About you
DIS wishes to appoint an innovative researcher to a full-time lectureship in Cultural Analytics & Knowledge Systems, beginning May .
We are particularly interested in applicants who could contribute to ongoing and new humanities research that advances knowledge on working with cultural or literary collections at scale, with expertise in one or more of the following areas: corpus linguistics, stylometry, network analysis, image to text analysis, information extraction, or similar approaches of relevance to textual analysis or cultural/heritage collections. The purpose of the research should be to contribute new interdisciplinary knowledge of relevance to broader humanities and social science disciplines. The candidate will have strong technical and cultural literacy skills, experience working with corpora and collections, and a solid understanding of both metadata, knowledge organisation and relevant ethical and theoretical issues surrounding each.
