Descripción
Sumario:"As in all fields and disciplines of the humanities, Jewish Studies scholars find themselves confronted with the rapidly increasing availability of digital resources (data), new technologies to interrogate and analyze them (tools), and the question of how to critically engage with these developments. This volume discusses how the digital turn has affected the field of Jewish Studies. It explores the current state of the art and probes how digital developments can be harnessed to address the specific questions, challenges and problems that Jewish Studies scholars confront. In a field characterised by dispersed sources, and heterogeneous scripts and languages that speak to a multitude of cultures and histories, of abundance as well as loss, what is the promise of Digital Humanities methods-- and what are the challenges and pitfalls?"--Publisher's description.
Notas:Articles originally presented at the international conference #DHJewish - Jewish Studies in the Digital Age, organised at the Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) at the University of Luxembourg in January 2021.
