Abstract

The book "Exploring Digital Humanities in India: Pedagogies, Practices, and Institutional Possibilities" provides a comprehensive overview of the rise of Digital Humanities (DH) in India. The authors highlight the challenges faced by the Indian educational system, such as financial constraints and infrastructural limitations, and emphasize the need for upliftment, activism, and development in the field. The book covers various topics, including traditional research methods, the position of DH in India, archival efforts to understand women's history, the impact of digital media on society, video games as a case study, the transition of newspapers from print to digital, and the transformation of radio broadcasting in the digital age. Overall, the book offers valuable insights into the development of DH in India and presents opportunities for further exploration and discussion in the field. [Extracted from the article]
