Digital Humanities is the critical study of how digital technologies and methods intersect with humanities scholarship and scholarly communication.  It investigates the use of digital tools and software for interpretation and analysis of humanities research questions and how digital methodologies can be used to enhance disciplines such a Art History, Classical Studies, History, Literature, Music and many others. 

Digital Humanities allows scholars to approach old problems with new means, or to ask new questions that could not have been asked with the traditional means of humanistic enquiry. Whatever the approach chosen, Digital Humanities remains grounded in humanities research and interests.
