A wide-ranging, interconnected anthology presents a diversity of
feminist contributions to digital humanities In recent years, the
digital humanities has been shaken by important debates about
inclusivity and scope-but what change will these conversations
ultimately bring about? Can the digital humanities complicate the
basic assumptions of tech culture, or will this body of scholarship
and practices simply reinforce preexisting biases? Bodies of
Information addresses this crucial question by assembling a varied
group of leading voices, showcasing feminist contributions to a
panoply of topics, including ubiquitous computing, game studies,
new materialisms, and cultural phenomena like hashtag activism,
hacktivism, and campaigns against online misogyny. Taking
intersectional feminism as the starting point for doing digital
humanities, Bodies of Information is diverse in discipline,
identity, location, and method. Helpfully organized around keywords
of materiality, values, embodiment, affect, labor, and
situatedness, this comprehensive volume is ideal for classrooms.
And with its multiplicity of viewpoints and arguments, it's also an
important addition to the evolving conversations around one of the
fastest growing fields in the academy. Contributors: Babalola
