The recent development in Digital Humanities marks a transformative era in academia, where the humanities are increasingly integrating with digital technologies, computational methods, and AI, enhancing research, teaching, and creative outputs. This conference explores how DH sees such development and the evolving relationship between humanities and digital technologies. It focuses on topics that reshape humanities scholarship, from data analysis and pedagogy to creative production. This fosters interdisciplinary dialogues and examines innovations and implications in fields traditionally centered around humanistic inquiry.

WITCHES IN POPULAR CULTURE

For a volume that will be part of Lexington Books' series "Villains and Creatures" that will soon be under consideration by the publisher, we are looking for chapters (6,000 to 7,000 words long) on the representation of witches in popular media such as comics, TV series and videogames. We are particularly interested in the representation of witches in the OZ films and novels as well as in Marvel comics. 

Please send 300 word abstracts to Dr. Antonio Sanna at isonisanna@hotmail.com by the 15th of January 2025. Chapters will be due quite later this year.

For any further question, please do not hesitate to contact me immediately.
