Jeremy Ott and Megan Daly elected as officers of the FCLSC for 2021-2023

Jeremy Ott and Megan Daly were elected as Chair and Secretary, respectively, of the Forum for Classics, Libraries, and Scholarly Communications at the Forum’s annual meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 5, 2021.

The Forum for Classics, Libraries, and Scholarly Communications, an affiliated interest group of the Society for Classical Studies convened its annual meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 5 via zoom as part of the 152nd Annual Meeting of the SCS, held jointly with the Archaeological Institute of America.

The meeting was the first to be held virtually for the FCLSC and was the one of the best attended on record, as many were able to attend who would not have made the trip to Chicago, the location for the meeting before the SCS and AIA made the decision in June 2020 not to hold a physical convention. Nearly 70 members attended the business meeting in the first hour and over 150 people attended the second hour, a discussion between Barbara Rockenbach, Stephen F. Gates ’68 University Librarian at Yale University, and Simon Neame, Dean of Libraries at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, about the future of academic and research libraries in the wake of the pandemic experience.

During the business meeting, the FCLSC held its officer elections, electing Jeremy Ott as Chair and Megan Daly as Secretary, both to two-year terms, starting January 2021.

Jeremy Ott is an Associate Librarian of Classics and Germanic Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He studied Classics at Wabash College, and received his Ph.D. in Art History and Archaeology at New York University’s Institute of Fine Arts. Before coming to UC Berkeley in 2015, he worked in a variety of libraries and archives at institutions including the American School of Classical Studies at Athens, the American Research Center in Sofia, and NYU. He is active in the American Library Association and serves on the steering committee of the German-North American Resources Partnership (Center for Research Libraries). In his nomination statement he pledged to help the FCLSC build on its long-term strengths and to explore new ways to be of greater relevance to the large number of schools not currently reflected within FCLSC membership, and which may be facing particularly acute challenges at this time. 

Megan Daly has been an Assistant Librarian of Classics, Philosophy, and Religion at the University of Florida for three and a half years. Before taking on this role she earned her Ph.D. in Classics from the University of Florida and taught at the University of North Florida while working on a grant-funded project focused on increasing access to Latin and Greek rare books. She looks forward to collaborating on the various projects of the FCLSC. 

The FCLSC extends its congratulations to Jeremy and Megan on their election and its thanks to the outgoing Chair David M. Ratzan and Secretary Rebecca Stuhr for their service over the past two years.

Ancient Makerspaces 2021 at the SCS/AIA Annual Meeting, Jan. 9, 2021

The Forum for Classics, Libraries, and Scholarly Communications (FCLSC), an affiliated interest group of the Society for Classical Studies, is sponsoring Ancient MakerSpaces 2021 at the SCS/AIA Annual Meeting on Saturday, Jan. 9, 2021 from 9am to 3pm CST.

It is nearly time for the Annual Joint Meeting of the Society for Classical Studies and the Archaeological Institute of America, and the Forum for Classics, Libraries, and Scholarly Communications (FCLSC) is excited to be sponsoring the fourth Ancient MakerSpaces (AMS2021) workshop at the SCS/AIA annual meeting.

Ancient MakerSpaces is an all-day “workshop” meant to bring attention to projects working at the intersection of Digital Humanities and ancient world studies. Almost all research, scholarly communication, and teaching in ancient studies today bears the imprint of digital technology in some way, yet the growing number of projects and the rapid rate of technological development combine to present a distinct challenge for scholars who are interested in taking advantage of these advances. Since 2017 AMS has been a space at the SCS/AIA annual meeting for students and scholars to interact with experienced digital humanists presenting on and demonstrating a variety of digital techniques and digital projects of broad application for teaching, research and publication. AMS2021 runs from 9:00am until 3:00pm on Saturday, Jan. 9, 2021.

AMS2021 organizers Aaron Hershkowitz (Institute for Advanced Study), Rachel Starry (UC Riverside), and Natalie Susmann (MIT) have done an incredible job in this challenging year to bring a full and varied line up to the 2021 Annual Meeting. AMS2021 is broken up into three thematic sessions: Interdisciplinary Digital Methodologies (9:00-10:35 CST), Pedagogy and Public Digital Scholarship (10:45-12:15 CST), and Digital Scholarship and the Ancient World: Current Challenges and Future Questions (1:15-2:10 CST). The full schedule appears at the end of this announcement.

This year the format will be slightly altered from that of past iterations of AMS, in order to accommodate the virtual setting of the meeting. Each of the morning sessions will start with presentations, which are made up of 5-minute lightning talks and 10-minute introductions to active demonstration projects. After a brief break there will be a Q&A and discussion period for all of the presentations in that session. The final portion of each morning session will be dedicated to project demonstrations. During this time breakout rooms dedicated to each of the demonstrations will be opened so that presenters can lead audience members through the use of their resource or project while answering questions.

The first afternoon session (Digital Scholarship and the Ancient World: Current Challenges and Future Questions: 1:15-2:10 CST) will begin with a recap of the morning session followed by three additional presentations and a Q&A period for those presentations. The programmed portion of AMS 2021 will conclude with a discussion of the themes that have emerged over the course of the day as well as of some pressing topics and questions in the digital scholarship of the ancient world, led by the AMS organizers.

The final afternoon session is designed to stand in for a coffee hour planned for the in-person meeting. The goal for the “digital coffee hour” is to provide a venue for small group discussion and networking. The format is designed to be flexible and respond to participant interest, and could consist of breakout rooms, a large group discussion, or some mix of the two.

AMS2021 FAQ

If you have never been to AMS — and even if you have, everything is different this year! — here are a few answers to FAQ you may have:

  • You must be registered for the AIA/SCS meeting to attend AMS, but there is no separate registration required for AMS itself. You can join the AMS session at any time through the conference platform.
  • You do not need to stay for the whole event: please come and go as you please. Just bear in mind that the separation of presentations from Q&A and demonstrations may make it helpful to stay for the entirety of a particular session, even if your interest is mostly in one project or presentation.
  • No previous experience with Digital Humanities is necessary to participate—we welcome everyone who is interested in or curious about this fast-growing area. 
  • Both morning sessions will have Breakouts to allow for more in-depth demonstration, discussion, and Q&A for showcased projects.
  • Participants are encouraged to use the AIA/SCS conference hashtag #AIASCS or the AMS hashtag #AncMakers on social media, and AMS organizers will be watching the #AncMakers tag for questions to bring into discussion sessions. However, please respect presenters’ wishes if they indicate that they do not want their talk tweeted.

The first AMS workshop was a collaboration of David M. Ratzan and Patrick Burns at the 2017 SCS/AIA meeting. At the 2020 SCS/AIA Annual Meeting the FCLSC voted to become the sponsoring body for the workshop and AMS2021 is the first organized under its aegis.

Reposted from the ISAW Library blog (post by Jasmine Smith)

With the spread of Covid-19, institutions related to the study of antiquity are finding new and creative ways to continue to engage with their communities and wider audiences.

Most institutions are of course turning to technology to create virtual events and experiences that users can enjoy from wherever they are so long as they have an internet connection. These include virtual conferences, museum exhibits, and even virtual tours of ancient places. The ISAW Library staff have attended various virtual events. For instance, the annual meetings of the Association of Ancient Historians and the American Research Center in Egypt were both migrated to an online platform. We have assembled a brief list of free, open to the public, upcoming or current virtual events and experiences that have been brought to our attention:

Virtual Tours and Museum Exhibits

  • Tomb of Menna
  • Aslam al-Silahdar Mosque
  • Bab Zuwayla
  • Beni Hasan
  • Tomb of Meresankh
  • See a longer list of tours of Egyptian sites here
  • Ancient Egypt Rediscovered gallery at the National Museum of Scotland

Lectures and Conferences

  • Online Panel: Good Archaeology, Bad Archaeologists?  (June 12, 2020)
  • Recorded lecture by ISAW Professor Lorenzo d’Alfonso, conference on Cappadocia and Cappadocians from the Hellensitic to the Byzantine period
  • Webinar Series: Wolfson (Ancient) Warfare Wednesdays
  • Conference: Wonderful Things 2020: The Material Culture of the Egypt Centre, (weekly lectures through early July)
  • Egypt Exploration Society Virtual Study Day (June 13, 2020)

Please keep in mind some online conferences and lectures require (free) registration in order to access links for the event.

Press release: The campaign for digital papyrology

June 10, 2020 Posted by David Ratzan under News

Making the study of ancient papyri self-sustainable: we are on the right track

In the last six months, $162,523 have been raised towards making papyri.info self-sustainable! This is more than 6.5% of the 2.5 million dollars we need to secure the future of a tool used daily by scholars, students, and members of the general public from all over the world.

Papyrology is the science of deciphering and interpreting the books and documents—hundreds of thousands of them—preserved from the ancient world. The bulk of this material was written on papyrus and was found in Egypt; the main language of the texts is Greek, but Egyptian, Arabic, Latin, and other languages are also represented. It is no exaggeration to say that the our knowledge of the culture and history of the ancient Mediterranean would be staggeringly diminished without the contributions of papyrology.

Reconstructing time-worn texts, often in scripts that would make for challenging reading even if perfectly preserved and written in one’s own language, is slow and difficult work. The advent of powerful computer tools has transformed this work and accelerated discovery, even permitting research that was once considered impossible. The most important of these tools is papyri.info, a resource that runs largely on the good will and spare time of its users and lacks any sort of permanent support. This is hardly a sustainable model for a project that has become so crucial for our understanding of the ancient world.

Reading new papyri brings exciting discoveries on a daily basis, and it requires the involvement of scholars with very particular skills. Without the proper tools, however, papyrologists cannot go very far. In the age of digital resources, they rely on several important databases, of which papyri.info is indisputably the central element. Although individual papyrologists can help maintain the database, papyri.info must still be monitored on a daily basis, and for this we need a stable position.

Recognizing the risk to future scholarship, the Association Internationale de Papyrologues (AIP) and the American Association of Papyrologists (ASP) launched an endowment campaign in November 2019, with the aim of raising 2.5 million to create a permanent support position for papyri.info. Individual scholars and foundations have generously responded to this call: $162,523 (6.5% of our goal) have already been secured, and altogether $512,500 (20.50%) have been pledged. Several partners have also provided their support.

The current Covid-19 pandemic has only served to emphasize the importance of digital tools for scholarship. Within a matter of days, most of us lost all access to libraries and became almost totally dependent on the internet. The crisis should spur us to redouble our efforts to support those resources that are essential for humanities research and help us make sense of the present world by understanding past ones. papyri.info is one such tool, and we hope that we can count on your support to ensure its longevity.

Brill includes new statement on the ethics of publishing provenanced texts

January 22, 2020 Posted by David Ratzan under News, Professional Ethics
No Comments

The publication of texts and objects remains a core activity in ancient studies, but the last two decades have witnessed a heightened sensitivity to the importance of provenance, both as a necessary object of scholarly investigation and as a central tenet of professional academic ethics. Recent scandals related to faked manuscripts (e.g., the so-called “Gospel of Jesus’s Wife”) and looted objects or stolen objects or texts (e.g., the alleged theft and sale of Oxyrhynchus papyri by Prof. Dirk Obbink) have proved to be object lessons in the scholarly and ethical obligation to take a careful and critical stance on issue of provenance when researching and deciding to publish any text or object.

Multispectral image of the “New Sappho,” published by Dirk Obbink with a problematic provenance in 2015. For the most recent developments on this piece, see Roberta Mazza’s blog: https://facesandvoices.wordpress.com/2020/01/13/news-on-the-newest-sappho-fragments-back-to-christies-salerooms/

In a heartening development, academic publishers, under pressure from their authors and their scholarly societies, are now beginning to accept responsibility for provenance. The revelation that at least five of the texts from the Museum of the Bible published in Dead Sea Scrolls Fragments in the Museum Collection, Vol. 1, edited by E. Tov, K. Davis, and R. Duke in 2016 without adequate provenance are very likely forgeries led to an open letter to the publisher in 2018, in which the signatories asserted that

This episode again demonstrates the urgent need for publishers as well as academics to exercise due diligence, through their peer reviewers, in checking that publications of antiquities, including ancient texts, acquired recently on the market give a full and annotated discussion of the acquisition and provenance history. We strongly suggest that Brill and other publishers treat this as seriously as they do copyright, and in their instructions to authors and contracts include a clause requiring the author or authors to be responsible for providing a full and proper explanation of the provenance and legitimacy of such recent acquisitions.

Brill has now responded by including a new paragraph in its editorial handbook (p. 7) on provenance, which I reproduce here:

Unprovenanced Artifacts: When presenting ancient artifacts, especially but not necessarily for the first time, authors publishing with Brill are required to follow the relevant society policies of their field, including but not limited to those of ASOR, SBL, AIA, and SCS (links provided below), concerning provenance and authenticity. Such artifacts include, but are not limited to, ancient texts, such as papyri, inscriptions, cuneiform tablets, and codices.

ASOR (http://www.asor.org/about-asor/policies/policy-on-professional-conduct/)
SBL (https://www.sbl-site.org/assets/pdfs/SBL-Artifacts-Policy_20160903.pdf)
AIA (https://www.archaeological.org/pdfs/AIA_Code_of_EthicsA5S.pdf)
SCS (https://classicalstudies.org/about/scs-statement-professional-ethics)

I will note that ancient coins are not called about above in the list of named classes of artifact (although the way the policy is written it would seem to include them). This is, perhaps, a tacit recognition that the numismatic market is so large and the collaboration of private collectors so necessary for research, that a strict provenance requirement may be impracticable. (See, for example, the collection and acquisition policy of the American Numismatic Society.)

For those interested in keeping abreast of developments related to provenance, publication and the antiquities market, particularly as it touches on papyri, Roberta Mazza’s Faces and Voices and Brent Nongri’s Variant Readings blogs are required reading.
