Omschrijving
The book presents a varied picture of the possibilities of digital literary studies in the areas of style, diction, and characterization. It uses both huge natural language corpora and smaller, more specialized collections of texts created for specific tasks, and provocatively applies statistical techniques to broader literary and stylistic questions.
