ABSTRACT

The Digital Humanities (DH) have evolved into a significant force shaping contemporary academic landscapes, prompting both enthusiasm and skepticism. The DH denotes an interdisciplinary domain that amalgamates computational methods and technologies with conventional humanities research and scholarship. This field engages with the utilization of digital tools, techniques, and methodologies to scrutinize, interpret, and present data pertinent to cultural, historical, and linguistic domains. The spectrum of activities within DH is expansive, spanning text analysis, data visualization, digital archiving, and the creation of digital platforms tailored for scholarly inquiry. According to Gold (2012) “Digital Humanities involves the use of computational methods to analyze, model, and represent humanistic phenomena, as well as to explore new questions at the intersection of computing and the disciplines of the humanities”.[1]
