Hi everyone! I am a computer scientist working on linguistics and I defended my PhD two weeks ago.

I've worked on french encyclopedias from the 18th century (the famous Encyclopédie, by Diderot and d'Alembert) and 19th century (far less well-known La Grande Encyclopédie of which I participated in making the first XML-TEI encoding [1]).

I plan to use this account to keep in touch with the community and to publish about my research. Nice to meet you!

Black and white engraving of a mastodon from La Grande Encyclopédie, entry "ELEPHANT" (T15 p.812). It shows a huge dark beast with two massive curved tusks displayed on a pedestal under a large wooden hall. A visitor with a cane and a hat is standing in front of the mastodon.

@indieterminacy I hope so 😊 That's how it felt to me anyway 😊 I had a great time discussing with the jury.

Yeah, I hope I'll be able to interact a bit more : ) And mastodon looked like a decent way to do it. It's great to find you here.
