Dear Willard,

I intersected Bentkowska's and Tannenbaum's suggestions:

"Humanities should a.o. train students to use the power of computing to
enable inquiries that by hand and brain alone would
be too difficult or time-consuming to be feasible, thus opening major
new vistas on our disciplines and ourselves."

That makes perfect sense to me.

Cheers,
Joris

My take on Willard's definition, combined with the Google approach:
DH is: trying to explain art (and literature, and philosophy, and
music...) to a computer.
