But historians have yet to formulate a methodology for approaching the archived web as a source of study. How should the history of the present be written? In this book, Niels Brügger offers an original methodological framework for approaching the web of the past, both as a source and as an object of study in its own right.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile many studies of the web focus solely on its use and users, Brügger approaches the archived web as a semiotic, textual system in order to offer the first book-length treatment of its scholarly use. While the various forms of the archived web can challenge researchers' interactions with it, they also present a range of possibilities for interpretation. The \u003ci\u003eArchived Web ide\u003c\/i\u003entifies characteristics of the online web that are significant now for scholars, investigates how the online web became the archived web, and explores how the particular digitality of the archived web can affect a historian's research process. Brügger offers suggestions for how to translate traditional historiographic methods for the study of the archived web, focusing on provenance, creating an overview of the archived material, evaluating versions, and citing the material. The\u003ci\u003e Archived Web lays\u003c\/i\u003e the foundations for doing web history in the digital age, offering important and timely guidance for today's media scholars and tomorrow's historians.Acknowledgments ix \u003cbr\u003eIntroduction 1 \u003cbr\u003e1 Doing Web History in the Digital Age 11 \u003cbr\u003e2 The Digital and the Web 17 \u003cbr\u003e3 Five Analytical Web Strata 31 \u003cbr\u003e4 Cases of Web History 41 \u003cbr\u003e5 Archiving the Web 73 \u003cbr\u003e6 The Web of the Past—Where to Find What? 91 \u003cbr\u003e7 The Web of the Past as a Historical Source 103 \u003cbr\u003e8 Scholarly Use of the Archived Web 119 \u003cbr\u003e9 Toward a Source Criticism of the Archived Web 137 \u003cbr\u003e10 On the Edge of the Web 149 \u003cbr\u003e11 Conclusion—the Future of Web History 155 \u003cbr\u003eNotes 161 \u003cbr\u003eReferences 169 \u003cbr\u003eIndex 181Niels Brügger is e Professor and Head of the Centre for Internet Studies at Aarhus University, Denmark, and Head of NetLab.","brand":"The MIT Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46305242743013,"sku":"NP9780262549714","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780262549714.jpg?v=1767738125","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/the-archived-web-isbn-9780262549714","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
