Abstract

After a detailed conceptual history of Computational Humanities and Computational Theology, volume 1 offers an introduction to the diverse research practices in the Digital Humanities. Well-known figures from the Digital Humanities community shed light on the different objects of investigation in this field (text – image – audio – video), before looking at different possibilities of analysis using the medium of "text" as an example. However, the new methods are also accompanied by new dissemination practices. A detailed section is therefore devoted to these.
