Transformative Digital Humanities: Challenges and Opportunities: Digital Research in the Arts and Humanities

Editat de Mary McAleer Balkun, Marta Mestrovic Deyrup
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 dec 2021

Transformative Digital Humanities takes a two-pronged approach to the digital humanities: it examines the distinct kinds of work currently being undertaken in the field, while also addressing current issues in the digital humanities, including sustainability, accessibility, interdisciplinarity, and funding.

With contributions from humanities and LIS scholars based in China, Canada, England, Germany, Spain, and the United States, this collection of case studies provides a framework for readers to develop new projects as well as to see how existing projects might continue to develop over time. This volume also participates in the current digital humanities conversation by bringing forward emerging voices that offer new options for cooperation, by demonstrating how the digital humanities can become a tool for activism, and by illustrating the potential of the digital humanities to reexamine and reconstitute existing canons.

Transformative Digital Humanities considers what sorts of challenges still exist in the field and suggests how they might be addressed. As such, the book will be essential reading for academics and students engaged in the study of information science and digital humanities. It should also be of great interest to practitioners around the globe.

Recenzii

"Transformative Digital Humanities […] comprises thoughtfully curated essays on topics that are currently at the fore of many institutional conversations […] In dismantling traditional norms that have become associated with DH, the volume makes way for new research areas and ideas that may be constructively challenging. […] Each essay is meticulously researched, and substantial bibliographies offer an abundance of material for scholars." -- C. Huffaker, Utica College
