Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatthew Munson is a digital humanities researcher and wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter at Georg-August-Universität Göttingen with 11 years of experience bridging computational methods and historical text scholarship. Trained in theology and religious studies (Loyola College; University of Virginia), he pioneered text-mining and collocation analysis to track semantic drift between the Hebrew Bible, the Septuagint, and the Greek New Testament. At the Göttingen Centre for Digital Humanities he coordinated DARIAH work on Virtual Research Environments, helped develop the TaDiRAH taxonomy, and led international DH summer school programs. His work combines rigorous philological knowledge with practical DH infrastructure design, producing both scholarly outputs and usable community resources. Less obvious: he began this trajectory as a Scholars’ Lab fellow exploring automated methods for ancient texts, which shaped a career-long focus on meaning change across languages and corpora. Based in the Greater Kassel area, he continues to blend academic research, project coordination, and tool development for the humanities.
