We have mapped the gathering places of the Waldensian “house churches”, called “synagogues” by the inquisitors, on the basis of the rich trial of Antonio Galosna.
DISSINET has published a map of Waldensian gathering places, with an accompanying brief article. You can read it in the Zenodo repository.

The Johannes Amos Commenius OP project “Beyond Security: Role of Conflict in Resilience-Building” invites doctoral, postdoctoral or senior researchers to apply for 3–8‑month salaried visiting stay, focused on the semantic annotation and computational analysis of hate speech in medieval antiheretical literature.
Our new article published in Digital Scholarship in the Humanities uses the trial record of Bernard-Oth of Niort and his family to demonstrate the benefits of Computer-Assisted Semantic Text Modelling (CASTEMO), a custom approach that not only captures informational content but also its discursive and contextual embedding.
