通过对约瑟夫·康拉德《黑暗之心》的文体分析，说明了简单定量文本和语料库数据的文学价值。简要讨论了本书的文化和文学方面。然后表明，有关单个单词和反复出现的短语的频率和分布的数据不仅可以为该书的广泛接受的文学解释提供更详细的描述基础，而且还可以识别文学批评家似乎没有注意到的重要语言特征。这一论点对语言学家和文学批评家对数量文体学的怀疑做出了回应。
A stylistic analysis of Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness is used to illustrate the literary value of simple quantitative text and corpus data. Cultural and literary aspects of the book are briefly discussed. It is then shown that data on the frequencies and distributions of individual words and recurrent phraseology can not only provide a more detailed descriptive basis for widely accepted literary interpretations of the book, but also identify significant linguistic features which literary critics seem not to have noticed. The argument provides a response to scepticism of quantitative stylistics from both linguists and literary critics.
