About the Author
Susan Schreibman is Professor of Digital Humanities and Director of An Foras Feasa, the Institute for Research in Irish Historical & Cultural Traditions at NUI Maynooth. Her research in the digital humanities ranges from text encoding and the creation of digital scholarly editions, to more recent interests in virtual worlds and data mining. She is the co-editor of A Companion to Digital Literary Studies (with Ray Siemens, Wiley Blackwell, 2007), and the founding editor of several web-based projects, including Letters of 1916 (hhtp://letters1916.ie), The Thomas MacGreevy Archive (http://macgreevy.org), Irish Resources in the Humanities (hhtp://irith.org), and The Versioning Machine (http://v-machine.org), a tool to edit and visualize multiple versions of deeply-encoded text.
Ray Siemens is Canada Research Chair in Humanities Computing and Distinguished Professor in the Faculty of Humanities at the University of Victoria. In 2014 he received the Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations’ Antonio Zampolli Prize for outstanding scholarly achievement in humanities computing. Dr. Siemens has published numerous articles on the intersection of literary studies and computational methods and is the co-editor of A Companion to Digital Literary Studies (with Susan Schreibman, Wiley Blackwell, 2007) and Literary Studies in the Digital Age: An Evolving Anthology (with Kenneth M.
