Synopsis

A collection of essays engaging with digital scholarship and new technologies.

Contributors to this volume engage with digital scholarship in several ways: by creating digital projects, often in multidisciplinary, collaborative environments; by applying digital methodologies and tools to explore research questions; and by speculating about the potential directions that digital scholarship can take to tackle existing research areas that could benefit from new perspectives. Together, the chapters demonstrate how various digital approaches―from network analysis to web mapping, VR and AR technologies, digital editions, databases, and archives―are all contributing in creative and effective ways to expand our knowledge of the past, to help ask and answer questions at a scale that was unimaginable before the digital turn, and to reshape early modern studies in the twenty-first century. Editors Randa El Khatib and Caroline Winter are co-organizers of New Technologies and Renaissance Studies–Digital Humanities at RSA (NTRS–DH@RSA) 2020, the online conference upon which this volume is based.
