Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"A showcase for the range and the potential of. . . . 'big data' literary study. A new, turbocharbged sort of philology-one covering wider swaths of literature than even the most diligent and asocial researcher could ever read."--Chronicle of Higher Ed "A massively important book. . . . If you want to know what a major part of literary criticism will look like in 20 years, you need to read Macroanalysis.--Los Angeles Review of Books "Jockers puts data mining and word crunching to good use in analyzing textual components across large textual databases. . . . A fascinating blend of statistics and sociolinguistic analysis. Recommended."--Choice "A truly significant exploration of the intersection of literary studies and computer-assisted text analysis. Through a series of perspectives and methodologies, Macroanalysis convincingly demonstrates the power and potential of literary text analysis."--Stefan Sinclair, coauthor of Visual Interface Design for Digital Cultural Heritage "Jockers dares us to consider what the future can hold now that so much of the literary canon is accessible digitally."--Library Journal "An instructive introduction to the history of computing in the humanities and its increasingly sophisticated methodology."--Library Journal
