Summary

Innovation in humanities education and research is stimulated by new technologies for the processing of language, speech, music, visual arts, and other expressions of the human mind. Three main topics will be discussed: the role of large-scale resources such as text corpora and digital archives; advanced methods and tools for processing and simulation; and the use of courseware, multimedia, and hypermedia in humanities teaching and learning.
