New paper out! Our Hebrew Novel Project started as a citizen science effort to collect data on thousands of novels. We quickly realized - surprise, surprise : ) - that reading is complex.

Instead of trying to normalize this complexity, we embrace it! Our paper offers a statistical-phenomenological look at the complexity of the reading act. Huge thanks to the amazing JCLS editors and reviewers! @jcls-io.bsky.social

✨ We're kicking off the #DraCorSummit 2025 in Berlin today! 5 days of digital drama analysis, enhancing #DraCor, and celebrating #OpenScience with participants from around the world at @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social. Programme: summit.dracor.org @temporal-communities.de @unipotsdam.bsky.social

#DH2025: Last session before the keynote, @lucagiovannini.bsky.social presents his approach to operationalizing dramatic texts. Tracing key components of plays from #Aristotle to Russian #Formalism to modern literary theory, he investigates how to #operationalize plays using #vectorization. 🎭 #drama

What are the key components of a #play? 🎭 #DH2025: @lucagiovannini.bsky.social takes us on a tour through centuries of thinking from #Aristotle’s #Poetics, through Russian formalism, to modern literary theory and unpacks the question offering a fresh perspective. #drama #operationalization #CLS

#DH2025: What are we really measuring when we count words? @artjomshl.bsky.social, @philaut.bsky.social & @plechac.bsky.social show how different meters distinctly shape seemingly unrelated feature distributions across Czech, German & Russian #poetry. Their main finding: Mind the meter! #CLS
