The theme for this year’s conference was ‘Digital Diversity: Cultures, languages and methods’ and the conference schedule includes contributions on a wide range of topics, reflecting the increasing breadth in the field on all levels. The conference offers opportunities to explore new themes, acknowledges the increasing linguistic diversity of the field and reflects the growth of digital humanities centres and networks in new regions of the world. Both of our keynote speakers reflect on this diversity: Claudine Moulin will explore the challenges in developing interdisciplinary and transnational research structures, with particular consideration for the role of digital humanities; Masahiro Shimoda contemplates the relationship of the field to the wider humanities from a historical and cultural perspective.
