Profile
Current position
Rens Bod (rens.bod@gmail.com) is professor of Digital Humanities and History of Humanities, and a director of the Vossius Center for the History of Humanities and Sciences. He investigates the humanities from both computational and historical perspectives. He currently serves as president of the Society for the History of the Humanities, and is a member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW), the Royal Holland Society of Sciences and Humanities (KHMW) and of the Society for the Dutch Letters (MNL). He is also the founder of WOinActie, an action group that strives for properly funded and democratic universities. Bod is a recipient of an advanced research fellowship (UK), a personal academy fellowship (KNAW), a personal VIDI fellowship and a personal VICI fellowship (1.5 MEuro, NWO).
Bod is the author of the first historical overview of the humanities from Antiquity to the present: A New History of the Humanities (translated from the Dutch "De Vergeten Wetenschappen"). The book has appeared in seven translations, and was voted as best science book of 2011 by Kennislink and as one of the 25 books on science you "must have read" by NRC Handelsblad. The book has been reviewed by over 50 journals and newspapers and is acclaimed as "an extraordinarily ambitious undertaking ... the first ever history of its kind" (Times Literary Supplement) and "Bod takes the humanities back to their rightful place in the family tree of science."
Rens Bod has also published an Open Access monograph on the general history of knowledge disciplines, World of Patterns: A Global History of Knowledge, which explores the search for patterns and underlying principles in 20 disciplines from 5 continents across the sciences, social sciences and the humanities. The book was nominated for the Libris History Prize and has been translated into six languages.
Bod's most recent book is a world history of the meaning of life, which is currently being translated into English as Why Am I Here? A World History of the Search for Meaning.
Bod's earlier work focused on (computational) linguistics, for example his seminal work on a natural language processing model that creates rule-like behavior without rules -- see his monograph Beyond Grammar: An Experience-Based Theory of Language.
Bod's computational work also covers computational musicology, digital aesthetics and computational literary studies. In the field of digital humanities, he coordinated several public-private partnerships in the humanities. He is one of the main architects of the Data-Oriented Parsing model, a general machine learning technique which has been applied to language, music, vision and reasoning.
Bod is a founding editor of the journal History of Humanities and the initiator of the conference series The Making of the Humanities. His books include Beyond Grammar (1998), Probabilistic Linguistics (2003), Data-Oriented Parsing (2003) and De Vergeten Wetenschappen (The Forgotten Sciences) (2010), and he co-edited three volumes on the comparative history of the humanities, The Making of the Humanities I, II and III (2010, 2012, 2014).
Our multi-volume work The Making of the Humanities is now freely available.

"monumental and expansively illustrated […] the three-volume history edited by Rens Bod, Jaap Maat, and Thijs Weststeijn, The Making of the Humanities, [is] a massive undertaking that documents with painstaking subtlety and detail the difficult transitions from the early modern to the modern period in the reformation of the European ratio studiorum of the arts, humanities, and natural sciences." Robert Davis in http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/edth.12138/full
"A must-read for anyone interested in the history of a broad range of the humanities. It combines case studies of great historical precision with methodological considerations of historical epistemologies, with the explicit aim of matching the work done in the history of science with equivalent historical epistemologies of the various humanistic disciplines”, Reviewed in Isis, by Katherine Arens:

About Me
Many people consider me a Dutchman, though I lived for several years in Italy where I received excellent education not only in the exact sciences but also in the humanities. Despite much criticism on the Italian educational system, I think it is one of the best in the world. It gave me a humanist background on which I can still build today.
I've always known that I wanted to become a 'scientist', yet I did not always know in what science. At the age of 10, I was convinced to become an astronomer. I went to several astronomical summer-schools at a very young age, and published my first paper at the age of 15. For some time around the age of 16, I thought to become a philosopher, but then turned to astronomy again. I studied Astrophysics at the University of Utrecht, next moved to the University of Rome (La Sapienza) where I studied Letters and Mathematics. Finally, I thought that the real challenges lie in the field of Artificial Intelligence, in particular Computational Linguistics, which I studied in Amsterdam, where I also received my PhD. After having been at the University of Leeds, at Xerox PARC (as a consultant), I became full professor in Artificial Intelligence at the University of St Andrews in 2005, and a VICI-laureate at the University of Amsterdam in 2007 to which as I moved in 2008 as full professor in Computational and Digital Humanities. In 2017 I founded WOinActie, an action group that aims to achieve appropriate funding for Dutch universities.
My main interests are in computational models of human cognition, in particular of language, music and reasoning, but I have also major interests in the history of science and humanities. I have worked for several years on the Data-Oriented Parsing model which learns how to process new input by combining fragments from previous input. This model creates rule-like behavior without rules, and has been applied to a variety of modalities, such as language, music, vision and reasoning. During the last few years I also started to work on the history of the humanities, which turns out to be a goldmine when viewed from a comparative, worldwide perspective. There appears to be a unbroken tradition in the humanities from Antiquity onwards that can best be described as a quest for explanatory principles and empirical patterns (in linguistics, philology, art theory, music theory, historiography, etc). I published a full monograph on the longue durée history of the humanities of which the English translation appeared in 2013 with Oxford. I also edited several books in this field. In 2019, I published an even more ambitious monograph on the history of all knowledge disciplines from a multicentric perspective covering five different continents and six thousand years. I am currently recovering from the effort.
I live with Daniela. We wrote, together with our friend Sergio, a book on the architectural history of Amsterdam (my sole publication in Italian, apart from some translations of my favorite author Nescio into Italian). Besides having a good time with Daniela, my son Livio, my family members and my friends, one of the things I enjoy most, is, playing the piano and the theremin. I also enjoy chance photography and other aleatoric art. You can often see me walking around shopping malls with my camera randomly taking thousands of pictures.
On a more personal note, I am known as an extremely talkative person. Daniela once proposed that my first name "Rens" is an acronym for "Raramente E' Nel Silenzio", that is, "Rarely is he in silence".
