“To quote the Canadian sociologist Erving Goffmann, [digital humanists] begin with the powerful question, “what is it that’s going on?” One might say that it is the duty, indeed the social mandate of the humanities, to ask this question comprehensively of the digital age. Who else will pry into what’s happening to us all, find out what we can do about it, what we can do with ourselves because of it?”
Willard McCarty, responding to Matthew ReiszÂ
