Abstract

This paper aimed to explore research trends for the conceptualization of IT humanities. Reflecting domestic and international references which focused on the possibility of the integration of digital technology and humanities, the authors examined the beginning, background, and relevant concepts of IT humanities to figure out the meaning and the research trends. In addition, using the search word "IT humanities," the authors analyzed network topics of the keywords retrieved from 1,566 KCI and 64 SCI journal articles published since 2001. The concept of IT humanities in the previous studies has tended to associate with competencies that allow considering various fields of IT based on the lens of humanities perspectives. The result of the topic modeling revealed four groups as fields to be integrated with IT humanities, methods of implementation, connections of literature or culture, and creations of IT humanities. Instead of instrumentalization or merger by one stance of IT or humanities, it is imperative to collaboratively work for the generation of a new viewpoint through mutual respect of disciplines.

이 논문은 IT 인문학 관련 연구의 동향을 탐색함으로써 IT 인문학이 어떤 개념으로 활용되고 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 디지털 과학기술 IT과 인문학 조합의 가능성에 주목하여 꾸준히 수행되어온 국내외의 문헌을 통해, IT 인문학의 기원과 배경, 유사 개념을 바탕으로 연구 동향을 알아보고 IT 인문학의 의미에 대해서 고찰하였다. 그리고 'IT 인문학' 및 'IT humanities' 검색어를 활용하여, 2001년 이후 발간 된 학술논문 중 주제어 정보를 제공하는 KCI급 1,566편, SCI급 64편을 대상으로 주제어의 네트워크 토픽 분석을 실시하였다. IT 인문학이라는 용어가 등장한 논문에서의 IT 인문학의 의미는 다양한 분야의 IT 정보기술이 인문학의 관점에서 생각할 수 있는 역량과 관련이 있었다. 토픽모델링 결과는 IT 인문학과 융합하는 분야 대상, 적용되는 형태, 문학·문화와의 연관, IT 인문학의 창출의 네 가지 군집으로 형성되었다. IT와 인문학의 융합은 한 쪽이 다른 한쪽을 도구화하거나 일방적으로 수렴하는 구조가 아닌, 상호 존중에 기초한 협업의 자세로 새로운 사유를 창출하도록 해야할 것이다.
