Mapping Alcohol Consumption in F. Scott Fitzgerald's "May Day": A Digital Critical Edition

Mapping Alcohol Consumption in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “May Day”: A Digital Critical Edition will be an annotated edition of the 1920 public-domain text of “May Day,” featuring an integrated map, critical apparatus, and sample lesson plans. TEI mark-up of the text facilitates interactive DH assignments for my “Alcohol in/and Modernist Fiction” course.

MySQL database and OpenRefine workflow

Description: In June 2024, I took Harvey Quamen and Jon Bath’s “Databases for Humanists” course at the Digital Humanities Summer Institute. During the week, we covered topics such as database design, MySQL, basic to advanced SQL queries, and (briefly) how to connect to databases with Python or using other methods. While I had some familiarity with these topics already, the course provided me with the opportunity to design and build my own MySQL database from the ground up, which I did using my open access dataset from the Canadian Modernist Magazines Project. (You can read about the CMMP in one of my other posts).

Canadian Modernist Magazines Project

The Canadian Modernist Magazines Project (CMMP) is a digital repository of modernist periodical literature published in Canada (ca. 1900-1960). Led by Principal Investigator Dr. Graham Jensen, the project’s primary aim is to digitize and transcribe a selection of Canadian literary “little magazines” so that they can be read, searched, downloaded, analyzed, and taught. As a repository of Canadian modernist periodicals, the CMMP makes important but difficult-to-access literary texts available to scholars as well as to the broader public. But the CMMP will not simply provide easy access to texts; in its next phase, it will also feature critical introductions of select Canadian modernist magazines, tools for computational analysis of the transcribed texts, sample lesson plans, and relevant syllabi.
