The Digital Humanities Center of the Department of Human and Social Sciences, Cultural Heritage (DSU) aims to reflect the multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research<\/strong> activities carried out in the field of Digital Humanities (DH) at the CNR, to aggregate, promote, and enhance them, and to create a visible and dynamic network among DSU researchers and expertise engaged in this research area.<\/p>\n

Humanities and computer science transform one another, positioning themselves within research activities that, by definition, foster cross-sector fertilization processes between SSH and STEM. DH is identified as a specific methodology<\/strong> that is characteristic of research in the context of the immaterial digital<\/strong>, while also encompassing textuality and artifacts in their material form.<\/p>\n

Digital Humanities at the CNR<\/strong> have progressively consolidated since the late 1960s, developing expertise and skills and giving rise to a lively and transversal community (read more about the history of digital humanities at the CNR<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Methodologies, tools, models, and computational applications are developed, tested, and refined; protocols, languages, and formats <\/strong>are defined both to produce content and to activate processes of sharing and collaboration, and to support policies aimed at ensuring the accessibility and transparency of research data and products. In this sense, digital is no longer conceived in opposition to analogue, but rather as a fundamental aspect of research in the humanities.<\/p>\n

CNR research in the field of DH exerts a profound and structural impact <\/strong>both on scientific research methodologies and on teaching practices, while also influencing social, legal, and economic transformations in an integrated manner.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
