立命館大学アート・リサーチセンターでは、文部科学省国際共同利用共同研究拠点の研究支援活動の一環として、下記の通りARC古典籍ポータル・データ・ベース、ならびに翻刻システムを使った古文献の解読講習会・錬成講座、ならびにくずし字文献プロジェクトの支援を実施しております。
好評により、この度、第2回目の講習会を実施する運びとなりました。前回、残念ながら抽選に漏れた方はこの機会に是非ご参加ください。
この講習は前期・後期にわけ、前期は翻刻の基礎知識とシステム利用方法に重点をおいた講習を実施し、前期だけである程度読めるようにすることを目標としています。（今回は前期の再募集となります）
後期は、初級・中級レベルの方々が、自分が翻刻したい作品を選んで翻刻していきます。翻刻した本文は、翻刻システムを通じて、熟練のサポーターが添削・指導します。
また、特定のテーマを持った研究プロジェクトとして翻刻を進められる場合も、使用方法を説明の上、システムを利用してもらえます。いずれも参加費無料です。

The Art Research Center (ARC), Ritsumeikan University, held a Joint Digital Archiving Technical Workshop with the Sainsbury Institute for the Study of Japanese Arts and Cultures (SISJAC) and the Sainsbury Centre, University of East Anglia, United Kingdom, on Digitizing Hanging Scrolls.The first of a bilingual video series, this workshop served as a prototype for providing cross-cultural online training to young researchers in various skills and methods of digital-archiving Japanese artworks while promoting research exchange between Japan and the UK.
Via a live stream, Professor Ryo Akama, College of Letters, Ritsumeikan University, explained step-by-step how to master the skill of digital archiving with Japanese hanging scrolls as a practical example.
From the set-up of the shooting location and adjusting the lighting to advising on handling the artworks, taking photographs effectively, and recommending various equipment and accessories, Professor Akama led through the entire process of digital-archiving hanging scrolls, followed by a Q&A session.While Japanese graduate students at the venue obtained hands-on experience in executing a digital archiving project independently, the photographs taken were shared immediately with the UK counterparts to discuss the quality and accuracy of the results under the guidance of Professor Akama.
In line with the ARC's mission to disseminate know-how in digital-archiving Japanese art collections worldwide, the workshop video will serve as an educational resource and reference material for future digitization projects.
This project is funded by the International Joint Digital Archiving Center for Japanese Art and Culture (ARC-iJAC) and is part of SISJAC's Digital Japan Project.

［イベント情報］May 14, 2021(Fri)Accredited by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) as the International Joint Digital Archiving Center for Japanese Art and Culture (ARC-iJAC) in 2019, the Art Research Center at Ritsumeikan University is a leading hub for international joint research in Japanese art and culture with a focus on Digital Humanities.
As part of the ARC-iJAC research support activities, we are pleased to announce that we are going to hold a workshop and training course on deciphering early Japanese books written in Japanese cursive script (kuzushiji) using the ARC's Early Japanese Book Portal Database and transcription system, as well as to support projects aiming at deciphering early Japanese books.
The training course will be divided into the first and the second semester. The first semester will be focusing on basic knowledge of transcription and how to use the system, to enable students to obtain reading skills to some extent.
In the second semester, students at beginner and intermediate levels will transcribe literary works of their choice. Experienced staff will check the transcribed text and provide guidance through the system.
Furthermore, if you would like to use the transcription system as part of a research project with a specific theme, you are free to use the system after receiving instructions on how to use it.
All training is provided free of charge.
■ Registration
If you are interested in participating in our training course, please register by filling in our application form. (Applications will be closed when the maximum capacity is reached.)
Phase 1: Training Course for Beginners and Intermediate Levels
This is a training course for deciphering kuzushiji using the ARC transcription system. It is slightly different from other kuzushiji courses that teach you how to read as you will train your ability to decipher the script while reading by yourself.
Details of Implementation:
1. How to use the ARC transcription system + training using the system
2. Date and time: May 14 (Fri), May 28 (Fri), June 18 (Fri), 2021 / Session A (starts at 9:00 JST), Session B (starts at 21:00 JST) ⇒ Each session will last for 90 minutes.
3. Number of participants: 8 per session (Those who will start at the 3rd phase of the project will be accepted separately.)
4. Target group: Beginners to intermediate learners who want to be able to transcribe early Japanese books by themselves.
5. Materials for the beginner to intermediate level will be provided by the organizer.
⇒ Held online via Zoom using the ARC Early Japanese Book Portal DB (with transcription and support system)
※You may also sign up if you would like to learn how to use the system to start from Phase 3 immediately.
Phase 2: Hands-on Experience in the Transcription System for Beginners and Intermediate Level
Participants will select the literary works they wish to decipher individually and carry out the transcription using the ARC transcription system. Results will be corrected by our experienced staff.
Furthermore, we will provide answers for undeciphered characters using the ARC transcription guidance function.
Participants will be able to proceed with the reading while receiving feedback and suggestions.
Details of Implementation:
1. Please participate in Phase 1 to understand how to use the system.
2. Please register for an individual project to start with.
3. Implementation period: From late September 2021 to March 2022
4. Number of participants: Approximately 5, on an individual or group basis
5. Target group: Those who have attended Phase 1 of the course
⇒ After a general meeting via Zoom in late September, transcription and correction will be carried out using the ARC Early Japanese Book Portal DB.
Phase 3: Research Project-based Usage
A research group led by a researcher who is already able to read kuzushiji to some extent can proceed with the transcription for a specific purpose.
In addition to the ARC transcription system, transcription support system, search function for transcribed text (display of search results with context) and the storage system for modern translations that are currently in operation, a comprehensive digital text utilization system will be available, including functions for annotating and translating texts that have been created (in preparation for full-scale operation starting from fall 2021).
Details of Implementation:
1. In Phase 1, you can start your project after receiving training on how to use our system.
2. For any questions and concerns about the system, support is available from the Technical Support Board of the International Joint Digital Archiving Center for Japanese Art and Culture (ARC-iJAC).
3. Implementation period: From June 2021 onwards
4. To start with, please register for the project category D. International Joint Research to Utilize the Center's Facilities and Equipment of the ARC-iJAC.
5. Target group: Anyone whose project comprises a large amount of material to be transcribed and who wishes to create a text of the transcription in the ARC portal database is welcome to participate.
In charge of the training course: Ryo Akama and Nozomu Ataka
