Author Description

"Comprising a selection of scholarly essays from some of the field's most recognised and accomplished figures, this collection offers a series of timely interventions into some of the most pressing matters currently faced within the wider digital humanities, issues of perspective, methodology, access, capacity, and sustainability. Compelling anyone with an interest in the digital humanities, be they newcomers or adepts, to reconsider and reimagine the past, present, and future of DH, The Bloomsbury Handbook of Digital Humanities is intuitively divided into five sections: "Perspectives & Polemics", "Methods, Tools & Techniques", "Public Digital Humanities", "Digital Humanities in Practice", and "DH Futures". These sections and the contributions contained within serve as a roadmap through the discipline's myriad formulations, failings, and possibilities. This book is essential reading for scholars and students of the digital humanities, whatever that may be, and whatever DH might become."--
