सार

The utilization of digital corpora for literary analysis has revolutionized the study of literature, providing a quantitative approach that complements traditional qualitative analysis. By harnessing the power of large text databases, researchers can detect patterns, trends, and linguistic features across genres, authors, and historical periods. This paper explores the integration of corpora into literary studies, outlining key methodologies, applications, and case studies. We delve into how corpus-based approaches can be employed to analyze themes, authorial style, and historical language change, emphasizing their potential to uncover new insights in literary analysis.
