内容简介：Canestablished humanities methodscoexist with computational thinking? It is one of the major questions inhumanities research today, as scholars increasingly adopt sophisticated datascience for their work. James E. Dobson explores the opportunities andcomplications faced by humanists in this new era. Though the study andinterpretation of texts alongside sophisticated computational tools can servescholarship, these methods cannot replace existing frameworks. As Dobson shows,ideas of scientific validity cannot easily nor should be adapted for humanitiesresearch because digital humanities, unlike science, lack a leading-edgehorizon charting the frontiers of inquiry. Instead, the methods of digitalhumanities require a constant rereading. At the same time, suspicious andcritical readings of digital methodologies make it unwise for scholars to deferto computational methods.
