Ginema del Rio Riande
Professor of Medieval Studies, University of Buenos Aires Refounding the Digital Humanities from the South
|
This talk will focus on a “think global, act local” approach to digital humanities, through the perspectives of North-South, Western-Eastern, Canon-Corpus, and Center-Periphery, with the aim of reflecting upon the trajectory of the discipline. Case studies on epistemological diversity from the global South will enable an understanding of the global effects of its institutionalization. An emphasis on some Humanidades Digitales projects and initiatives from Latin America and the Caribbean will demonstrate how concepts such as the commons have been reshaped, significantly advancing the rethinking of Open Access and Open Science.
