This week, we announce the seventh article from JCLS 3 (1): Agapitos and van Cranenburgh "A Stylometric Analysis of Seneca's Disputed Plays" (10.48694/jcls.3919). Check it out at: jcls.io/issue/109/in... #ComputationalLiteraryStudies #CLS #JCLS #DigitalHumanities #CCLS24

Seneca's authorship of Octavia and Hercules Oetaeus has long been disputed. We show that based on computational stylometry, the disputed plays can be attributed to Seneca, except for certain segments where there may be mixed authorship. jcls.io/article/id/3...
