Interdisciplining Digital Humanities sorts through definitions and
patterns of practice over roughly sixty-five years of work, providing an
overview for specialists and a general audience alike. It is the only
book that tests the widespread claim that Digital Humanities is
interdisciplinary. By examining the boundary work of constructing,
expanding, and sustaining a new field, it depicts both the ways this new
field is being situated within individual domains and dynamic
cross-fertilizations that are fostering new relationships across
academic boundaries. It also accounts for digital reinvigorations of
"public humanities" in cultural heritage institutions of museums,
archives, libraries, and community forums.
