Coordinator’s Foreword

Abstract

The present issue of the Studia UBB. Digitalia is exclusively dedicated to articles written by students of the Babeș-Bolyai University. The idea of this special issue was born during a module of digital humanities we taught in the spring of 2020. The course was dedicated to students from different social sciences and humanities faculties from the university. Some of their final projects were so well accomplished and interesting, that we considered publishing them, and thus a special issue of our journal appeared as the best option. Given these prerequisites, we stress on the fact that all authors are at their first (major) editorial experience and while the peer-reviewers suggested many improvements for the texts – which were subsequently taken into account – their greenness might still be noticeable. Upon reflection, we did not consider this as a drawback, but rather a refreshing feature, pointing to the future of digital humanities research.
