It's Week 1 of the semester @fau.de, and I had an amazing time starting my multidimensional analysis course today! It was especially great to have students joining after Register & Variation among Texts that I taught last year! Looking forward to the rest of the semester!
#register #linguistics #MDA

A warm welcome to all students as we begin a new semester at DHSS! Wishing you inspiration, growth, and success in the months ahead!

Big week at the GRK "Literature and the Public Sphere": the second PhD cohort is here — and the DFG has just approved an extra spot!

Who is doing What to Whom? Analyzing Gender Biases in Large Language Models with @katrohrbacher.bsky.social

#DHSS2025 #Languagemodels #Genderbiases

What does it mean to ‘stay’ in a place, and how can sound capture that experience? 🎧 Dr. Dominik Kremer and @andreaswagnr.bsky.social guided us through Tracing Qualities of Stay, exploring voice recordings tied to place and presence.

#DHSS2025 #SoundStudies #Linguistics #PlaceAndSpace

We explored how language shifts across gender, style, and register ✍️ With Dr. Marianna Grachova, we learned how Keyfeature analysis reveals the words and structures that make each variety stand out 🔍

#DHSS2025 #Linguistics #Sociolinguistics #LanguageVariation

What a great week it was!! Very sad that our summer school is almost over but very excited that we end it with a keynote by @mkschumacher.bsky.social 🤩 Mareike talked about corpus compilation and gender analysis in the #DH @dhssfau.bsky.social @dhregensburg.bsky.social

We are truly honoured to have Prof. Mareike Schumacher @mkschumacher.bsky.social with us, delivering her amazing talk on corpus compilation and gender-sensitive analysis.
What a wonderful way to conclude the final day of our school!

#DHSS2025 #DigitalHumanities

The participants of our school have designed a number of graphical abstracts, with just a few glimpses shown here. A creative journey for researchers and future scholars to broaden their skills, discover new ways to visualise their work, and make it more visible and accessible.

✨ Good morning! After yesterday’s wonderful excursion to the Germanisches Nationalmuseum, we’re starting the day with a workshop run by Dr. Sabine Lang @sabinelang.bsky.social, where participants are modeling selected objects in #Wikidata.

#DHSS2025 #DigitalHumanities

Thank you everyone for coming to the #GermanischeNationalmuseum today (despite some serious train delays and rain). I enjoyed it so much and it makes me miss working as a tour guide #dhss2025 @dhssfau.bsky.social

Eight now in our Summer School on Data, Gender and Society @nfdykes.bsky.social is introducing hands on examples of concordance analysis with flexiconc.
