Abstract
The following is a description of the facilities, activities and research projects of the GIRCSE at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore. The Group offers courses on computing in the humanities and assists scholars in their computer-based philological research. We discuss the problems of pre-editing of texts, lemmatization and textual analysis programs. We provide a comprehensive list of the Group's independent and collaborative research projects.
