LWP 1000Intro to Digital Humanities

Catalog

How does digital representation work in the context of the Humanities? How is literary content created for digital media? Will digital media be the "death" of traditional print culture? This course will examine, through an interdisciplinary viewpoint rooted in the Humanities, the ways in which technology can be used to present, archive, locate and evaluate information. It will provide an overview of the Digital Humanities, using English literature as a foundation, and will also examine questions about the appropriate use of digital media in creative and academic projects.
