1. Digital Epistemology - An Introduction -- 2. CCC Vs WWW: Digital Epistemology and Literary Text -- 3. Evoking McLuhan's Juxtapositions in the Digital Age: Archaeology and the Mosaic -- 4. "Books are Machines": Materiality and Agency from the 1960s to the 2010s -- 5. Towards a 21st Century Pedagogy for the Humanities.
Open Access
This Open Access book explores the concept of digital epistemology. In this context, the digital will not be understood as merely something that is linked to specific tools and objects, but rather as different modes of thought. For example, the digital within the humanities is not just databases and big data, topic modelling and speculative visualizations; nor are the objects limited to computer games, other electronic works, or to literature and art that explicitly relate to computerization or other digital aspects. In what way do digital tools and expressions in the 1960s differ to the ubiquitous systems of our time? What kind of artistic effects does this generate? Is the present theoretical fascination for materiality an effect or a reaction to a digitization? Above all: how can early modern forms such as the cabinets of curiosity, emblem books and the archival principle of pertinence contribute to the analyses of contemporary digital forms?
