Data and its technologies now play a large and growing role in
humanities research and teaching. This book addresses the needs of
humanities scholars who seek deeper expertise in the area of data
modeling and representation. The authors, all experts in digital
humanities, offer a clear explanation of key technical principles,
a grounded discussion of case studies, and an exploration of
important theoretical concerns. The book opens with an orientation,
giving the reader a history of data modeling in the humanities and
a grounding in the technical concepts necessary to understand and
engage with the second part of the book. The second part of the
book is a wide-ranging exploration of topics central for a deeper
understanding of data modeling in digital humanities. Chapters
cover data modeling standards and the role they play in shaping
digital humanities practice, traditional forms of modeling in the
humanities and how they have been transformed by digital
approaches, ontologies which seek to anchor meaning in digital
humanities resources, and how data models inhabit the other
analytical tools used in digital humanities research. It concludes
with a glossary chapter that explains specific terms and concepts
for data modeling in the digital humanities context. This book is a
unique and invaluable resource for teaching and practising data
modeling in a digital humanities context.
