Quantitative Narrative Analysis focuses on the following issues: 1. the fundamental features of narrative (as a specific type of text genre with certain invariant linguistic properties), 2. how the invariant properties of narrative can be used to structure narrative information in ways that basic qualitative information can then be analyzed quantitatively (story grammars, or Subject-Action-Object and respective modifiers, such as Time and Space of Action), 3. reliability (and how the computer and linguistic framework of the approach greatly increase data reliability), 4. data analysis (the book does not focus on general problems of data analysis, it will show how textual data can be analyzed with numbers).
