The geography of tragedy
Allusions to places were collected from the dialogue of twenty-two early modern English tragedies and projected onto maps to detect patterns in the plays‘ geographies as a set, by authorial grouping, and by individual play. The sample was composed of eleven Shakespeare tragedies and eleven randomly selected non-Shakespeare tragedies. In the full sample set the greatest concentration of place names was in the eastern Mediterranean. Places in Italy…
Towards a National Data Architecture for Cultural Collections
This article summarises the aims, methods, information architecture, outputs, and innovations of the Australian Cultural Data Engine (ACD-Engine), a project that harnesses leading cultural databases to build bridges to research, industry, and government. The project investigates digital heritage collections, data ontologies, and interoperability, building an information architecture to enhance the open sharing of Australian cultural data. Working…
The enigmatic Bartholomew Lloyd alias Frederick Dalton
This is the third article recording our investigations of the authorship and authors of Sydney Morning Herald articles on the mid-nineteenth-century goldfields of New South Wales. Whereas the first two focused on the identification of the anonymous author and his inexplicable disappearance, this article explores the implications of our serendipitous discovery of the author’s alter ego. The man we knew as Dalton was actually Bartholomew Lloyd, who…
Identifying another goldfields reporter
In a previous article, ‘Who Wrote “A Visit to the Western Goldfields”?’, our question was left unanswered. Further stylistic analysis has confirmed that this series and two subsequent ones published in the Sydney Morning Herald in the early 1860s were by the same author. Following a strong suggestion that this mystery author may have been Frederick Dalton, writings known to be by him were incorporated into the analysis. Since the only known writi…
Who wrote ‘A Visit to the Western Goldfields’? Using Computers to Analyse Language in Historical Research
Determining the authorship of unattributed writings can be a major issue for scholars. As this article demonstrates, computational stylistics provides a valuable methodology in helping to answer the question, ‘Who wrote it?’ Gold occupied much space in the newspapers of colonial Australia in the 1850s-70s. It kept many reporters very busy. Few, however, are known by name. An exception is Charles de Boos, a prolific reporter for the Melbourne Argu…
Authors and Characters
Scholars sometimes cite the diversity of characters' speech styles as grounds for doubt about the efficacy of authorship attribution. A series of one-on-one comparisons between sets of characters from plays by five early modern English playwrights shows that while characters do vary from each other in styles of speech, authorial differentiation transcends this variation. Even when the same set of word-variables is used, and no selection or adjust…
Shakespeare's Foreign Worlds
What’s in a Name
Curtin researcher Tom Fitzgerald amassed a wealth of evidence that John Curtin wrote under the pen name ‘Vigilant’ in the early years of his editorship of the Westralian Worker. If true, the personal and literary columns penned by ‘Vigilant’ provide new insights into the inner temperament of Australia’s war time Prime Minister. Fitzgerald’s evidence for Curtin as ‘Vigilant’ is presented in this paper and the attribution is further explored by app…
Lucy Hutchinson and the Authorship of Two Seventeenth-Century Poems
Context of inquiryDavid Norbrook has recently offered strong evidence for attributing two seventeenth-century poems to Lucy Hutchinson.1 He has also invited the present authors to employ the methods of computational stylistics as an independent test of these attributions. The objects of this article, therefore, are to test the authorship of the two poems and to consider the significance of the outcome. Much the larger of the two is Order and Diso…
