A quick response from me on some work to look into:

> Andy Reagan > 11:29 AM > > Tyler, > > Thanks for reaching out! There are a number of people working the area whose work is really interesting, and this area is broadly called the "digital humanities". That name, and some of the original ideas were inspired by Moretti (see the book "Distant Reading"). You could also start by checking out the work being done by Ben Schmidt, David Bamman, and David Elson- I've seen excellent papers from all of them. > > If you let me know more specifically what you're interested in, I might be able to provide some more specific resources. > > Cheers, > Andy
