Abstract

This article seeks to emphasize the connection between digital humanities and archives. It is based on corpus study work around digital humanities mainly in French and English. Other texts on digital archives were also examined. Here we wish to examine the place of archives in the era of digital humanities. Are we talking about a revolution or evolution in the positioning of archives and archivists? It seemed necessary to question the impact of digital humanities on archives, and to know to what extent they have influenced archives, its notions, its principles, its tools and functioning, and especially its long-term conservation methods. term and in return the actual interest of archives in taking part in digital humanities? We try to give some historical benchmarks on the origins of digital humanities, then study the impacts on archives by focusing on the issue of archives and especially the notion of long-term conservation and the notion of continuity in a context digital characterized by informational abundance.
