of a collaborative, multidisciplinary project carried out by undergraduate researchers at Florida State University under the direction of Pascoe and Hunter. The work is enabled by a partnership with the FSU Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP), which encourages undergraduate students to discover and explore their own research interests with mentorship from university faculty. We designed this project to build on Pascoe’s Brontë research, but also allow undergraduate researchers to track the Brontës’ legacy in a variety of cultural contexts. Although we have focused on the Brontës in Japan for this first iteration, the project will develop in keeping with the foreign language strengths and particular research interests of subsequent generations of student researchers. We chose Zotero as the vehicle for this project because of its ability to gather, organize, and augment bibliographic metadata. Especially as compared to other citation management platforms, Zotero allows users to freely draw on and reconfigure open source bibliographic data. We set out to compile and enrich open data culled from library catalogs and catalog aggregator sources, such as OCLC’s WorldCat and the National Diet Library Search. We do so in order to create a new contact point for enriched bibliographic data which illuminates how Western literature has been transformed through translation and adaptation in non-Western contexts, and which makes information about these adaptations more broadly accessible. Our poster also outlines how Zotero functions as a pedagogical tool useful for interrogating digital scholarship methodologies. In producing this bibliography, we have been forced to grapple with how bibliographic structures fail to accommodate non-Western cultural markers. For example, our students have noticed that some adaptations’ multiple creator roles (artists, editors, directors, storyline adapters, inkers, etc.) are not reflected in “standard” bibliographic categories, and that non-Western naming conventions are often not easily represented. Together with our students, we are also engaging with Zotero as a hermeneutic device that helps us think about the organizational structures imposed by current cataloguing systems. As our research team adds bespoke tagged and relational data to our library, we see how connections among our sources enable some forms of relationship-building but delimit others. In other words, tagging is meaning-making. As we have interacted with this tool, we and our students have, by necessity, questioned the ways in which we access and compartmentalize knowledge. Our poster then summarizes our experience using a Zotero bibliography as a teaching tool, a research activity, and a mode of scholarly humanistic inquiry into digital hermeneutics. “The Brontës in the World” stands as an effort to illuminate the transmission of the Brontës’ work, but also as a meditation on data organization that, we hope, will fuel conversations in the international DH community about the affordances and limitations of current resource management infrastructure. We are happy to share how Zotero, nominally a citation management tool, has served as the foundation for both our research and pedagogy. It has allowed us to build a database that will serve researchers interested in translation and adaptation studies, and to establish a hub for ongoing student explorations of data collection and citation practice. To supplement the poster presentation, we provide an illustrated two-language (English and Japanese) handout that highlights our discoveries and future plans.

Show moreAs a part of Florida State’s Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP), students Michela Sieman and Shelby Young were two among a group of research assistants who worked with Dr. Nathan Stoltzfus in fulfilling what he deemed as a project on current-day historical representations in digital media. The project explores the representations of the Nazi regime in digital media today. By analyzing English Wikipedia pages related to Nazi Germany, this project aims to examine this relationship in terms of discovering biases behind editors and editing trends. With the prevalence of digital media and technology in today’s society and information now at everyone’s fingertips, it is important that this information is represented truthfully and with no hint of personal bias or unsupported claims. Despite the inability to produce conclusive results, the project has already identified trends of Wikipedia editing, the types of editors on the Nazi Germany pages, and some reasons that pages are being changed. This work is holding Wikipedia to its own fair standards in hopes to further present reliable information about the Nazi regime. Through a year of communication and working in various settings, this research group was able to explore a research area as well as open up pathways of research for all parties involved.

This project explores the national identity of people of the Alsace region of France, which lies on the northeast border with Germany. This region alone contains six dialects that intertwine French and German. Germany defeated France and annexed Alsace in 1871, but the region returned to France following Germany’s defeat in World War I. The territory was then occupied by Germany and was officially part of the Greater German Reich, yet Alsace was never officially annexed back to Germany. The...

This region alone contains six dialects that intertwine French and German. Germany defeated France and annexed Alsace in 1871, but the region returned to France following Germany’s defeat in World War I. The territory was then occupied by Germany and was officially part of the Greater German Reich, yet Alsace was never officially annexed back to Germany. The culture of this region is not only a mix of the two nationalities due to shifting national borders, but due to the land historically being a territory that is traded in treaties out of many wars, specifically World War I and II. By interviewing three generations of Alsatians, I sought to discover what national identity they maintain, as well as their perspectives on their regional history. This project is important because it is rooted it in an international debate of identity crisis, specifically national identity.

International non-governmental organizations (INGOs) have different strategies of raising awareness and funds for their causes. Sometimes however, these strategies can rely on the use of stereotypical or dehumanizing depictions of people from the developing world. We have all seen the images of hungry children with bloated stomachs, presumably from some African or Asian country. To what extent do these narratives present a grossly simplified version of the struggles people in poverty face?...
Show moreInternational non-governmental organizations (INGOs) have different strategies of raising awareness and funds for their causes. Sometimes however, these strategies can rely on the use of stereotypical or dehumanizing depictions of people from the developing world. We have all seen the images of hungry children with bloated stomachs, presumably from some African or Asian country. To what extent do these narratives present a grossly simplified version of the struggles people in poverty face? The term “poverty porn” has been coined to describe these kinds of shock-based images which reduce people to their vulnerability and helplessness. Narratives within INGO media campaigns can either contribute to, or combat stereotypical images of developing regions. The first section of this research will discuss representations of people from developing regions. Second, the research will examine strategies employed in several digital-based INGO media campaigns through their use of visual and verbal tools. Third, the research will analyze the ethical nature of media campaigns which contribute to or combat stereotypes. It is important for international non-governmental organizations and those within the field of international development to consider how communication strategies impact the understanding we have of developing regions. This research aims to look critically at INGO communications and provide best practices for organizations constructing their own media campaigns.
