Our gallery is rife with examples, a few of which I\u2019m proud to highlight below.<\/p>\n<p>A logical first step in blogging about this happy trend is to define the phenomenon we\u2019re investigating. But there seems to be no commonly agreed-upon definition of \u201cdigital humanities\u201d. In fact, there\u2019s even a website, <a href=\"https:\/\/whatisdigitalhumanities.com\/\">whatisdigitalhumanities.com<\/a>, that gives you a different definition each time you load the page! Here are a few of my favorites:<\/p>\n<p>Digital Humanities is\u2026<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The creative application of digital technology to humanities questions and data.<\/li>\n<li>The use of computational techniques in the humanities that would allow research that is otherwise impossible.<\/li>\n<li>The democratization of knowledge through the application of digital technologies to the advancement of discourse in the humanities, broadly defined (and not restricted to the academy!).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The second definition makes a key point: that technology is enabling insights in the humanities that are otherwise difficult or impossible to achieve. And the third implies that technology not only spurs new knowledge, but it enables broader dissemination of that knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>How does that apply to us? GIS is, of course, a key digital technology that can provide new insights. And Story Maps can help disseminate those insights to large audiences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We&#8217;ve curated a <a href=\"https:\/\/collections.storymaps.esri.com\/humanities\/\">collection page<\/a> <\/strong>featuring dozens of story maps featuring digital humanities topics.
