 What are Digital Humanities? What does the library of the future look like
 ? Will the single-author peer-reviewed article survive the DH storm that i
 s coming? How will the DH impact the ways we do historical research? And w
 hat ethical and legal problems arise from the use of DH methods? In this c
 ourse\, we will familiarize ourselves and experiment with a variety of Dig
 ital Humanities tools\, such as network analysis\, geospatial mapping\, te
 xt mining\, and crowdsourcing\, interrogating how the DH reshape the ways 
 we approach textual and material culture\, ask research questions\, proces
 s data\, publish\, and store academic scholarship.\n\n\n\n  \n    \n    Sa
