Summary
This volume provides a reflection on the future of the interconnected disciplines brought together under the term ?historical humanities?: branches of scholarship concerned with the study of the past. Charting the Future of Historical Humanities explores current developments in a variety of disciplines, aiming to identify the trends that are impacting them, engaging critically with new directions of research, and reflecting on the perspectives that new tools and methodologies bring to the study of ancient, medieval, and early modern history of texts, ideas, and images. Its four sections are devoted to new trends in the edition of historical texts, the use of data in the historical humanities, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the ?material turn? in historical scholarship.
