Abstract

The objective of this exercise is to use the visualization tools of Voyant Tools (voyant-tools.org) to extract some statistics about vocabulary –most frequent words, distribution of certain words throughout the given text, most common placement trends– in two literary works: the Homeric Odyssey and the Adán Buenosayres by Leopoldo Marechal.
This is a very preliminary exploration in search of the eventual identification of terminological similarities and differences (as well as the survey of non-comparative tendencies within each document), since although there are great distances between both –in the first place, to mention what more evident, because a work translated from Greek is being compared with another originally written in Spanish–, there is also a constant allusion to the odyssey journey interwoven in Marechal's novel that enables the question
