Publisher Description: Digitization technologies applied to historical newspapers have changed the research landscape historians were used to. An Eldorado? Despite unquestionable merits, the new digital affordance of historical newspapers also brings drawbacks and possible pitfalls which need to be carefully assessed. This volume gathers contributions of scholars experienced with digitised newspapers collections with the aim of fostering a discussion on heuristics, source criticism and interpretation of digitised newspapers. |
