CaSTA will bring together Computer Scientists and Humanities Computing researchers to share their work on the central issues driving current scholarly research on the linguistic, visual, and aural manifestations of text.

The conference will also offer a series of pre-conference workshops, presentations based on peer reviewed papers, keynote talks, and a closing discussion on research questions of common interest to Humanists, Computer and information scientists.
