Mapping the Occupational Data for a 17th Century English Village with Steve Hindle

You are invited to a lab talk by our own Steve Hindle and his collaborator, Matthew Enger, on Friday, November 3, at 2:00 PM in the Busch Student Center (room 256) on the SLU campus. Light snacks and refreshments will be provided.

Steve and Matthew will discuss a fascinating new project “Mapping the Occupational Data for a 17th Century English Village.” This project is connected to Steve’s wonderful new book, The Social Topography of a Rural Community.

The Spatial Humanities Working Group is a cohort of humanities scholars with a shared interest in geospatial technologies.  Rather than formal presentations, these lab talks are designed to be engaged conversations about work in progress.  They provide participants with an opportunity to share the possibilities and challenges of their projects as they take form, and to receive feedback from colleagues in a broad range of humanities fields.  These gatherings do not require any formal background in computing.  We welcome everyone with an interest in the intersection of space and humanistic research.
