The Fiction2 Danish Literature Corpus

🌡️📖 Danish literary sentiment
This repository holds the data for comparing Sentiment Analysis methods on Danish literature - specifically fairy tales and religious hymns of the 19th century. Our study compares human annotations to the continuous valence scores of both transformer- and dictionary-based sentiment analysis methods to assess their performance, seeking to understand how distinct methods handle the language of Danish prose and poetry.
🔎 What is included
- Original and modernized Danish text
- Continuous valence annotation (0-10) by human annotators (n=2-3) per sentence/verse
- Automatic annotation scores per sentence/verse (using dictionary- and transformer-based Sentiment Analysis tools)
This data allows for the comparison of human/human and human/model sentiment scoring on Danish literary texts.

🔬 Data
We use two datasets: i) H.C. Andersen fairy tales, and ii) Religious hymns
| | No. texts | No. annotations | No. words | Mean no. verses/sents per text | Period | |-------------|-----|------|--------|--------------|------------| | HCA | 3 | 791 | 18,910 | 263.7 | 1837-1847 | | Hymns | 65 | 1,914 | 10,303 | 32.9 | 1798-1873 |
📖 Documentation
Code for the hymns and fairy tales analysis (separately) -- annotator agreement and human/model correlations -- is available in this folder, while the SHAP values analysis of RoBERTa scores is available in a seperate GitHub repository.
