QSS 30.16 Cultural Analytics

This course is an introductory course and assumes no prior knowledge of literary studies, critical approaches, statistics, or data analysis. It provides an overview of emergent quantitative methods and theories used by humanists to study data in text and text as data. As we examine these objects, we'll ask questions about the differences, in terms of methodology and interpretive practices, between the social sciences and the humanities. In developing answers to these questions, we will explore recent quantitative methods alongside traditional methods of humanistic inquiry. The goal of the course is to enable students to evaluate data, methods, and interpretations produced from quantitative research in the humanities and to conduct their own research.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
