Description: Aphra Behn (1640 1689) prolific and popular playwright poet novelist translator has a fascinating and extensive corpus of literature that plays a key role in literary history. Quantitative Literary Analysis of the Works of Aphra Behn: Words of Passion offers what no book has done to date an analysis of all Behn's literary output. It examines the author's use of words in terms of frequencies and distributions and stacks the words in context to read Behn's word usage synchronically. Using this experimental method the book brings digital humanities into literary criticism to enhance our understanding and appreciation of literature beyond what is possible in diachronic reading and scholarship less supported by digital means. The empirical approach works in collaboration with existing scholarship to understand Behn's distinct language of love and extreme passions across her genres.
