研究実績の概要 |
Part of my study was read at a research seminar held at the University of Birmingham, UK, on 25 Sept 2014. The title of my presentation was "A Digital Humanities Analysis of Christianity in the 19th-Century British Fiction."
The following are the papers written in 2014 and to be published in 2015. (a) "An Effect-Size Analysis of Christianity in the Fiction of the Bronte Sisters." 『ブロンテと19世紀イギリス』 Osaka: Osaka Kyoiku Tosho, 2015. 75-97. (b) "A Topic Modelling Analysis of the Sacred and the Secular in _The Life of Charlotte Bronte_.”_Evil and Its Variations in the Works of Gaskell: A Sesquicentennial Commemorative Volume_. Ed. Mitsuharu Matsuoka. Osaka: Osaka Kyoiku Tosho, 2015. 217-32. (c) 「コーパス文体論によるギャスケル短編作品の解析:そのキリスト教性について」『エリザベス・ギャスケル中・短編小説研究』日本ギャスケル協会編 大阪:大阪教育図書, 2015. 41-52.
A few of the unique discoveries made by my Digital Humanities research into Christianity in the 19th-century British fiction are as below: (a) Gaskell, C. Bronte, E. Bronte, and A. Bronte all use the word "God" more frequently than "Christ." (b) C. Bronte's use of God-related words is most frequent among the four authors. (c) Among C. Bronte's eight effect-size keywords, seven are relevant to nature, and only "spirit" to the Christian creed.

次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
The first reason is probably my unfamiliarity with the way of using the Research grant money, since this was my first experience of winning it. Secondly, no personnel expenditure and remuneration were spent, since most of the manual works were done by myself to save money. Thirdly, sufficient money must be reserved for 2015 when I am planning to attend an international conference, which will cost more than 300,0000 yen. Fourthly, the indirect costs were unspent for the purchase of a high-quality portable PC to be placed in Media Seminar Room I in 2015.
