Call for papers

Digital humanities and web archives

A special issue of International Journal of Digital Humanities

Although history is written mainly online in our time, web archives, as the treasure chests of primary sources of our digital-born culture are still relatively unknown and certainly underused by researchers of social studies and humanities, even by digital humanities scholars. We invite proposals from scholars and heritage professionals on any topic related to the use of web archives and curating born-digital data, among others websites, social media, etc. Proposals on all aspects of digital humanities research using and curating web archives are invited. Topics can be related but are not limited to language, politics, sociology, aesthetics of web archiving; more technical aspects are also welcome, like data analysis, statistics, etc.
