Scholars foundational to the development of digital humanities join educators who have made digital methods central to their practices. Together they discuss and illustrate how digital pedagogies deepen student learning. The collection's innovative approach allows the works to be read in any order. Travis and DeSpain curate conversations on the value of project-based, collaborative learning; examples of real-world assignments where students combine close, collaborative, and computational reading; how digital humanities aids in the consideration of marginal texts; the ways in which an ethics of care can help students organize artifacts; and how an activist approach affects debates central to the study of difference in the nineteenth century.    A supplemental companion website with substantial appendixes of syllabi and assignments is now available for readers of Teaching with Digital Humanities.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49729486749969,"sku":"NGR9780252083983","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50137913655569,"sku":"CIN0252083989G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0252083989.jpg?v=1778752590"},{"product_id":"wounded-hearts-book-jennifer-travis-9780807829745","title":"Wounded Hearts","description":"This book offers a new approach to thinking about men and emotion. The literary study of emotion is part of an important revisionary movement among scholars eager to recast emotional politics for the twenty-first century. Looking beyond the traditional categories of sentiment, sensibility, and sympathy, Jennifer Travis suggests a new approach to reading emotionalism among men. She argues that the vocabulary of injury, with its evaluations of victimhood and its assessments of harm, has deeply influenced the cultural history of emotions. From the Civil War to the early twentieth century, Travis traces the history of male emotionalism in American discourse. She argues that injury became a comfortable vocabulary - particularly among white middle-class men - through which to articulate and to claim a range of emotional wounds. The debates about injury that flourished in the cultural arenas of medicine, psychology, and the law spilled over into the realm of fiction, as Travis demonstrates through readings of works by Stephen Crane, William Dean Howells, Willa Cather, Henry James, and Edith Wharton. Travis concludes by linking this history to twenty-first-century preoccupations with \"pain-centered politics,\" which, she cautions, too often focuses only on women and racial minorities.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50363018084625,"sku":"CIN0807829749G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0807829749.jpg?v=1765619971"},{"product_id":"wounded-hearts-book-jennifer-travis-9780807856352","title":"Wounded Hearts","description":"This book offers a new approach to thinking about men and emotion.
