This book focusses on computer methodologies as a way of investigating language and character in literary texts. Both theoretical and practical, it surveys investigations into characterization in literary linguistics and personality in social psychology, before carrying out a computational analysis of Virginia Woolf’s experimental novel The Waves.
During Virginia Woolf's lifetime Britain's position in the world changed, and so did the outlook of its people.

How do we feel for others? Must we try to understand other minds? Do we have to respect others' autonomy, or even their individuality?

Lawrence, and Vernon Lee (the first novelist to use the word 'empathy'), Kirsty Martin explores how modernist writers thought about questions of sympathetic response.
