The papers in these conference proceedings reflect the complex problems in historical biography and prosopographical research in the age of the digital humanities. The spectrum of topics ranges from individual biographical research, and oral history and personal experience reports in (major) prosopographical projects, to the challenges posed by multifunctional prosopographical databases and granting access to them online.
