Raw Data for the "Reading Kultura from a Distance" project.

<p>These are the datasets extracted from the Polish journal <em>Kultura</em> (1946-1989) which was collected and curated in 2010-2014, for the project <em>Reading Kultura from a Distance</em>, developed by Jessie Labov at the Ohio State University with the help of Ewa Zegler-Poleska and Adam Pruss. There are four distinct datasets, which correspond to the authors, letter writers, funders, and rejected authors of <em>Kultura</em>. Much research was carried out to determine the location of the authors, while the other categories self-identified in the journal itself. These points were also georeferenced and plotted, the results of which can be seen here: https://eurasia.omeka.fas.harvard.edu/exhibits/show/distant-kultura and also in the book by project leader Jessie Labov, <em>Transatlantic Central Europe: Contesting Geography and Redefining Culture Beyond the Nation</em> (CEU Press, 2019).</p>
