Basic Reports

Size & Scope

First, the simple things. Your study carrel was created through the submission of a [SINGLE URL|FILE OF URLS|FILE FROM YOUR COMPUTER|ZIP FILE]. This ultimately resulted in a collection of 40 item(s). The original versions of these items have been saved in a cache, and each of them have been transformed & saved as a set of plain text files. All of the following analysis has been done against these plain text files.

Your study carrel is 522,594 words long. [0] Each item in your study carrel is, on average, 13,064 words long. [1] If you dig deeper, then you might want to save yourself some time by reading a shorter item. On the other hand, if your desire is for more detail, then you might consider reading a longer item. The following illustrate the overall size of your study carrel.

Readability

On a scale from 0 to 100, where 0 is very difficult and 100 is very easy, your documents have an average readability score of 96.

The following illustrate the overall readability of your study carrel.

Word Frequencies

By merely counting & tabulating the frequency of individual words or phrases, you can begin to get an understanding of your carrel's "aboutness". Excluding "stop words", some of the more frequent words include: [3]

one, like, will, now, day, us, men, shall, old, night, war, little, see, may, man, come, never, heart, eyes, long, dead, love, know, go, time, god, still, yet, must, life, world, great, death, back, sea, red, last, light, came, away, way, home, well, said, good, every, made, right, white, face

Using the three most frequent words, the three files containing all of those words the most are A Treasury of War Poetry: British and American Poems of the World War 1914-1917, Poems, and In Flanders Fields, and Other Poems.

The most frequent two-word phrases (bigrams) include:

let us, far away, come back, thousand years, new york, ten thousand, red cross, john mccrae, give us, must go, one day, king solomon, last night, long ago, old man, every day, new england, great war, years ago, will never, flanders fields, every one, shall come, left behind, united states, kaiser bill, und de, small craft, every time, double time, first time, shall know, dead men, will come, go forth, hundred years, rupert brooke, alan seeger, will find, whole world, two years, sir owen, make us, winds blow, britty soon, guards came, every man, old men, go home, british empire

And the three file that use all of the three most frequent phrases are Over Here The Great War in Verse and Prose, and The Complete Poems of Francis Ledwidge with Introductions by Lord Dunsany.

While often deemed superficial or sophomoric, rudimentary frequencies and their associated "word clouds" can be quite insightful:

Keywords

Sets of keywords -- statistically significant words -- can be enumerated by comparing the relative frequency of words with the number of times the words appear in an entire corpus. Some of the most statistically significant keywords in your study carrel include:

man, god, like, day, war, france, death, old, soldier, lord, heart, england, thy, night, little, time, love, john, eye, wind, thou, song, sergeant, new, london, king, kaiser, good, german, face, christ, bill, april, america, sweet, right, paris, illustration, high, french, fall, ermyntrude, english, dead, come, canada, boy, beauty, army, |he

And now word clouds really begin to shine:

Topic Modeling

Topic modeling is another popular approach to connoting the aboutness of a corpus. If your study carrel could be summed up in a single word, then that word might be like, and Over Here is most about that word.

If your study carrel could be summed up in three words ("topics") then those words and their significantly associated titles include:

1. like - Rhymes of a Red Cross Man
2. like - Poems
3. thy - Ardours and Endurances; Also, A Faun''s Holiday & Poems and Phantasies

If your study carrel could be summed up in five topics, and each topic were each denoted with three words, then those topics and their most significantly associated files would be:

1. like, old, day - Poems
2. like, men, shall - A Treasury of War Poetry: British and American Poems of the World War 1914-1917
3. ve, ll, like - War Rhymes by Wayfarer
4. thy, shall, heart - Ardours and Endurances; Also, A Faun''s Holiday & Poems and Phantasies
5. illustration, war, men - The Great War in Verse and Prose
