The examination process consists ofan analysis of five modes of engagement of IT and humanities elaborated by Svensson and oftheir specifications in terms of digital research in philosophy. Firstly, we introduce the issueof digital humanities and their definitions; then we define Svensson’s modes of engagementof IT and humanities (IT as a tool, study object, expressive medium, experimental laboratory,activist venue); and we exemplify each of them with digital philosophical projects and theirmethodological assumptions (the first mode is analysed in detail).
