digital humanities, information science, bilbiometric analysis, domain analysisAbstract
It investigates a sensitive notion of what may reveal the influence of academic literature production on the composition of the digital humanities. Prepares a field mapping through the analysis of bibliometric metrics. It implements a reading of these data using the VOSviewer software to build a diagnosis of the scope of digital humanities. Applies an analysis based on three pillars of bibliometric studies: authors, journals and keywords of retrieved academic articles. It outlines a scope analysis of the digital humanities domain based on bibliometric research. It clarifies the constitution of an incipient and complex domain through the analysis of characteristics printed in literature and only available through it. It pursues a categorization capable of not only revealing details of its scope, but also providing elements indicative of which themes influence the area. Thus, it indicates the influence of Information Science on the digital humanities and clearly visualizes which terms are most recurrent.
