Dig­i­tal Meth­ods in the Human­i­ties: Chal­lenges, Ideas, Per­spec­tives
Dig­i­tal Human­i­ties is a trans­for­ma­tion­al endeav­or that not only changes the per­cep­tion, stor­age, and inter­pre­ta­tion of infor­ma­tion but also of research process­es and ques­tions. It also prompts new ways of inter­dis­ci­pli­nary com­mu­ni­ca­tion between human­i­ties schol­ars and com­put­er sci­en­tists.
This vol­ume offers a unique per­spec­tive on dig­i­tal meth­ods for and in the human­i­ties. It com­pris­es case stud­ies from var­i­ous fields to illus­trate the chal­lenge of match­ing exist­ing tex­tu­al research prac­tices and dig­i­tal tools. Prob­lems and solu­tions with and for train­ing tools as well as the adjust­ment of research prac­tices are pre­sent­ed and dis­cussed with an inter­dis­ci­pli­nary focus.

An intro­duc­tion to applied semi­otics: tools for text and image analy­sis
An Intro­duc­tion to Applied Semi­otics presents nine­teen semi­otics tools for text and image analy­sis. Cov­er­ing a vari­ety of dif­fer­ent schools and approach­es, togeth­er with the author’s own orig­i­nal approach, this is a full and syn­thet­ic intro­duc­tion to semi­otics. This book presents gen­er­al tools that can be used with any semi­otic prod­uct. Draw­ing on the work of Fontanille, Genette, Greimas, Hébert, Jakob­son, Peirce, Rasti­er and Zil­ber­berg, the tools deal with the analy­sis of themes and action, true and false, pos­i­tive and neg­a­tive, rhythm nar­ra­tion and oth­er ele­ments.
The appli­ca­tion of each tool is illus­trat­ed with analy­ses of a wide range of texts and images, from well-known or dis­tinc­tive lit­er­ary texts, philo­soph­i­cal or reli­gious texts or images, paint­ings, adver­tis­ing and every­day signs and sym­bols. Each chap­ter has the same struc­ture – sum­ma­ry, the­o­ry and appli­ca­tion, mak­ing it ide­al for course use.
Cov­er­ing both visu­al and tex­tu­al objects, this is a key text for all cours­es in semi­otics and tex­tu­al analy­sis with­in lin­guis­tics, com­mu­ni­ca­tion stud­ies, lit­er­ary the­o­ry, design, mar­ket­ing and relat­ed areas.
