Digital Humanities Workshops is the first volume to focus explicitly on the most common and accessible kind of training in digital humanities (DH): workshops. Drawing together the experiences and expertise of dozens of scholars and practitioners from a variety of disciplines and geographical contexts, the chapters in this collection examine the development, deployment, and assessment of a workshop or workshop series. In the first section, "Where?", the authors seek to situate digital humanities workshops within local, regional, and national contexts. The second section, "Who?", guides readers through questions of audience in relation to digital humanities workshops. In the third and final section, "How?", authors explore the mechanics of such workshops. Taken together, the chapters in this volume answer the important question: why are digital humanities workshops so important and what is their present and future role? Digital Humanities Workshops examines a range of digital humanities workshops and highlights audiences, resources, and impact. This volume will appeal to academics, researchers and postgraduate students, as well as professionals working in the DH field.
This history of early modern news focuses on news itself rather than specific material forms. Centering on movement through different media, time, and place, it makes the case for a truly comparative, pan-European history of news. After the Introduction, the second section, News Moves, explores how we think about and research news culture and news communication, demonstrating movement is more important than static forms. The third, News Sings, focuses on news ballads, comparing actors, publics, music, and soundscapes of ballad singing in several European cities, highlighting the central role of immaterial elements, such as sound, music and voice. The fourth, News Counts, argues that seeing news the way a machine might read it—through its metadata—is one way of moving beyond form, allowing us to find surprising commonalities in news cultures which differ greatly in both time and place.
Multilingual Digital Humanities explores the impact of monolingualism—especially Anglocentrism—on digital practices in the humanities and social sciences. The volume explores a wide range of applied contexts, such as digital linguistic injustice, critical digital literacy, digital learning, digital publishing, low-resourced, minoritised or endangered languages in a digital space, and multilingual historical intertextuality. These discussions are situated within wider work on language technologies, language documentation and international (in particular European) language-based infrastructure creation. Drawing on both primary and secondary research, this four-part book features 13 diverse...
"Alternative Historiographies of the Digital Humanities examines the process of history in the narrative of the digital humanities and deconstructs its history as a straight line from the beginnings of humanities computing. By discussing alternatives histories of the digital humanities that address queer gaming, feminist game studies praxis, Cold War military-industrial complex computation, the creation of the environmental humanities, monolingual discontent in DH, the hidden history of DH in English studies, radical media praxis, cultural studies and DH, indigenous futurities, Pacific Rim post-colonial DH, the issue of scale and DH, the radical, indigenous, feminist histories of the digital database, and the possibilities for an antifascist DH, this collection hopes to re-set discussions of the DH straight, white origin myths. Thus, this collection hopes to reexamine the silences in such a straight and white masculinist history and how power comes into play to shape this straight, white DH narrative."--Page 4 of cover
The Routledge Companion to Libraries, Archives, and the Digital Humanities covers a wide range of issues encountered in the world’s libraries and archives as they continue to expand their support of, and direct engagement in, Digital Humanities (DH) research and teaching. In addition to topics related to the practice of librarianship, and to libraries and archives as DH-friendly institutions, we address issues of importance to library and archives workers themselves: labour, sustainability, organisation and infrastructure, and focused professional practices that reflect the increasingly important role of librarians and archivists as active research partners. One of the central motifs of th...
La necesidad de rastrear los orígenes de las Humanidades Digitales y las formas en que éstas modifican las prácticas de nuestras disciplinas se ha vuelto imperante; saber cómo cambia el estudio de la literatura o del arte al usar tecnologías digitales confirma que los modelos que seguimos y desarrollamos tiene validez no sólo desde las hd , también desde la historia del arte o de la edición académica, y que éstas, a su vez, modifican las disciplinas y la forma en que nos enfrentamos a ellas. La importancia de los proyectos de humanidades digitales reside tanto en la contribución que cada uno haga a su campo de estudio –filología, historia del arte, edición–, como en la posib...
¿Cómo se han ido conformando las prácticas de las Humanidades Digitales en América Latina? Nos encontramos colocados al inicio de una posible revisión; es pronto para un análisis consistente de la conformación de las Humanidades Digitales en América Latina. Documentar un acontecimiento en el proceso mismo de su conformación es tarea ardua. Se trata plenamente de una cuestión de política de la producción de saber. Lo que se presenta en este segundo volumen llamado Humanidades Digitales: Lengua, texto, patrimonio y datos, es otro documento para registrar la conformación del campo de las Humanidades Digitales en América Latina. Este libro, impulsado por la RedHD, trata de meter al...
El crecimiento de las humanidades digitales en los últimos 10 años es incuestionable, como se puede ver en el incremento de miembros de la Red de Humanidades Digitales, así como en la cantidad de actividades académicas que se organizan todos los años al respecto. Sin embargo, entre los problemas identificados desde el inicio de la RedHD se encuentran la falta de literatura en español, la invisibilidad del trabajo que se realiza en latitudes en donde el idioma no es el inglés y la necesidad urgente de publicaciones formales que aborden las Humanidades Digitales desde otras perspectivas. Con este libro – Humanidades Digitales: Recepción, institucionalización y crítica– abrimos un...
