Produktbeschreibung

"This volume shows what's possible when digital and public humanities meet, offering a truly exciting picture of the most cutting-edge scholarship in the humanities today. As a whole, it provides a rich exploration of the intersections between digital and public humanities that speaks to the breadth of the field-in method, discipline, topic. Individual contributions provide necessary depth through a global, interdisciplinary, and diverse range of voices. The volume will be an invaluable addition to syllabi. Additionally, it will appeal to a wide range of audiences: new and more experienced digital humanities practitioners, humanities scholars interested in integrating digital and public humanities into their research and teaching, practitioners in GLAM fields looking for insights and ideas for engaging audiences, and more."

This handbook brings together recent international scholarship and developments in the interdisciplinary fields of digital and public humanities. Exploring key concepts, theories, practices and debates within both the digital and public humanities, the handbook also assesses how these two areas are increasingly intertwined. Key questions of access, ownership, authorship and representation link the individual sections and contributions. The handbook includes perspectives from the Global South and presents scholarship and practice that engage with a multiplicity of underrepresented "publics," including LGBTQ+ communities, ethnic and linguistic minorities, the incarcerated and those affected by personal or collective trauma.

Anne Schwan is Professor in English at Edinburgh Napier University, UK. She has published on the history and representation of crime and imprisonment.
