Marie Ndiaye structures her piece of 'Three Strong Women' as a music composition whose three parts are connected by a recurring theme: the internal strength that the three protagonists, African-American women, demonstrate challenged with life's hardships. It is essential for understanding this triptych, around which the text is articulated. The stories are subtly intertwined, with a series of elements fitting like pieces of a puzzle at a narrative and symbolic level, uniting these short novels into a complex whole.

Online and distant forms of education have been reshaping traditional modes of higher education. Technologies are developing rapidly and provoke education to transform and rethink the possibilities of learning from every location. One of the software solutions, designed for classroom use, is the virtual classroom. As its name suggests, it is a virtual learning ‘space’ that aims at providing all the components of a traditional learning environment. The following article briefly explains the innovative functions of a virtual classroom and gives an example of its usage in one particular case study in order to present the advantages and disadvantages of the software for the field of the humanities and speculate on its possible implementation in university courses. The synchronous education aspect of a virtual classroom is emphasized as well as other functions that can be actively used both by students and a tutor in university taught courses. The fact that a virtual classroom can be implemented in LMS (learning management system) such as Moodle or Schoology provides a good perspective for distant and online forms of education. The example of a virtual session designed as a ‘lecture’ is only one of the many possibilities a tutor can engage students’ attention and focus on the practical aspect of a degree in the field of the humanities.

The author states that digital humanities is more akin to a common methodological outlook than an investment in any one specific set of texts or even technologies. He says that we could attempt to refine this “outlook” quantitatively, using some of the very tools and techniques digital humanities has pioneered, or could choose to explore the question qualitatively, by examining sets of projects from self-identified digital humanities centers. M. Kirschenbaum insists that digital humanities is also a social undertaking. It harbors networks of people who have been working together, sharing research, arguing, competing, and collaborating for many years. He points out half a dozen reasons why English departments have historically been hospitable settings for this kind of work and emphasizes that digital humanities, which began as a term of consensus among a relatively small group of researchers, is now backed on a growing number of campuses by a level of funding, infrastructure, and administrative commitments that would have been unthinkable even a decade ago.

“Digitale Geisteswissenschaften: Zentren und Peripherien”. This paper explores a history of humanities computing over the past decade as embodied in or represented by A Companion to Digital Humanities (first published in 2004), methodologically, theoretically, and in terms of community practice. It explores digital humanities as an emerging discipline through changes in technology, as well as through evolving conceptions of the field, particularly through the lens of literary studies and new media. The article also explores how the field’s major conference Digital Humanities, but previously titled the Joint International Conference of the Association for Computers and the Humanities and the Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing (ACH/ALLC), reflects these changes, through not only the themes presented in conference papers, but in the change of the title of the conference itself.

Whether can computer analysis be perceived as a healing tool against the limitations of traditional analysis, and how does it help us to go deep in some of the problems of stylistics and literary theory; what type of model studies and methods does it offer; what does it say about the construction of the text and how does all this affect the analysis and interpretation procedures?

According to Turing, there is a basic link between language and robots. Instructions are probably entered into a specific mediator, but they are purely theoretical and rather exist in the world of codes than in any concrete form. This world of codes is the place where humans and robots inevitably meet each other. There humans are robots to the highest degree, and robots are to the highest degree humans. Based on this formula, the text examines connections between linguistics and robotic poetics.

The paper illustrates by means of two sets of case studies, one related to information extraction and one related to concept change (Section 4), possibilities and issues that are involved in the use of Computational Linguistics methods in the area of Digital Humanities, with a particular focus on evaluation. It provides to both communities, i.e., computational linguists and digital humanists, a set of best practices, or guidelines, on the cross-fertilisation of different methodologies and area of study.

The topic of the article is the concept of digital competence, which is described through criteria and indicators presented by the Framework for Understanding and Development of Digital Competence in Europe. A functional solution to the problem of smart use of information technologies is sought. We defend the understanding that the education systems in secondary schools and universities have to be changed and reformed according to the paradigm set by new technologies. The digital competence self-assessment matrix is examined to answer the question if this type of competence should be taught.

Bilingual corpora in language education and research offer a unique instrument for discovering languages logical sets and translation techniques both in the original and the target language systems. They provide today’s learners with a means for individual exploration and acquiring of linguistic knowledge with no human mediators like e.g. teachers. That is one of the goals of building a parallel bilingual corpus of Bulgarian translations of Roman authors and texts as a depiction of a peculiar local reception of antiquity and as a means for enhancing linguistic and literary analyses. The paper confines to the account of few case studies, provided by aligned bilingual corpora and computer-assisted analyses, and intertwines with some issues about the dynamic and changing conditions and challenges in education and research in present days.

In his book The Obsolescence of Humankind (1956), Gunter Anders speaks of the Promethean shame of the modern man that he is not at the height of the things he invented himself. At the heart of this shame stands the humiliating feeling that unlike a machine, the human being is an accidental, incomplete result of a blind, unpredictable, incalculable and uncontrollable process of conception and birth, that unlike machines, he is born, not produced. Desiring to imitate the technical tools, the modern man sets himself ever higher goals, becoming subject to a specific engineering whose ultimate goal is to transform tne man into a machine. The article еxamines this process of eliminating the human from the cybernetics through the algorithmic governmentality to the biotechnical enhancement.

The paper explores the notion of virtuality in William Gibson’s latest sci-fi novel “The Peripheral” in terms of its relation to the concepts of the digital and the real. The body is thus used as a medium the purpose of which is to negotiate their possible theoretical differences. The article also explores the pervasive role of the police authority in the novel’s universum considering it a part of the established dynamic.

The aim of the paper is to present some humourous texts, which are shared in Facebook, the most widespread social media in Bulgaria at the moment. These funny messages are often re-posted by some users both to make them more popular and to amuse the others. The investigation shows that the humour production in the excerpted corpus is mostly based on the polysemy and homonymy. The play between more than one meanings of a word, the ambiguity between some possible interpretations is a source of mirth. As the laugh has the positive effect on people, one may assume that the consequence of such a sharing is similar.

The glass age is flourishing in the architecture industry. The role of glass has evolved and strengthened over the years to make it one of the most important building materials for humanity. The emergence of different glass processing techniques is expanding the capabilities and the application of the material in the field of architecture and design in the context of digital humanities. Cultural heritage finds its application in modern times by being transmitted through digitalisation on glass media. Permanent works of art, symbols of antiquity and classical texts are displayed on glass by the method of image transfer. The transparent building material has virtually unlimited aesthetic capabilities, combined with exceptional features. In architecture, serigraphic glass in the context of digital humanities is used for windows and showcases, facade coatings, individual architectural details. In the interior, photo-transmitted image glass is used for partitions, glass floors, stairs, roof glazing and glass bricks. The natural simplistic visual access to classical works by mean of digital instruments determines their immediate application as social and psychological keys for communication in the field of design and architecture.

This text has a chapter about “The boot in the Bulgarian literary fashion” – a research of Daria Karapetkova in which she gives models of criticising and analising Italian literature’s translations into Bulgarian, made from 1878 to 1989. She describes how they were accepted in Bulgaria. The main subject of the text is in the chapter, where two of Bulgarian translations of “Alice’s adventures in Wonderland” are presented. Some passages are selected and put together, and linguistic approaches in them are compared. The reception of two translations is commented on the base of the previously mentioned models.
