Mythical Places

This wordcloud visualises the frequency with which different mythical places appear in the TEXTCOURT database. The frequency is calculated by the entity code (so synonyms and variant characters are accounted for), and the primary name of the entity is displayed in the wordcloud.
Only places occurring over 10 times are visualised.

Non-Generic Characters

This wordcloud visualises the frequency with which different non-generic characters (i.e., those with a specific identity) appear in the TEXTCOURT database. The frequency is calculated by the entity code (so synonyms and variant characters are accounted for), and the primary name of the entity is displayed in the wordcloud. Only characters occurring over 75 times are visualised.

Generic Characters

This wordcloud visualises the frequency with which different generic characters (i.e., those with no specific identity) appear in the TEXTCOURT database. The frequency is calculated by the entity code (so synonyms and variant characters are accounted for), and the primary name of the entity is displayed in the wordcloud. Only characters occurring over 50 times are visualised.
