Summary: The lecture will open the conversation and cover what digital humanities means to different audiences and how it is connected to both contemporary theories of post-print-literacy and to the history and future of reading, scholarship, and publishing. The lecture and presentation will be suited for graduate and undergraduate students as well as colleagues and researchers interested in these areas.
