The 'great iconoclast of literary criticism' ("Guardian") reinvents the study of the novel. Franco Moretti argues heretically that literature scholars should stop reading books and start counting, graphing, and mapping them instead. He insists that such a move could bring new lustre to a tired field, one that in some respects is among "the most backwards disciplines in the academy." Literary study, he argues, has been random and unsystematic. For any given period, scholars focus on a select group of a mere few hundred texts: the canon. As a result, they have allowed a narrow distorting slice of history to pass for the total picture. Moretti offers bar charts, maps, and time lines instead, developing the idea of "distant reading" into a full-blown experiment in literary historiography, where the canon disappears into the larger literary system. Charting entire genres - the epistolary, the gothic, and the historical novel - as well as the literary output of countries such as Japan, Italy, Spain, and Nigeria, he shows how literary history looks significantly different from what is commonly supposed and how the concept of aesthetic form can be radically redefined.

挺新穎的文學史研究方式，Darwinian evolution的思路，就是感覺稍微有點小扯。
评分comp lit和romance study的大牛們錶示很淡定，福柯、德裏達都是浮雲，對麵走來的cs, statistician,乃至人類學的‘被噎死’bayesian學慘遭退貨。

评分被校長擄走瞭...嗚嗚嗚
评分Introduction/Summary published in New Left Review. 抽象模型如圖錶地圖演變譜係等構成的定量文學史研究，完全鄙視虛頭八腦的literary criticism.
