Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing
[Close Print-Friendly Version]
The Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing was founded in 1973 with the purpose of supporting the application of computing in the study of language and literature. As the range of available and relevant computing techniques in the humanities has increased, the interests of the Association's members have necessarily broadened, to encompass not only text analysis and language corpora, but also image processing and electronic editions. The ALLC's membership is international, is drawn from across the humanities disciplines, and includes students and established scholars alike.
Membership of the Association is by subscription to its journal, Literary and Linguistic Computing, published by Oxford University Press.
Each year the Association co-sponsors a major conference, in collaboration with the Association for Computers and the Humanities. The conferences alternate between Europe and North America. The 2008 conference will take place at the the University of Oulu, Finland.
