摘要:数字人文在当下中国,已经成为学术研究的热点和趋势。因此有必要对数字人文的“数字”组成部分进行比较深入的讨论。第一,“数字”是软件和算法,“数字”是技术和工具,“数字”是基础设施和研究范式。“数字”为人文学术研究带来机遇的同时,其技术困境和伦理困境也已显现。第二,从数字化生存到数据化发现,不仅带来新的思维模式和研究视角,而且实现了载体的转型进而导致意义的变迁。第三,从思辨式研究方法到数据驱动研究范式,实现了人文学术研究的“计算转向”。但问题在于“数字”一家独大,不能很好体现人文理念,影响了中国原创性学术成果的生产。如何突破数字人文的“数字困境”?加强问题导向、提升复合素养、跨界合作创新、提倡文化批评,就显得尤为重要。

Abstract: Digital humanities have become a hot spot and a trend of academic research in China.Therefore,it is necessary to have an in-depth discussion on the "digital" components of digital humanities.First,"digital" is software,algorithm,technology,tool,infrastructure and research paradigm.While "digital" brings opportunities for humanistic academic research,its technical and ethical dilemmas have also emerged.Second,from digital survival to digital discovery,it not only brings a new mode of thinking and research perspective,but also transforms the carrier and leads to the change of meaning.Third,it has realized the "computational turn" of humanistic academic research from speculative research method to data-driven research paradigm.However,the problem is that "digital" is dominant,which cannot well reflect the humanistic concept,thus it affects the original academic achievements in China.How to break through the "digital dilemma" of digital humanities? It is particularly important to strengthen problem orientation,improve compound literacy,cross-border cooperation and innovation,and promote cultural criticism.

Key words: digital humanities, digital, technical dilemma, data discovery, data driven
