News and updates from Melville’s Marginalia Online, a digital archive of books from his library at https://melvillesmarginalia.org. Photo credit: Books owned by Herman Melville and portrait by Joseph O. Eaton, *61Z-4, Houghton Library.
For our latest graphing tool, Assistant Editor and English graduate student Brandon Hurst adapted Matthew Jocker's R-coded Syuzhet sentiment analysis package with scatter plot coding to represent Melville's points of interaction with books from his library. Brandon, congratulations and well done!

New features and refinements, including Voyant Tools for encoded volumes, and a beta version of our sentiment graphing feature for Melville's copies of Arthur Schopenhauer's writings. Make a year-end tax-deductible gift to the project and help us grow in 2025 melvillesmarginalia.org/pages/support
