With an emphasis on exploring measurable aspects of ancient
narratives, Maths Meets Myths sets out to investigate age-old
material with new techniques. This book collects, for the first
time, novel quantitative approaches to studying sources from the
past, such as chronicles, epics, folktales, and myths. It
contributes significantly to recent efforts in bringing together
natural scientists and humanities scholars in investigations aimed
at achieving greater understanding of our cultural inheritance.
Accordingly, each contribution reports on a modern quantitative
approach applicable to narrative sources from the past, or
describes those which would be amenable to such treatment and why
they are important. This volume is a unique state-of-the-art
compendium on an emerging research field which also addresses
anyone with interests in quantitative approaches to humanities.
