Revision to “The Big Humanities, National Identity and the Digital Humanities in Germany”

I have integrated a number of comments and clarifications from my colleagues in Dariah-DE and TextGrid in revising “The Big Humanities, National Identity and the Digital Humanities in Germany” — a good deal more has gone into making Dariah-DE international than had been clear to me when I first wrote this draft. I also have integrated information from Domenico Fiormonte’s essay, “Towards monocultural (digital) Humanities?” This essay outlines some of the problems of relying upon the Scopus database and rightly emphasizes the challenge of maintaining linguistic (as well as cultural and intellectual diversity). I have no good answers to this last problem except to say that we have our work cut out for us. For more on the Fiormonte essay, see here. This document remains subject to revision in light of comments and suggestions. — GRC July 20, 2015.
