The field of Digital Humanities is becoming more exciting as the
number of low-cost or free mobile and desktop applications flood the
market allowing users to accomplish tasks that only a few years ago
were either not possible or required complicated coding or high-end
computing power. The range of these applications provides access to
digital communications, advanced visualization, data storage and
retrieval at unprecedented levels. Digital Humanists are incorporating
these tools as part of our teaching, research, and creative
expression. This research volume approaches the topic from a
perspective that will be attractive to those just beginning, through
the step by step guides to set up and use of a variety of tools with
accompanying objectives, and to those who are more advanced, through
more challenging applications and their use for teaching and research.
Furthermore this text will be of interest to administrators or those
sceptical about the Digital Humanities, as the essays will highlight
studies and research by experts in the field while maintaining the
particular perspective on literary studies and Digital Africana
Studies. This volume includes an introduction to the Digital
Humanities and chapters on The Social Web, Communications,
Visualization and Collaboration.
