Σύνοψη	Digital hermeneutic analysis applies the classical tradition of hermeneutic interpretation — rooted in Schleiermacher, Dilthey, Gadamer, and Ricoeur — to born-digital and digitised texts, online corpora, and digital artifacts. It asks not only what digital objects mean, but how digital mediation, platform architecture, and computational affordances shape the conditions of meaning itself. The method is prominent in digital humanities, digital history, and media studies.	Discourse analysis is a qualitative research methodology that examines how language, communication, and power shape meaning, identity, and social reality. Developed across linguistics, sociology, and psychology (particularly by Norman Fairclough and Jonathan Potter), discourse analysis goes beyond content to analyze language use as a social practice that constitutes and reflects power relations, ideologies, and social structures.
