This study identifies how the flagship Digital Humanities conference has evolved since 2004 and continues to evolve by analyzing the topical, regional, and authorial trends in its presentations. Additionally, we explore the extent to which Digital Humanists live up to the characterization of being diverse, collaborative, and global using the conference as a proxy. Given the increased popularization of “digital humanities” within the last decade, and especially recent successes in popular press and grant initiatives, this study tempers the sometimes utopic rhetoric that appears alongside mentions of the term. Cette etude a pour but de cerner comment la conference phare sur les humanites numeriques a evolue depuis 2004 et continue a evoluer, en analysant les tendances thematiques, regionales et d’auteur dans ses presentations. De plus, nous explorons dans quelle mesure les humanistes numeriques sont a la hauteur de la caracterisation en matiere de diversite, de collaboration et de mondialisation, en utilisant la conference comme intermediaire. Etant donne la vulgarisation croissante des « humanites numeriques » au cours de la derniere decennie, et en particulier les recents succes dans la presse populaire et les initiatives de subvention, cette etude modere la rhetorique parfois utopique qui apparait aux cotes des mentions du terme. Mots-cles: ADHO; authorship; disciplinarite
