DH Projects

WHAT ARE THE  DIGITAL HUMANITIES?

The Digital Humanities is an environment that encourages scholars to develop and apply digital tools to new and old questions. Naomi Fraser

Some examples of digital humanities projects:

Rossetti Archive:

The Rossetti Archive consists of a project that contains documents, high-quality pictures and some works of the famous Dante Rossetti. This allows us to find a lot of information about Dante Rossetti in only one article or web, which is very practical.

Victorian Women Writers Project:

The second project is a platform that includes information about books, artworks, important documents of the least famous British women's writers of the 19th century. This is also very interesting because this allows us to find out of some writers that didn't become as famous as the known ones.

Imaging the French Revolution:

The last of the three DH projects consists of an interactive way to learn about the French Revolution. This type of projects. the interactive ones, allows us to learn more easily because they are more visual. In the project, you can choose different options, watch pictures, read documents and more.
