Discover the intersection of global and local perspectives in Digital Humanities with Prof. Dr. Ulrike Wuttke from the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam. In this lecture, Prof. Wuttke introduces her upcoming Open Access anthology, “From Global to Local?” (to be published with Melusina Press in December 2025). This innovative project features classical articles, audio features, and artefact biographies, offering a critical examination of Digital Humanities in the German-speaking world while connecting it to broader global narratives.
The anthology explores how Digital Humanities practitioners navigate the balance between being part of a global academic community and working within distinct local and national contexts. Prof. Wuttke invites participants to engage in a discussion about the anthology’s multi-perspective and multimodal approach, including plans for an audio feature on “DH on Tour: The Venice Centre for Digital and Public Humanities”.
