Digital Humanities for art history 2022: A snapshot

Abstract

The Summer School dedicated to Digital Humanities (DH) for Art History, held between 27 June and 1 July 2022 at the Department of Excellence of the Department of Human Sciences (DSU Scienze Umane) of the University of L’Aquila, represented a singular opportunity for an in-depth snapshot of a discipline that, de facto, has only recently managed to carve out a defined space within academia. This, all the while for decades having been a fundamental component of many research institutes’ activities and at the same time acquiring a predominant role in the vast world of protection, enhancement and dissemination of cultural patrimony.
