Faculty Colloquium

Dr. David Puelz: Text as Data

Can we learn something about a text without reading it? I’ll show how turning language into data can reveal patterns of authorship, style, politics, and ideas, with examples ranging from political speech to Shakespeare and the Great Books.

The UATX Faculty Colloquium is a recurring forum for faculty to share their research, ideas, and areas of inquiry with the broader UATX community. Held every few weeks, each colloquium will bring together faculty, staff, and students for thoughtful presentations and spirited discussion on topics spanning the humanities, sciences, and beyond. The Colloquium reflects UATX’s commitment to the fearless pursuit of truth through open inquiry and civil discourse. By creating space for the lively clash of ideas and perspectives, these conversations aim to challenge assumptions, sharpen thinking, and spark meaningful debate within our internal community.
