Abstract

This is a commissioned blog post for ABO Public: An Interactive Forum for Women and the Arts 1640-1830, reviewing my experience on the EEBO-TCP hackfest. This was an event designed to launch the release into the public online domain of over 25,000 texts from the fifteenth to the seventeenth century. The idea of the hackfest was that humanities researchers and scholars would come together with digital researchers and technologists and create – in a day – innovative and imaginative ways of exploring, analysing, and developing this huge corpus.
