Reviews

In this exemplary collection, Christopher Ohge and Kristen Schuster issue a powerful reminder of the foundational role of textual scholarship within the study of digital technologies in the humanities. But even more importantly, they demonstrate that textual studies represents the future as well as the past of digital humanities, acting as a fruitful lingua franca between disciplines as apparently disparate as literary studies, book history, new media, museum curation, library studies, theology and data science, to open up new possibilities for researchers and curators. -- Francesca Benatti, Senior Research Fellow In Digital Humanities, Open University, UK
