C²DH Innovating & Sharing History

For the C2DH, 2022 was a particularly fruitful and intense year for our ongoing research on Web archives: two year-long projects came to an end, one in partnership with the DataLab of the Bibliothèque nationale de France, entitled Buzz-F, and another with the Canadian Archives Unleashed team, AWAC2, which looked at Web archives related to the COVID-19 crisis. In autumn 2022, the final conference of the WARCnet project (2020-2023) was also held in Aarhus, Denmark. Finally, the HIVI project (A history of online virality) pursued its activities for the second consecutive year.
C2DH historian Valérie Schafer and Niels Brügger, a Professor in Media Studies and Head of the Centre for Internet Studies at Aarhus University in Denmark, spoke to Hanna Siemaszko, the producer of the SciLux podcast on science in Luxembourg, about the challenges of digging into Web archives and online virality.
This podcast was recorded in connection with the 2022 Annual Report of the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C2DH), a University of Luxembourg research centre.

History shapes towns and cities and the people who live in them. Esch-sur-Alzette has an extremely rich, sometimes forgotten history, one that is reflected in its buildings and heritage and above all in the lived experiences of its residents. Thomas Cauvin, head of the “Public History and Outreach” research area, and Joëlla van Donkersgoed, a post-doctoral researcher at the C2DH, spoke to Hanna Siemaszko, the producer of the SciLux podcast on science in Luxembourg, about the challenges of the “HistorEsch” public history project.

The Minett Stories virtual exhibition explores the history and identity of the Minett, the industrial region in southern Luxembourg, in 21 stories. For a century (approx. 1870-1970) the Minett was shaped by iron ore mining and the iron and steel industry. Rapid economic and population growth, urbanisation and labour migration had a major impact on the history of the region, which has also been shaped by economic crises, environmental pollution and precarious housing and living conditions.
C2DH historians Viktoria Boretska and Stefan Krebs and anthropologist Irene Portas Vázquez spoke to Hanna Siemaszko, the producer of the SciLux podcast on science in Luxembourg, about the making of the stories and the challenges of fictionalising history.
This podcast was recorded in connection with the 2022 Annual Report of the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C2DH), a University of Luxembourg research centre.

The exhibition is part of the Remixing Industrial Pasts in the Digital Age (“Remix”) project, in connection with the European Capital of Culture Esch2022.

In all humanities disciplines, scholars find themselves confronted with the rapidly increasing availability of digital resources, new technologies to interrogate and analyse them, and the question of how to engage with these developments. The field of Jewish studies is no exception. The C2DH aims to use the potential of digital technology to foster research in Jewish studies. Various projects have been carried out in recent years, including the launch of the websites #DHJewish and the Luxembourg Memorial of the Shoah, the publication of the book "Jewish Studies in the Digital Age" and a study on the spoliation of Jewish property.
C2DH historians Blandine Landau and Gerben Zaagsma spoke to Hanna Siemaszko, the producer of the SciLux podcast on science in Luxembourg, about their projects and the impact of digital technologies on Jewish studies.
