PEN Award?[edit]

Isn't there a PEN award in her name? Aristophanes68 (talk) 22:25, 9 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest, I don't know. I stumbled upon her during my creation of the Helen Hoyt article in a bid to build the web. :) Hiding T 18:16, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Method[edit]

It is anachronistic to refer to her method as "distant reading," since this method was not formally defined when she was writing, and has distinct institutional and political origins from her own scholarly methods (we would not, for instance, edit a Wikipedia page about corpus linguistics to call it "distant reading"). I understand that this terminology was based on a Modernism/Modernity article that argues for her importance in the pre-history of the current "distant reading" crazy. If someone finds this important enough to include in her Wikipedia article, then I invite them to write a section about it. But, as it stands, it is inaccurate to refer to her method as distant reading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Loadedonloaded (talk • contribs) 03:57, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
