An
introduction
to
text
analysis
using
computer-assisted
interpretive
practices,
accompanied
by
example
essays
that
illustrate
the
use
of
these
computational
tools.The
image
of
the
scholar
as
a
solitary
thinker
dates
back
at
least
to
Descartes'
Discourse
on
Method.
But
scholarly
practices
in
the
humanities
are
changing
as
older
forms
of
communal
inquiry
are
combined
with
modern
research
methods
enabled
by
the
Internet,
accessible
computing,
data
availability,
and
new
media.
Hermeneutica
introduces
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.
The
book's
companion
website,
Hermeneuti.ca,
offers
the
example
essays
with
both
text
and
embedded
interactive
panels.
The
panels
show
results
and
allow
readers
to
experiment
with
the
toys
themselves.The
use
of
these
analytical
tools
results
in
a
hybrid
essay:
an
interpretive
work
embedded
with
hermeneutical
toys
that
can
be
explored
for
technique.
The
hermeneutica
draw
on
and
develop
such
common
interactive
analytics
as
word
clouds
and
complex
data
journalism
interactives.
Embedded
in
scholarly
texts,
they
create
a
more
engaging
argument.
Moving
between
tool
and
text
becomes
another
thread
in
a
dynamic dialogue.
