The Virtual Representation of the Past

摘要

This is the first volume in the series, Digital Research in the Arts and Humanities (an initiative of the AHRC ICT Methods Network). The series, and also this particular book, focus on the impact of new technologies in academic research, and address issues of fundamental importance to researchers using advanced methods. Although therefore a highly relevant source for the scholarly reader and researcher, Virtual Representation of the Past might be less tempting for the busy practitioner. In spite of the complexity of methods discussed, I would, however, still advise practitioners in the field to make an attempt to come to grips with what this collection has to offer.
