The aim of the lecture series is to present various topics and research projects and thus provide an overview of current positions in the Digital Humanities.
In the winter semester, we invite interesting guests from research institutions in Göttingen and the surrounding area to discuss these topics.
The lectures will take place every week at 18:15 in the Institute of Digital Humanities 0.113 and online and will last about 50 minutes. Afterwards, there will be time for questions and lively discussions.
