Explore the origins and evolution of a rapidly growing scientific field with Digital Humanities: History and Development. Published by Wiley, this book examines the theoretical and technical influences that shape modern digital humanities. It moves beyond the classic history associated with the Robert Busa project to provide a much broader perspective on how this discipline has formed. Instead of looking at a narrow view that neglects various actors and disciplines, this text offers a comprehensive look at the methods and theories that allow for its current constitution. It addresses fundamental questions about whether the field is truly new and where its roots actually lie. This work is an essential resource for those looking to understand the complex history and the diverse academic influences that continue to drive interest and questions within the digital humanities landscape.
