Lisez en ligne l'article de Crandall ShifflettSeeing the Past: Digital History as New Model Scholarship ( jolt.merlot.org/vol3no1/shifflett.pdf )sur l'apport des nouvelles techniques de représentation visuelle à l'e-a de l'histoire dont je cite la conclusion " detailed visualization techniques possess four qualities that aid in the practice of history: 1. Visualizations provide visual models to see, imagine, get a mental picture of, and analyze what would not otherwise be imagined or even considered, similar to the role visualization plays in medical science. 2. Advanced technology provides new analytical tools for data manipulation. 3. Visual history brings together different datasets (visual/graphical, cartographical, archaeological, and textual) to produce multiple perspectives on the same phenomena in a comparative historical context. 4. Digital history restores the natural contingency, indeterminacy, and unpredictability to historical narratives."
