Abstract

Die Diskurslinguistik als relativ neue Teildisziplin der germanistischen Linguistik beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, wie soziale Wirklichkeiten in transtextuell organisierten Einheiten konstruiert werden. Bisher finden dabei noch kaum Texte aus digitalen Medien (z.B. aus Twitter) Berücksichtigung. Ziel ist es, das Programm und das Methodeninventar der Diskurslinguistik in zwei Richtungen zu erweitern: Zum einen sollen die spezifischen Beschreibungskategorien und Analysewerkzeuge für Diskurse in digitalen Medien systematisiert werden. Zum anderen sollen Methoden und Instrumente der Korpuslinguistik und Digital Methods im Hinblick auf die Anforderungen der Diskurslinguistik evaluiert und ausgebaut werden. Die Publikation thematisiert Spezifika digitaler Medien und Plattformen aus diskurslinguistischer Sicht und beschreibt, welche charakteristischen Muster sich aus diesen Spezifika in digitalen Diskursen ergeben. Zudem werden ethische und rechtliche Aspekte bei der Analyse digitaler Diskurse (z.B. Anonymisierung igitaler (Sprach-)Daten) thematisiert. In einem umfassenden Methodenkapitel geben die Autor/-innen zudem einen Überblick über relevante Methoden für digitale Diskursanalysen, deren Einsatz an Fallbeispielen illustriert wird. The aim of this publication is to expand the program and methodological inventory of discourse linguistics in two ways: firstly, by systematizing the specific descriptive categories and analytical tools available for discourses in digital media (e.g., hashtags). Secondly, it seeks to evaluate and develop digital methods and the methods and tools of corpus linguistics to meet the requirements of discourse linguistics.

Abstract

Disinformation and so-called fake news are contemporary phenomena with rich histories. Disinformation, or the willful introduction of false information for the purposes of causing harm, recalls infamous foreign interference operations in national media systems. Outcries over fake news, or dubious stories with the trappings of news, have coincided with the introduction of new media technologies that disrupt the publication, distribution and consumption of news -- from the so-called rumour-mongering broadsheets centuries ago to the blogosphere recently. Designating a news organization as fake, or der Lügenpresse, has a darker history, associated with authoritarian regimes or populist bombast diminishing the reputation of 'elite media' and the value of inconvenient truths. In a series of empirical studies, using digital methods and data journalism, the authors inquire into the extent to which social media have enabled the penetration of foreign disinformation operations, the widespread publication and spread of dubious content as well as extreme commentators with considerable followings attacking mainstream media as fake.

Abstract

The richness of social and cultural theory in the humanities offers countless opportunities for using theory-informed concepts in data-based analysis workflows. The contributors to this volume thus encourage further research utilizing out-of-the-box models and approaches to space and place in the field of Digital Humanities. The collection follows the two complementary goals of providing promising conceptualisations of space and place for a broad audience from Digital Humanities, and of presenting current work in Digital Humanities using different conceptualisations of space and place or offering innovative methods for their analysis.

Abstract

What does it mean to digitize a medieval manuscript? This book examines this question by exploring a range of advanced imaging technologies. The author focuses on the relationship between digital technologies and the complex materiality of manuscripts and the human bodies that engage them. The chapters explore imaging technologies, interfaces to present digital surrogates, and limitations to and enhancements through the digital, plus historical photographs. Essential reading for all those involved in manuscript digitization projects in both scholarly and cultural heritage contexts.

Abstract

There is growing awareness about how social media circulate extreme viewpoints and turn up the temperature of public debate. Posts that exhibit agitation garner disproportionate engagement. Within this clamour, fringe sources and viewpoints are mainstreaming, and mainstream media are marginalized. This book takes up the mainstreaming of the fringe and the marginalization of the mainstream. In a cross-platform analysis of Google Web Search, Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, Twitter, Instagram, 4chan and TikTok, we found that hyperpartisan web operators, alternative influencers and ambivalent commentators are in ascendency. The book can be read as a form of platform criticism. It puts on display the current state of information online, noting how social media platforms have taken on the mantle of accidental authorities, privileging their own on-platform performers and at the same time adjudicating between claims of what is considered acceptable discourse.
