web archives & Digital Humanities

The project “Methods of Digital Humanities in Application for the Development and Use of Web Archives,” funded by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft = DFG), aims to explore the application of Digital Humanities methods and tools to data sets from web archives. The focus is on testing innovative and intuitive access methods and implementing procedures for automated and user-controlled inventory creation. A political science case study is being conducted to verify the research-related applicability of the procedures and tools.
