Research Methods for History
Historians have become increasingly sensitive to social and cultural theory since the 1980s, yet the actual methods by which research is carried out in History have been largely taken for granted.Research Methods for History encourages those researching the past to think creatively about the wide range of methods currently in use, to understand how these methods are used and what historical insights they can provide.This updated new edition has been expanded to cover not only sources and methods that are well-established in History, such as archival research, but also those that have developed recently, such as the impact of digital history research.The themes of the different chapters have been selected to reflect new trends in the subject, including landscape studies, material culture and ethics.Every chapter presents new insights and perspectives and will open researchers' minds to the expanding possibilities of historical research.

What is the history of translation technology?
Translation technology has a long history, dating back to ancient times when humans used tools like dictionaries and phrasebooks to aid in translation. In the 20th century, the development of computers and the internet led to the creation of machine translation systems, which used algorithms to automatically translate text. In recent years, advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning have led to the development of more sophisticated translation technologies, such as neural machine translation, which can produce more accurate and natural-sounding translations. Today, translation technology continues to evolve, with the integration of voice recognition and real-time translation capabilities.

Collaboration : A Potential History of Photography
A new, revolutionary history of photography from a stellar team of writers and thinkers that challenges all existing narratives by focusing on the complex collaborations between photographer and subject. Collaboration presents a groundbreaking and multifaceted history of photography which explores photography through the lens of collaboration, challenging the dominant narratives around photographic history and authorship.In a vast, collaborative effort led by five of the great thinkers and practitioners in photography that includes more than 550 photographs and over 80 text contributors, this book breaks apart photography’s ‘single creator’ tradition by bringing to light tangible traces of collaboration – the various relationships, exchanges and interactions which occur between all participants in the event of photography. This book will provide the keys to understanding and decoding the complex politics of seeing.The conditions of collaboration in photography are explored through over 100 photography projects, divided into eight thematic chapters.The photographs from each project are presented non-hierarchically alongside quotes, testimonies, and short texts by guest contributors.These networks of texts and images provide perspective on a vast array of photographic themes, from Araki’s provocative portraits of women to archival files from the Spanish Civil War. Collaboration is not an ultimate account of what photography is, does, or means.Rather, the book is an inspiration for teaching and an open invitation to scholars, activists, photographers and others to practice always with and alongside others and participate actively in this engagement and enquiry.
