- Offers a critical orientation to the tools, methods, and intellectual history of the digital humanities (DH).
- Explores key questions such as what debates are (re)shaping DH in this moment; what central theories lead humanities scholars to experiment with computational, geospatial, and network methodologies; how visualization can illuminate literature, history, writing, and other humanities subjects; and how new modes of research and publication might influence our teaching.
- Balances theory and praxis: Successful students come away with a well-grounded understanding of the DH field and a set of foundational skills to support their future research.
- No prior technical expertise is required to take the course, but students should be willing to experiment with new skills.
