Ten years, 114 papers, one plot twist: drama research got fancier tools (hi transformers! 🤖) but never broke up with 1970s theory🥸. At #DH2026, @lucagiovannini.bsky.social presented our dive into the DraCor bibliography (2015-2025): what changed, and what stubbornly did not. Slides: plu.sh/decadrama

#CCLS2026 came to a close with a fun tour through Potsdam’s Sanssouci Park. Sans souci means “no worries” or “carefree” — and after two intense days of talks, posters, discussions, and conversations over coffee, we wish exactly that to all participants😎🍹

From the Tagus to the Volga, from Rome to China: how does poetry imagine geography? At #CCLS2026, @tonyamart.bsky.social, @artjomshl.bsky.social & @plechac.bsky.social trace the “from A to B” formula across 6 European poetic corpora. Seems many poets liked the east-west axis: doi.org/10.26083/tud...
