当数字人文主义者在他们的工作中采用可视化工具时，他们借鉴了自然科学和社会科学中为图形化显示信息而开发的方法。这些工具将知识假设为观察者独立和确定的，而不是观察者共同依赖和解释的。本文认为，我们需要一个人文的方法来图形化的解释。首先，数据作为一种给定的概念必须通过人文主义的视角来重新思考，并将其描述为capta、获取和构建。其次，capta的图形表达形式需要更加细致，以显示模糊性和复杂性。最后，基于观察者和经验之间相互依赖关系的人文主义方法的使用，需要根据由解释性模型构建的图形来表达。总而言之：所有数据都必须被理解为capta，为表达观察者独立的知识模型而创建的惯例需要从根本上重新设计，以表达人文主义的解释。
As digital humanists have adopted visualization tools in their work, they have borrowed methods developed for the graphical display of information in the natural and social sciences. These tools carry with them assumptions of knowledge as observerindependent and certain, rather than observer codependent and interpretative. This paper argues that we need a humanities approach to the graphical expression of interpretation. To begin, the concept of data as a given has to be rethought through a humanistic lens and characterized as capta, taken and constructed. Next, the forms for graphical expression of capta need to be more nuanced to show ambiguity and complexity. Finally, the use of a humanistic approach, rooted in a codependent relation between observer and experience, needs to be expressed according to graphics built from interpretative models. In summary: all data have to be understood as capta and the conventions created to express observerindependent models of knowledge need to be radically reworked to express humanistic interpretation.
