I’ve been working at the Heidelberg Research Architecture (HRA), Cluster of Excellence “Asia and Europe”, Heidelberg University since 2008. Earlier I coordinated the European Center for Digital Resources in Chinese Studies and co-headed the IT department at the Heidelberg Center for East Asian Studies. I also participated in the research project “Buddhist Stone Scriptures in China” at the Heidelberg Academy of Sciences and Humanities. Among the projects I supervised are the “Chinese Women’s Magazines of the Late Qing and Early Republican Era” and the “Chinese Entertainment Newspapers”, both of which are now part of the follow-up project “Early Chinese Periodicals Online (ECPO)”. I’m interested in TEI for Republican era Chinese newspapers and magazines and am also looking for partners to (semi-)automatically processing image scans of these materials and producing full text.
