ABSTRACT

In this paper I have suggested a new possibility of Humanities in the new digital environment. Digital revolution make a change our everyday life and paradigms of sciences. At a first glance, this radical change seems to have negative influence on the future of Humanities. Everything which is given to us can be translation in binary language representation by digital technology-I have called this phenomenon to “total digitalization”. It means that humanities has to give up the traditional paradigm. But it means at the same time that we have a new powerful tool of representation. A new possibility of humanities lies, I believe, in this new language, because myths, sciences, and humanities are all attempts to modelling of the multiple world which we live in. A historical reflection of science makes this point clear.
