Hi! I'm Chiara Martignano,

Based in Rome, Italy.

Current Projects

CoMByN

I work as the digital humanist of the FIS "The construction of Collective Memory in Byzantium: Towards a Network of Byzantine compilation literature across Europe and the Mediterranean" project. I am developing the digital synoptic edition of the Loci Communes and designing the manuscripts catalogue.

EVT (Edition Visualization Technology)

I am part of EVT's development team. I have mostly worked on EVT 2, using AngularJS, to develop new features to optimise the consultation of the critical apparatus.

DSETools

My main independent research project is a catalogue of software tools for digital philology, developed according to the FAIR principles. It allows scholars to identify tools and workflows they can use for their own digital edition projects.
