HASTAC 2019: Silent No More – Using Text Mining and Social Networks to Decolonize the History of Algerian Women

Posted in Digital Humanities, and Research

This project seeks to decolonize knowledge about Algeria, as well as the archive by repurposing digital tools to surface the most marginalized voices and experiences. In combination, text mining, close reading, and network analysis enable us to uncover the untold stories of both exceptional and ordinary women who lived between 1567 and 1837, the period in which this region was an Ottoman territory.
