Computational Humanities Research (CHR) is an open access journal in the computational humanities, publishing transdisciplinary papers that are grounded in humanities research questions and use computational, quantitative methodologies to analyse humanities data in its various forms. It is the official journal of the CHR Conference. CHR publishes research that tackles big questions and solves problems pertaining to the humanities through advanced computational methods, contributing empirically to major theoretical, cultural, and historical inquiry. It seeks papers that spotlight quantitative and computational methods and applications, including the practical use and impact of computational techniques, in humanities research. It welcomes direct submissions as well as submissions for themed issues.
Read the first articles to be published in Computational Humanities Research!

We are delighted to announce the publication of our first articles, which appear open access either as part of our first two themed issues (Missing Data in the Humanities, and Expanding the Toolkit: Large Language Models in Humanities Research) or as individual articles. Read them now!

Calls for stand-alone papers, themed issue papers, and themed issue proposals

Computational Humanities Research (CHR) seeks papers that spotlight quantitative and computational methods and applications, including the practical use and impact of computational techniques in humanities research. You may submit:

  • Stand-alone papers via ScholarOne
  • Papers as part of a themed issue (see below)
  • Proposals for entire themed issues (see below)

Computational Narratology

This themed issue brings together interdisciplinary research to advance our understanding of narratives through computational methods—from theoretical explorations to empirical studies and creative applications. Learn more and submit your research via the Call for Papers page.

Meaning, Form, and History in Computational Poetics

This themed issue invites contributions in the field of computational poetics—the application of computational methods to the study of poetic texts and discourse, with a focus on meter, rhyme, and stanza. Learn more and submit your research via the Call for Papers page.

Call for themed issue proposals

We invite proposals for guest-edited themed issues that advance the field of computational humanities through innovative and rigorous research. Learn more and submit your proposal via the Call for Proposals page.
