Um fyrirlesturinn
In this presentation, Dr. Helga Thorson describes a digital humanities project undertaken with students at the University of Victoria in partnership with the “Servitengasse 1938” working group in Vienna. This collaborative endeavor digitally maps the trajectories of the Jewish residents and shopkeepers of the Servitengasse between 1938 and 1945. Serving as a microcosm for understanding the horrors of the Shoah and for gathering the stories of the 426 individuals who lived and worked on the street in March 1938, the completed site sheds light on how one street in one particular neighborhood in Vienna was affected by Nazi terror. This presentation exemplifies how digital humanities can be used effectively as both a research and a teaching tool.
