Documents, Mediality and Narration. What We Talk About When We Talk About Digital Scholarship.
Abstract [ita]
La digital scholarship è costituita da metodologie e pratiche sia di ricerca sia di disseminazione dei risultati basate sul paradigma digitale e perciò, oltre agli aspetti più manifesti, ha un ruolo strategico nel panorama scientifico, in quanto luogo d’incontro tra scienze umane e scienze esatte. Partendo dall’etimologia di scholarship e dalla relazione dinamica tra i diversi significati veicolati, questo articolo si concentra sul rapporto tra le digital humanities e la digital scholarship e su come il concetto di pubblicazione elettronica implichi una concezione pluralistica del testo: queste diverse accezioni sono a loro volta un ponte tra settori disciplinari contigui ma spesso non comunicanti, come ad esempio discipline umanistiche da un lato e mediologiche dall’altro. Le riflessioni conclusive sono focalizzate sugli elementi costitutivi della digital scholarship e le loro possibili combinazioni e sul rapporto tra linguaggio testuale e visivo nella comunicazione scientifica.
Abstract [eng]
Digital scholarship consists of both research and publishing methodologies and practices based on the digital paradigm. It has, therefore, a strategic role in the scholarly landscape since it is a meeting place between humanities and hard sciences. Starting from the etymology of scholarship – and the dynamic relationship between the different meanings conveyed – this article focuses on the relationship between digital humanities and digital scholarship. An important aspect of this relationship is the implication by electronic publishing of a pluralistic view of text: these different meanings are a bridge between contiguous but more than often non-communicating disciplines, such as humanities and media studies. The concluding reflections focus on the constituent elements of digital scholarship and their possible combinations and on the relationship between textual and visual language and their use in scholarly communication.
