Abstract
Abstract:In a post-pandemic world, digital humanities is facing a new moment of opportunity to move beyond the roadblocks of the past—such as resistance to the crossover between feminist and technological projects and a tendency to construct digital tools without specific interpretive intent—and find a blended purpose in developing technological and methodological tools that not only make cultural contributions but also encourage the serendipitous discoveries that are crucial to the work of feminist scholars. Building on such an interconnected developmental relationship, this essay argues that digital tools and analytic methodologies can work together to inform and transform one another.
