“…We extended this also to arts. In the recent years we have seen an increase in large-scale quantitative studies of art, for example the attempts to measure and predict artistic success (Liu et al, 2018 ; Fraiberger, Sinatra, Resch, Riedl, & Barabási, 2018 ; Interiano et al, 2018 ) to detect significant trends in art history (Cutting, Brunick, DeLong, Iricinschi, & Candan, 2011 ; Mauch, MacCallum, Levy, & Leroi, 2015 ), or to uncover the internal patterns of art works (Elliott, 2016 ; Reagan, Mitchell, Kiley, Danforth, & Dodds, 2016 ). However, a major limitation of such studies is the data-driven approach they are often using.…”

“…In the field of literary research, there have been numerous attempts to obtain new understanding by means of corpus and quantitative methods (e.g., Algee-Hewitt et al, 2015;Burrows, 1987;Chesnokova et al, 2017;Cox & Brandwood, 1959;Elliott, 2016;Fabb & Halle, 2008;Fleay, 1874;Hoover, 2007;Matthews & Merriam, 1993;Mendenhall, 1887;Miall, 1988;Van Peer et al, 2012;Yule, 1939).

Toward a Quantitative Approach to the Specialness of Poetry: Taking Chang Hen Ge and Chang Hen Ge Zhuan as a Case Study

The differences of linguistic features between Chang Hen Ge ( Ge) and Chang Hen Ge Zhuan ( Zhuan) have rarely been mentioned in the relevant fields. Nevertheless, these differences can best highlight the specialness of poetry, for the two works were written contemporaneously by two friends on the same subject, in distinct styles. This article employs quantitative methods and indicators to provide empirical evidence for the specialness of Ge through comparisons between the two. The results show that, on the premise of expressing the same subject in different styles, Ge does have certain linguistic characteristics compared with Zhuan. Its particularity is reflected not only in fewer repeat characters and words but also in their richness, as well as in the use of more content words and fewer function words. Moreover, all of these characteristics have had a great influence on Ge’s artistic level and dissemination. Through this study, we hope that our methods provide a new perspective and shed some light on this area.
