Abstract: |
Just as digital technology enables the realization of Weltliteratur in ways that potentially dismantle classical publishing and translation hierarchies, it also offers a different perspective on the study of literature. Such study can only be conducted by scholars who are capable of and willing to pose questions based on specific theoretical models, combining quantitative with qualitative analysis and broadening the field of inquiry. For example, using electronic corpora of texts, literary qualities themselves are examined as deviations from everyday language; themes are studied across long historical periods and multiple languages; stylistics are analyzed; issues of textual authorship are resolved; and questions of characterization, narrativity, prosody, and rhythm are highlighted. On one hand, discourse analysis, and on the other, visualization through diagrams, support at both micro- and macro-levels a text-centered yet simultaneously sociological approach to texts in their historicity.
