A simple approach would be to reduce the analysis to mentions of the character by its proper name as these are easy to retrieve. A more elaborate solution requires coreference annotation, identifying all mentions of a character in the text, irrespective of their form. Using the example of the novel Corpus Delicti by the German author Juli Zeh, we compare these two approaches and show the added value of coreference annotation.enhttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/coreferencecharacter analysisliterary studiesnarrative textsAllgemeines, WissenschaftConference Paperurn:nbn:de:gbv:830-882.04708710.15480/882.2596https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0074-2155-110.15480/882.2596Conference Paper
