Abstract

Tito Orlandi, Is Humanities Computing a Discipline?

At the beginning, the article mentions the results of an enquiry on how humanities computing is being introduced into the curricula of the European universities; and the most important topics recently discussed around the theme of a theory of humanities computing. It appears that most experts agree on the opinion that humanities computing is an independent discipline, and as such it should be introduced into the faculties of humanities. The article then explains how the foundation of the discipline should be understood, on the basis of computing theory and the methodology of the different humanities disciplines.
