Hermeneutica: Computer-Assisted Interpretation in the Humanities (MIT Press)
Friday, 01 July 2022

In this book Geoffrey Rockwell and Stéfan Sinclair introduce text analysis using computer-assisted interpretive practices. It offers theoretical chapters about text analysis, presents a set of analytical tools, called Voyant, that instantiate the theory, and provides example essays that illustrate the use of these tools.

Voyant allows users to integrate interpretation into texts by creating hermeneutica—small embeddable “toys” that can be woven into essays published online or into such online writing environments as blogs or wikis.
