It provides librarians and archivists with the practical knowledge to understand the process and decision making in the digitization of flat media.

Der öffentliche Diskurs in Bezug auf kulturelle Umbrüche durch die Möglichkeiten der Digitalisierung ist von einem hohen Maß an Skepsis und Ablehnung gegenüber neuen Technologien geprägt. Das gilt - abgesehen von den Speerspitzen des Fortschritts - besonders auch für jene Branchen, die professionell mit Literatur zu tun haben, wie den Buchhandel, das Verlagswesen, die Literaturwissenschaft oder auch die AutorInnenverbände. Genauere Analysen zeigen jedoch, dass die Buchkultur nicht in der Digitalisierung endet, sondern sich in ihr fortsetzt. Denn viele Vorzüge der dezentralen Wissensbereitstellung durch digitale Medien sind lediglich perfektionierte, beschleunigte und in der Handhabung vereinfachte Praktiken, die sich bereits in der Buchkultur durchgesetzt haben und weiterhin unsere Vorstellung vom Umgang mit geistigen Inhalten bestimmen. Literatur und Digitalisierung informiert wissenschaftlich fundiert über die Veränderungen in der Produktion, Verbreitung und Rezeption von Literatur durch Digitalisierung und resümiert bisherige Entwicklungen mit Fokus auf den deutschsprachigen Raum. Namhafte ExpertInnen verschaffen einen Überblick über einen dynamischen, oft als disparat empfundenen Bereich. Übersichtlichkeit und leichte Handhabbarkeit sollen den Abbau vorhandener Unklarheiten und Mythisierungen erleichtern.

Digital Samaritans explores rhetorical delivery and cultural sovereignty in the digital humanities. The exigence for the book is rooted in a practical digital humanities project based on the digitization of manuscripts in diaspora for the Samaritan community, the smallest religious/ethnic group of 770 Samaritans split between Mount Gerizim in the Palestinian Authority and in Holon, Israel. Based on interviews with members of the Samaritan community and archival research, Digital Samaritans explores what some Samaritans want from their diaspora of manuscripts, and how their rhetorical goals and objectives relate to the contemporary existential and rhetorical situation of the Samaritans as a living, breathing people. How does the circulation of Samaritan manuscripts, especially in digital environments, relate to their rhetorical circumstances and future goals and objectives to communicate their unique cultural history and religious identity to their neighbors and the world? Digital Samaritans takes up these questions and more as it presents a case for collaboration and engaged scholarship situated at the intersection of rhetorical studies and the digital humanities.
