A visionary report on the revitalization of the liberal arts tradition in the electronically inflected, design-driven, multimedia language of the twenty-first century.,Digital_Humanities, is a compact, game-changing report on the state of contemporary knowledge production. Answering the question "What, is, digital humanities?," it provides an in-depth examination of an emerging field. This collaboratively authored and visually compelling volume explores methodologies and techniques unfamiliar to traditional modes of humanistic inquiry--including geospatial analysis, data mining, corpus linguistics, visualization, and simulation--to show their relevance for contemporary culture. Written by five leading practitioner-theorists whose varied backgrounds embody the intellectual and creative diversity of the field, ,Digital_Humanities, is a vision statement for the future, an invitation to engage, and a critical tool for understanding the shape of new scholarship.
