#PublicDH or just #WissKomm?

In recent years, digital science communication and the possibilities of social media have increasingly raised questions about classical research on science communication (cf. Franzen 2019, 616). This article connects here for the concept of public humanities.

Small Editions for Digital Humanities

Open science works when we pragmatically use tools that are openly available for research, for science communication and transfer. The blog portal Hypotheses.org and Wikisource.org are well suited to make sources visible and accessible, to open them up, for communities and their sense of community around them – crowdoriented citizen science for small digital editions.

The Public Humanities summer comes to an end: a small statistical evaluation

Outside, it has become unmistakably autumn. The wind sweeps around the corners and whirls up the colorful leaves. Not only is summer generally over, but so is our Public Humanities summer. Over the past weeks and months, you’ve been able to read a weekly blog post from the DH community about the Public Humanities in this space. Every Monday at 11 a.m., a new post went online (as well as the – mostly English-language – translation of the post shortly thereafter). Thirteen wonderful digital humanities scholars (teams) participated in the blog series and gave an insight into a total of 8 projects as well as a kind of meta-insight into the digital public humanities (5 posts).

The Science Council in Germany calls for transfer from science. While funding for basic research is primarily provided by the DFG, the BMBF is devoting more attention to projects in the field of Citizen Science and Public Humanities. However, due to this strategic embedding of communication with the public in funding programs, this public is often thought of as an anonymous collective, or addressed in terms of sociologically defined target groups.

What’s in it for us? Public Humanities as Challenge and Opportunity for the Digital Humanities

The previous posts in this blog series already show that the Public Humanities are pushing into the Digital Humanities and are emerging as a field of activity that demands attention.

Public Humanities in practice: the project “SocialMediaHistory – History on Instagram and TikTok”

The Public Humanities and the Citizen Humanities are multifaceted and can only be separated to a limited extent – Barbara Heinisch pointed this out in her article “A Path through the Conceptual Jungle of the Public Humanities” for this blog series. But what can these fields and their overlaps contribute to research in the humanities?
