本文首先对“provincialism”一词在《牛津英语词典》在线上的所有词条进行全文搜索，通过19世纪的数字化小说追踪“provincialism”，窃听该词在大英图书馆19世纪收藏和哈西信托数字图书馆收集的165部19世纪小说中的参考文献数据集中的使用方式。重点不是对少数小说、小说亚类型或单一小说的重复进行仔细的阅读，而是对大量19世纪数字化小说中“乡土主义”一词的多个简短引用进行仔细的阅读。注意力集中在文本上的小，19世纪的小说家在一个具有本地和全球影响力的大众文化媒介中使用这个词的短暂而有力的用法。研究结果提供了一个关系和多维的图片，从文本上的小聚合，因为它发挥了与阶级，性别，城市，英国的四个国家，大英帝国和更广泛的世界。
Beginning with a full text search for the term ‘provincialism’ across all entries in theOED Online, this article tracks ‘provincialism’ through the digitized fiction of the nineteenth century, eavesdropping on the ways in which the term was used in a dataset of references drawn from 165 nineteenth-century novels brought together from the British Library 19thCentury Collection and the Hathi Trust Digital Library. The focus is not on a close reading of a small number of novels, a novel subgenre, or iterations of a single novel, but on a close reading of multiple short, references to the term ‘provincialism’ drawn from a large number of nineteenth-century digitized novels. Attention is concentrated on the textually small, the fleeting yet potent uses of the term deployed by nineteenth-century novelists writing in a mass cultural medium with a local and global reach. The findings offer up a relational and multidimensional picture of the term aggregated from the textually small, as it plays out in relation to class, gender, the city, the four nations of the UK, the British Empire and the wider world.
