Sometimes called humanities computing, the field has focused on the digitization and analysis of materials related to the traditional disciplines of the humanities. Digital Humanities currently incorporates both digitized and born-digital materials and combines the methodologies from the traditional humanities disciplines (such as history, philosophy, linguistics, literature, art, archaeology, music, and cultural studies) with tools provided by computing (such as data visualisation, information retrieval, data mining computational analysis) and digital publishing./Contents/ [hide] / 1 Objectives/ 2 Standards/ 3 Terminology/ 4 Organizations and Institutions/ 5 Problems and limitations/ 6 See also/ 6.1 Centers/ 6.2 Journals/ 6.3 Meetings/ 6.4 Miscellaneous/ 7 References/ 8 Bibliography/ 9 External links/ [edit] Objectives/ Digital humanities work has a number of goals.
