Abstract
Invited article. The relationship between New Testament textual criticism (NTTC) and digital humanities (DH) is a successful one, as demonstrated by the analysis of five ERC grants in NTTC and DH, awarded in the last decade. Along with other features of the field, these projects highlight the fast evolution of NT digital editing and multilingualism, and the importance of domain centered research infrastructures. A DH approach has yet to be explored in NTTC: the automated recognition of handwritten characters. This chapter demonstrates that NTTC is boosting NT studies with access to new, digitized research material, while remaining grounded in a well-established tradition of close reading. It takes advantage of digital methodologies while honoring humanities core-skills.
