Novel Perspectives: A Computational Approach to Dutch Fiction and Gender Equality, 1870-present.
Start a new DMP in Loading
Is fiction a mirror of society? Or do stories produce new realities? This project examines how Dutch novels from the late 19th century to the present imagined and perhaps even fostered the emancipation of women in society. It combines two aspects that are often studied in isolation: (1) literary descriptions of gender across time and (2) the changing position of women in modern Dutch society. Using computer-driven text-analyses of large-scale corpora, this project aims to reveal the extent to which fiction precedes or follows shifts in society.
