This landmark volume gathers the collective research of the group and its most remarkable experiments. From seemingly ineffable matters such as the "loudness" of thousands of novels, the geographic distribution of emotions, the nature of a sentence and a paragraph, and the evolution of bureaucratic doublespeak, descriptions emerge. The Stanford Literary Lab lets the computers provide new insights for questions from the deep tradition of two centuries of literary inquiry. Rather than, like the rest of us, letting the computers lead. The results are adventurous, witty, challenging, profound. The old questions can finally get new answers--as the prelude to new big questions. Canon/Archive is the fulfillment and further development of "distant reading," adding a rare, full-length monument to the piecemeal progress of the digital humanities. No student, teacher, or inquisitive reader of literature will want to be without this book--just as no one interested in the new data-attentive methods in history, criticism, and the social sciences can afford to evade its summons"--Back cover. 650 Literary form |xData processing. 650 English fiction |y19th century |xData processing. 650 Literature and technology. 700 Moretti, Franco, |d1950- |eeditor 942 |2ddc |cBK 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6801_900000000000000_5_MOR |70 |8REF |9126291OSA |bOSA |d2018-06-13 |eOSA |l0 |o801.9/5 MOR |r2018-06-13 |w2018-06-13 |yBK |cReference 920 01 MomLRAeD 992 01 801_900000000000000_5_MOR |bRZY_QZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ_U_DB8 966 |cIn the Research Room
