The application of new computational techniques and visualisation
technologies in the Arts and Humanities are resulting in fresh
approaches and methodologies for the study of new and traditional
corpora. This 'computational turn' takes the methods and techniques
from computer science to create innovative means of close and
distant reading. This book discusses the implications and
applications of 'Digital Humanities' and the questions raised when
using algorithmic techniques. Key researchers in the field provide
a comprehensive introduction to important debates surrounding
issues such as the contrast between narrative versus database,
pattern-matching versus hermeneutics, and the statistical paradigm
versus the data mining paradigm. Also discussed are the new forms
of collaboration within the Arts and Humanities that are raised
through modular research teams and new organisational structures,
as well as techniques for collaborating in an interdisciplinary
way.
