Description
Debates in the Digital Humanities 2016 explores the dynamic nature of a field in negotiation with its identity, methods, and reach. This collection brings together full-length scholarly essays, blog pieces, conference presentations, and commissioned interviews to examine how digital humanities (DH) can and must change in response to social justice movements and events. The book delves into various aspects of DH, including its application in community college classrooms, feminist studies, queer studies, and black studies. It also examines the movement of interdisciplinary DH work into areas such as history, art history, and archaeology. A special forum on large-scale text mining brings together position statements on a fast-growing area of DH research. By identifying key issues as they unfold and providing a hybrid model of open-access publication, this volume offers a vision of digital humanities as an expanded field with new possibilities and differently structured approaches.
