Graduate Student Jeff Turner publishes article in Digital Humanities Quarterly
Digital Humanities Quarterly (DHQ) is an open-access, peer-reviewed, digital journal covering all aspects of digital media in the humanities.
FEBRUARY 26, 2020 - With his coauthors Turner explored "The Push and Pull of Digital
Humanities: Topic Modeling the 'What is digital humanities?' Genre." Turner and his
coauthors run a topic model on over 300 article-length pieces about Defining Digital
Humanities. They use this topic model as a way to think through entry into the digital
humanities as a negotiation between warm invitation and gatekeeping, the “pull” and
“push” of digital humanities. They then analyze the metadata they collected about
these pieces to explore how the push and pull manifest themselves unevenly across
different demographics.
Congratulations Jeff!
