Based on an overview of the history of digital humanities development in Spanish-speaking regions,this study systematically analyzes digital humanities papers published by researchers in major Spanish-speaking countries from 1998 to 2023 using bibliometric methods and large language modeling tools. It then compares these papers with those published in China to gain a deeper understanding of the characteristics and development paths of digital humanities research in the two regions.The study finds that digital humanities communities in the Spanish-speaking world exhibit close regional collaboration,focus on contemporary research subjects,and tend towards socio-cultural issues,with their development primarily driven by the humanities. In contrast,digital humanities research in China leans towards the digitization and intelligent application of humanities resources,primarily driven by cultural resources and technology.The development experiences of both regions offer valuable insights for understanding the diverse practical paths of digital humanities in developing countries.This study innovatively compares the development of digital humanities in non-English-speaking regions and introduces large language models to extract research subjects from papers,enhancing the methodological novelty of the literature review.
