<P><EM>Hidden and Devalued Feminized Labour</EM> in the Digital Humanities examines the data-driven labour that underpinned the Index Thomisticus¿a preeminent project of the incunabular digital humanities¿and advanced the data-foundations of computing in the Humanities. </P><P>Through oral history and archival research, Nyhan reveals a hidden history of the entanglements of gender in the intellectual and technical work of the early digital humanities. Setting feminized keypunching in its historical contexts¿from the history of concordance making, to the feminization of the office and humanities computing¿this book delivers new insight into the categories of work deemed meritorious of acknowledgement and attribution and, thus, how knowledge and expertise was defined in and by this field. Focalizing the overlooked yet significant data-driven labour of lesser-known individuals, this book challenges exclusionary readings of the history of computing in the Humanities.
