New Directions in Digital Humanities
Each year the King's "New Directions in Digital Humanities" seminar (formerly known as "Seminar in Humanities Computing") presents a series of lectures and demonstrations by leading scholars, postgraduate students, and practitioners from across the disciplines of the humanities and nearby social sciences. The Seminar aims not only to present work at the leading edge of application but also to provide a forum in which this work is subject to critical reflection and thoughtful probing.
The Seminar includes the biennial Wisbey Lecture, in which a scholar of international standing is invited to explore the effects, implications, and promise of computing and communications technologies for the arts and humanities, and of the challenges that the arts and humanities pose for those technologies.
All events take place at King’s College London unless otherwise noted. The public is warmly invited. For further information contact Dr Michele Pasin, (0)20 7848 7144.
The Seminar is promoted by the Department of Digital Humanities (DDH), and is normally held in DDH's own seminar room in the building at 26-29 Drury Lane (five minutes' walk from the main Strand building of King's College, London).
