With its e-Humanities programme, the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) aims to increase understanding of the possibilities opened up by information technology for the humanities and social sciences and to bring together researchers in that field.
Working with university colleagues, researchers at the various Academy institutes will develop innovative theories and tools. The programme runs until 2015.
The work will focus on two themes: Computational Humanities and Cultures of e-Humanities.
Computational Humanities means the development of tools, methods, and approaches for collecting, storing, processing, documenting, and presenting data.
Cultures of e-Humanities involves research into the impact of innovation on the way those engaged in the humanities and social sciences conduct their research.
