Over the past several decades, advances in computing, data and information management, and archival techniques have greatly altered how humanities scholars approach their objects of study. In particular, over the past five years, the web 2.0 revolution has made these advancements more applicable than ever before to humanities research endeavours. Digital Humanities, however it is defined, can no longer be seen as a particular sub-set of humanistic research as it has become an increasingly integrated element within normative everyday humanities scholarship. Consequently, it includes more than text-encoding or image digitization and the creation of electronic archives. Rather, it is how such electronic media are used and studied by researchers in a wide array of projects from linguistic analyses to the changing realms of new media.
海角社区鈥檚 Digital Humanities projects and collaborations are well established and internationally recognized. They are spread throughout the university: both across the departments of the humanities and between the faculties of the university, connecting the humanities to collaborative projects with the social sciences and sciences.
