Why is there a lot to be said in favour of – and what would be – auxiliary digitality? Between a genuine digital pragmatics for the humanities and a philosophy of science of digital procedures

How we understand the digital transformation is not only important for the nature of a digital philosophical analysis in general. It also has an impact on what philosophy expects of the digital humanities. The author discusses this thesis with regard to discourses on digitality on the one hand and the relationship between DH and philosophy on the other. As far as the latter is concerned, she argues in favour of a phase of relaxed experimentation under the auspices of a merely auxiliary digitality instead of exaggerated avant-gardisms.
