Description

Collaborative Historical Research in the Age of Big Data: Lessons from an Interdisciplinary Project

This book explores the challenges and opportunities of working with existing cultural data in the UK, as part of the largest digital humanities project ever funded in the UK. The project, which brought together a team of researchers, aimed to deepen our understanding of the impact of mechanisation on nineteenth-century Britain.

By working with what was already available, rather than creating new resources, the project team faced complex challenges in establishing and managing a truly multidisciplinary digital humanities project. This book shares the lessons learned from this experience, providing valuable insights for other projects seeking to undertake digital history projects.
