DHLU 2009: L'histoire contemporaine à l'ère numérique - Contemporary History in the Digital Age



The book edited by Frédéric Clavert and Serge Noiret is publishing a selection of the papers presented during the inaugural DHLU Symposium in Luxembourg. Peter Lang's book is the result of the CVCE (Centre Virtuel pour la Connaissance de l'Europe) and University of Luxembourg first Digital Humanities conference held in 2009. 

The 2nd DIHU LUxembourg conference which tackled the methodological and theoretical implications of considering websites as primary sources (March 2012) was organised together with THATcamp Luxembourg/Trier. At the moment no publication has been planned but complete information about each panel, pictures and slides derived from the conference are available online.


This year the DHLU Symposium is the 3rd DIgital HUmanities Luxembourg conference which will take place on the 5th and 6th of December 2013. The CFP is still open until the 20th of August. DHLU 2013 is organized by the CVCE, together with the Jean Monnet Chair in History of European Integration (University of Luxembourg, FLSHASE) and its research programme ‘Digital Humanities Luxembourg’ — DIHULUX (research unit Identités-Politiques-Sociétés-Espaces (IPSE)) — and the University of Luxembourg’s Master’s in Contemporary European History."


This third edition "will focus on the use of online thematic research corpora. Given that more and more sources for contemporary history are being made available online as digital research corpora — as on the CVCE’s site — and following on from the first two editions which examined the methods used to develop these sources, this third edition of Digital Humanities Luxembourg will focus on the various ways in which this material is used by humanities researchers, particularly contemporary historians and more specifically specialists in European integration."

But let's get back to the book recently published with papers in French and in English about the 2009 first Symposium in Digital Humanities.

Book synopsis

FRENCH: Depuis plusieurs décennies, les usages du numérique en histoire se multiplient. Mais l’histoire contemporaine est parfois restée à la marge de ce mouvement. Ce livre, qui recouvre divers usages du numérique, ses outils, ses méthodes, sera à la fois une bonne introduction pour les historiens désirant se renseigner sur les usages informatiques en histoire contemporaine, et un outil utile aux chercheurs et aux enseignants plus rompus à cette utilisation. Cet ouvrage leur permettra de comparer leurs pratiques et de les approfondir dans le cadre des humanités numériques.


ENGLISH: Digital practices in the field of history have become more and more widespread in recent decades, but contemporary historians have often tended to remain on the sidelines of this trend. This book, which covers a wide range of digital practices, tools and methods, will serve both as a solid grounding for historians keen to learn how information technology can be applied to contemporary history, and as a useful tool for researchers and lecturers who already have a degree of experience in this area. It will enable scholars to compare and further their practices in the area of digital humanities, providing a comprehensive vision of the emerging field of digital history.
