Stylometric study of latin theather: around with Seneca’s Octavia and Hercules Oetaeus
Abstract
From Classical Philology, an attempt has been made to address and examine the authorship and intertextual issues of works that pose problems of authorship, such as Seneca’s pieces, for example Octavia and Hercules Oetaeus. The main objective of our work is to examine by means of the RStudio “stylo” package, and, therefore, from the perspective of Digital Humanities, the authorships of Latin theater, providing qualitative and quantitative data. Undoubtedly, the remarkable thing about it is that, thanks to computers, a stylometric analysis is carried out that had not been done previously.
