Thomas Pynchon's style has dazzled and bewildered readers and
critics since the 1960s, and this book employs computational
methods from the digital humanities to reveal heretofore unknown
stylistic trends over the course of Pynchon's career, as well as
challenge critical assumptions regarding foregrounded and
supposedly "Pynchonesque" stylistic features: ambiguity/vagueness,
acronyms, ellipsis marks, profanity, and archaic stylistics in
Mason & Dixon. As the first book-length stylistic or
computational stylistic examination of Pynchon's oeuvre, Thomas
Pynchon and the Digital Humanities provides a groundwork of
stylistic experiments and interpretations, with over 60 graphs and
tables, presented in a manner in which both technical and
non-technical audiences may follow.
