Patricia Sieber, in collaboration with Marjorie Chan (DEALL), Maria Palazzi (Design/ACCAD), and Leigh Bonds (University Libraries), won support from the A&H Large Grant Program for the development of a prototype for a digital resource center called "The Digital Chinese Theater Collaborative." The project's aims are twofold. For one, as the first curated site on the aesthetics and global impact of traditional Chinese musical theater, it will serve as a research and teaching companion to Sieber's co-edited volumes How To Read Chinese Drama: A Guided Anthology (Columbia University Press, forthcoming 2021) and How To Read Chinese Drama: A Language Companion (under advance agreement with Columbia University Press). For another, the project will explore how participatory design methods can mobilize DEI values for the presentation of complex intercultural content, while developing a model for interdisciplinary collaboration in the Digital Humanities more generally.
