The system allows searches to be specified through traditional search, as well as through providing reference documents or visually exploring a semantic ontology for terms of interest. We offer a discussion of using visualization to try to answer humanities questions and take an honest look at the difficulties of using a methodology of one discipline to solve the problems of another.envisualizationvisualization techniquesvisual searchdigital humanitiesArticle, Research
