Summary/Abstract: In the article, I refer to the the issue of the digital turn in humanities, concerning its implications from the methodological perspective. I deal with the question: should digital humanities be defined only as the application of digital research methods in the field of humanities and the potential mode of its institutionalisation? Or may it be considered as a proposal for the improvement and introduction of the new republic of humanists, creating the research area for the projects situated between constructing / inventing and finding the solution?
