Abstract
By relying on excerpts from papers of one of the pioneers of Linguistic Computing, the Jesuit father Roberto Busa, this article discusses the impact of automation of linguistic processing on the Humanities. Particularly, the article focusses on the inevitable computational turn that such impact has implied in the Humanities, by presenting a set of best practices in automatic processing of linguistic data, as well as in managing and distributing the empirical results of research projects in the Humanities, for purposes of repeatability. Finally, the article discusses the difference between Digital Humanities, as a research approach supported by technology, and Computational Humanities, as a deep methodological turn in the field.
