Abstract

In The Emergence of the Digital Humanities, Steven E. Jones examines this shift in our relationship to digital technology and the ways that it has affected humanities scholarship and the academy more broadly. Based on the premise that the network is now everywhere rather than merely "out there," Jones links together seemingly disparate cultural events—the essential features of popular social media, the rise of motion-control gaming and mobile platforms, the controversy over the "gamification" of everyday life, the spatial turn, fabrication and 3D printing, and electronic publishing—and argues that cultural responses to changes in technology provide an essential context for understanding the emergence of the digital humanities as a new field of study in this millennium.

43. Response: In and Out of the Game, as Usual.

Author

Jones, Steven E.

Subjects

Abstract

In this response article, I revisit the idea of paratext in video games. I start, however, with the example of a book by Tolstoy, and the textual studies work of McKenzie and McGann, in order to make the point that paratextuality has never been limited to Genette's rigid definition, even in the case of print texts. Video games foreground what has always been the case: the dynamic, volatile, multidirectional nature of paratexts, which can take you into but also out of the enclosure of the main text (or "game itself") in unexpected ways. Illustrations include Animal Crossing: New Horizons and a mobile sneakerhead game, Aglet. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

50. Interview with Prof. Dr Steven E. Jones (University of South Florida)

Author

Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) [research center], Fonds National de la Recherche - FnR [sponsor], Zaagsma, Gerben, Jones, Steven E., Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) [research center], Fonds National de la Recherche - FnR [sponsor], Zaagsma, Gerben, and Jones, Steven E.

Abstract

In this interview, Professor Steven Jones talks about his career and training in textual studies. Because of his specific interest in the materiality of texts in archives, he soon became interested in the relationship of the physical and the digital as a theoretical problem and methodological issue. He then talks about the myth of Roberto Busa as “founding father of digital humanities” which he sets out to complement with history. He comments on Busa’s work with IBM and on the young female punched card operators that worked in the first institutional digital humanities centre that Busa created. Jones is currently working on a project to reconstruct and model the centre and the work that was done there. To conclude, he offers his comments on the directions digital humanities might take on in the future.
