A Definition of Digitial Humanities


Digital humanities is literature that functions with technology being an essential part of its production. Matthew Kirschenbaum referenced the Wikipedia article on the concept, which, to paraphrase, said that digital humanities incorporates aspects of literature and literary scholarly in en electronic form. Works relating to digital humanities will be investigative and analytical, but most importantly they will be a synthesis of "presentation and information." Examples of digital humanities include, but are not limited to, Twitter accounts that use textbots and interactive literature.
