My dissertation aims to offer a comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of papyrological resources in the context of digital humanities approaches. They are examined on the basis of notions introduced in digital humanities literature, which define the hallmarks of digital scholarly resources and provide recommendations for them to be increasingly useful for humanities research. A reconsideration of papyrological projects from this viewpoint allows us to shed new light on their characteristics and on the opportunities for the research process, and to discuss the challenges that these characteristics reveal, exploring solutions for possible issues. Given the wealth of established, varied and standard-based projects in papyrology, the analysis also helps comprehend the range, breadth and complexity of the whole digital humanities scenario.
