Biographie(s) et historiographie(s) dans les cantons de l’Est belges pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Retour sur une expérience d’historiens

Entre 2013 et 2023, un collectif d’historiens a publié une série de six volumes sur l’histoire de la Communauté germanophone de Belgique, entité fédérée dans l’Etat fédéral belge située à la frontière avec l’Allemagne, les Pays-Bas et le Luxembourg (1). Le volume 4, paru en 2019, traite de la période 1919-1945 qui comprend les trois changements de nationalité de 1919-20/1940/1944 du territoire alors connu sous la désignation d’Eupen-Malmedy entre l’Allemagne et la Belgique.

CD-ROMs as connectors in the early development of the Web

CD-ROMs as connectors in the early development of the Web

The contribution of CD-ROMs to the media and technology landscape is often overlooked, although it was highlighted in the fields of creativity (Lessard, 2018) and video gaming (Therrien, 2019). Their role as bridge technology is one aspect that has received little attention, while their impact was significant: CD-ROMs were pivotal connectors facilitating early Internet and Web access (Schafer, 2022).

"Cd-ROMs in Print": Transmediality in Early Digital Culture

"Cd-ROMs in Print": Transmediality in Early Digital Culture

In the late 1980s and early 1990s an era of “new media” opened, full of the promises of multimedia, while databases emerged as the new “symbolic form” (Manovich, 2002), and interactivity turned into a buzzword. Our proposal revisits this history through one “transmedia” and “boundary” object: CD-ROMS in Print books. These catalogs of more than a thousand pages aimed to list, classify, and describe all available CD-ROMs of the time.

One Does Not Simply Access Web Archives”: Challenges Related to Historicizing Online Virality

Mehr Kooperation gewünscht? Überlegungen zu Nutzererwartungen an moderne Archive

The digital age is forcing archives and historical science to abandon their established division of labour. The issue of shaping the documentary tradition and ensuring its reliability brings archivists and historians together.

Les archives du web : du « goût de l’archive » à des cultures historiennes renouvelées ?

Les débats et publications autour des archives du Web concernent de nombreuses disciplines – littérature, art, histoire, information et communication – mais également plusieurs corps de métiers – recherche, bibliothèques, archives, et de manière générale toutes les professions liées à la conservation. Cette richesse et cette communauté d’intérêts montrent à quel point les archives du Web constituent un objet transversal qui suscite des questions qui ne sont pas limitées à des disciplines ou champs professionnels.

What the history of women and computing teaches us

What the history of women and computing teaches us

This paper aims to explore how an entry through the perspective of women and gender has revitalized and still revitalizes the history of computing, STEM, and digital technologies and to what extent this approach also aligns with current IT challenges as well as educational issues. It revisits key themes such as invisibility, intersectionality, embodiment, and inclusiveness, by drawing on significant works from recent decades.

Harlem Shake à la BnF… à la recherche d’un phénomène viral dans les archives du web

Le phénomène du Harlem Shake devient viral au cours du mois de février 2013. Il est remixé et rejoué par des milliers de personnes, notamment en France. Il combine des caractéristiques telles que les dimensions internationales, trans-plateformes, transculturelle et translinguistique des phénomènes viraux, ainsi qu’un caractère à la fois démesuré et éphémère.
