february 20 2012 in bibliography 5 comments a blog bibliography a comment of gavin s in this post prompted me to reconsider for the umpteenth time how best to manage bibliographic references that we still have publishers printing giant bibliographies in hard copy is a bit obscene given how most of our bib info now starts out comes from digital sources in the first place and most of it ends up digital as well for years many of us have been using computers to manage our bibs at the least a word document or maybe excel but hopefully something a bit more sophisticated like a database or dedicated bibliographic software i learned endnote from my mother back in 1988 ok actually i had to learn it in order to teach her which was difficult when high school senior has no idea why anyone would want to keep track of all that data in the first place then in grad school i migrated to a self designed monstrosity in ms access back in 2001 or so see here for the reasons when i was a postdoc at george mason i played around with the zotero add in for firefox but had issues e g constant error messages on startup not to mention the question of how to coordinate between access and zotero plus zotero s ability to download records from online catalogs is great except when it can t or at least couldn t for several of my libraries and it doesn t help that most new records needing entry are single book chapters which have or had no separate online records so i ve stuck with my access bib database 35 000 publications thus far and another 40 000 records for primary sources but that s another matter more and more though i m wishing i had my huge database available everywhere accessible on my desktop laptop ipad in my home office in my den in my work office in the classroom in the library at a conference in the archives plus it gets harder and harder to coordinate the various files even when splitting the database into back and front ends keeping the versions compatible every time you upgrade etc now that the age of the cloud has clearly arrived whether it be icloud or dropbox or zotero online or what have you it seems like it might be possible to do away with this hassle add to this the new blog my ultra portable ipad and the fact that i m also finally getting back into doing archive research a month long trip to england in may along with some shorter jaunts elsewhere and i m wondering whether now is the time to change while i still have time left on my sabbatical the key is to make sure that i m not losing a lot of the functionality i built into my access database as i described on my website mentioned above as concerns the blog the question is whether there would be interest in creating some kind of online group bibliography obviously i ve posted all sorts of citations throughout the blog and several commenters have kindly offered their own references i have created and shared google books libraries bookshelves with my students which has the advantage of allowing full text searchability it would be easy enough to post the link to some of those here but perhaps we might like to create a more general group bibliography of ememh if there was interest in this i might use it as an excuse to convert my own bib at the same time so for gavin specifically or anyone else who knows i d appreciate thoughts on how the skulking blog might create an online group bibliography it looks like zotero online might be an option but i have a few questions about how the shared zotero groups libraries work can you link title records to google books either as a link or actually embed the pdfs are the pdfs themselves actually viewable online maybe it requires a login since clicking on gavin s pdf links didn t do anything for me would it be possible to link to other people s libraries or otherwise share duplicate records would each user be able to keep their own library or just rely on the collective library how easy is it to backup or protect the records from accidental intentional deletion is there a way to limit notes tags to specific users or is everything editable by anyone will erik and i get in a fight over whether to use the tag austria vs house of habsburg any group effort could quickly descend into chaos without some vocabulary control it looks like there s probably a certain amount of storage free and then you pay for an upgrade so presumably the number of pdfs storable online would be limited in any case i also don t know if there would be any copyright issues sharing pdfs to everyone even if you don t have any advice about how to do it let me know if you would be interested in developing some kind of shared online bibliography and what you would like that to look like my outrageously complicated bibliography database ms access as a general principle i still want to control my own copy on my own machine in case the internet connection goes down the hosting company goes out of business or decides to delete the data etc i d suggest everyone do the same particularly if your job consists of doing research february 19 2012 in resources 2 comments more 18c periodicals adam matthew digital has scanned in a series of 18c periodicals mostly 1720 and later that include both images and double keyed transcriptions i e searchable with excellent accuracy the eighteenth century journals portal draws from the holdings of the bodleian cambridge university the british library and the harry ransom center at ut austin it claims that it avoids duplication of what s in the burney online collection after a perusal of the titles i can report that it has fewer straight news papers than burney at least for the first decade of the century but more thematic periodicals including a variety of women s journals if you re looking for mid to late 18c periodical publications you might want to check it out if you work at a university even as faculty it s relatively easy to get a free trial no downloading images with the trial though but you can access the transcriptions and might even be able to figure out a way to copy a few snippets of text hint hint present state of europe it s at http www amdigital co uk collections eighteenth century journals portal aspx february 18 2012 in bibliography research 5 comments war horses i still have a week before my vacation in the caymans and the chapter is due but since so many seem to be interested in cavalry i might as well make a dedicated post to it previous discussion took off in the face of battle post about halfway through the comments i m far from an expert on cavalry and given how few secondary sources there are dedicated to it it looks like i m not alone so what interests me would be if we could get a better sense of the parameters of early modern cavalry i e figure out what exactly we know about it i m happy to focus for the time being on tactics but only because it looks like a fair number of people are interested i could do a separate post for discussion of cavalry operations if there s interest some future series of posts will be dedicated to operational matters things that i would love to see in the discussion read more february 15 2012 in admin 4 comments update the discussion on cavalry continues in the face of battle post i need to really shift into writing mode for the next two weeks and then it s a week vacation but i ll try to post once a week until i can get back on a regular schedule in early march in the next week or so i will try to put up a new post to harness the unleashed energies of this horde of charging horses logistics will have to wait till march i m afraid in the meantime two points of possible interest first i assume i m not the only one to have seen the debut of the us history channel s full metal jousting in case you are interested in a competitive reality tv series based on winning a modern jousting tournament it may be your cup o tea i m sure we could probably bribe the network into crashing horses into one another if we came up with enough money second a blog written by a medieval reenactor sca has recently written a couple of posts on knightly combat in the late middle ages and renaissance period that might be of interest to the group will mclean s a commonplace book perhaps in the future we should accumulate as many descriptions of early modern cavalry combat as we can to get a better sense of what cavalry tactics did and didn t include february 11 2012 in research 10 comments military strategy matrix since i ve promised it a couple of times already in various comments here is the matrix i made several years ago to illustrate to my students the variety of methods which military forces might use to achieve their strategic objectives my first exposure to the idea of different types of war came in my first ohio state course with joe guilmartin where he talked about wars of annihilation attrition economic attrition and guerrilla warfare i think those were the categories he mentioned i found this intriguing and have since kept track of various military strategies i ve encountered over the years since i insist on making everything much more complicated than it probably should be here is the more detailed chart i created military strategy matrix i don t know of standard terms for these concepts so the column headings aren t particularly descriptive i also didn t really know how else to categorize the annihilation attrition divide so i m not particularly satisfied with that division in part because i m not sure most belligerents would intentionally choose an attritional strategy in the first place i tried to organize each column by starting at the top with the most clearly military target and then gradually shade into civilian targets as you go down the column i also tried to start with the most tangible target at the top and then shade into less tangible aspects such as morale food etc there s a fair amount of repetition in some cells in the last two columns which might indicate that there s a more efficient way to organize the matrix of course any belligerent is free to choose one or more of these strategies and they might vary across the course of a war as well feel free to comment on the chart any questions mistakes etc i m working on variations on this chart including a more straightforward listing of the different military strategies in the comments section of other posts we ve been discussing how this relates to the means vs goals the reality of a war vs what the belligerents might want etc note this image follows the copyright

academic e self publishing an article in the chronicle of higher education arguing about the dangers of humanities academics self publishing their research or maybe it s just about e publishing it s not really clear http chronicle com article how not to reform humanities 130675 argues that pre publication peer review through publishers stables of experts is the only way to assess quality and that we shouldn t water down dissertations not sure exactly how this is related and that the sciences won t take the humanities seriously if we e publish actually he conflates the process of e publishing with revising the dissertation process arguing that a watered down dissertation won t be taken seriously by the sciences i suppose these are arguments being made by the same people but they are hardly dependent on one another he starts by saying that e publishing isn t as rigorous but then turns to the sciences as authority for whether to reform the humanities dissertation or not but if the sciences should be our model for academic research wait why should they again maybe we should worry about not e publishing given the extent to which scientific research is published online these days confused needless to say there are already a few comments old guard vs young turks or defenders of academic standards vs lazy young uns who don t understand how the world works the debate continues still working on my own take which becomes more ambivalent the more i think about it so my eventual post will probably be framed in terms of the things that would be required for digital self publishing to work for an academic historian today older posts search for recent posts world of the siege for sale august 15 2019 cleaning text with python may 27 2019 sabbatical in the rear view
