Out in Evolutionary Human Sciences! With @mikekestemont.bsky.social, @jbcamps.bsky.social, @remcosleiderink.bsky.social & Anne Chao
New work on unseen species models for cult heritage to the question: how many stories were _shared_ between medieval French and Dutch literature?

As a fun experiment, PhD student Nicky Voornevelt bought a set of manuscript fragments at an auction. One piece turned out to be in print.

It's a fragment of the Mainz Catholicon! 😱😱😱 #BookHistory 📚💙 📜 #Fragmentology
Curious about the fascinating Catholicon print? We recommend recent papers by @farleypkatz.bsky.social, advancing credible evidence that Needham's slugs theory must be false... This has serious implications for the dating and attribution of the print! TBC. independent.academia.edu/FarleyKatz

In the earlier keynote, @mikekestemont.bsky.social presented an eco-computational approach to estimate the number of forgotten authors in the (ancient) Greek cultural production. He showed how he used a (bio)statistical model, filled with #TM (Authors/Works) numbers to calculate a minimum figure!

Thx for your generosity! I normally work with something like GEXF, but any raw data I can import into Gephi would be great!
Looks awesome! I have to teach a session on Gephi for philologists soon in Antwerp: any chance you could share the data files for one of these beautiful networks already? (With proper attribution and reference to the book of course!)
