2022-12-02: The Copenhagen cholera epidemic 1853 in contemporary
Danish newspaper prose: Some back-of-an-envelope calculations
Inspired by the fact that we were all hiding away from the
Covid-19 2020 – 2021, I wanted to take a closer look at some other
epidemic. My hope was to find patterns of change in lan- guage use
mirroring sentiments and attitudes expressed in words, bigrams and
trigrams and frequency distributions. I started to write this May
2020 and completed it about two years later.

My name is Sigfrid Lundberg. The stuff I publish here may, or may not, be of interest for anyone else.
On this site there is material on photography, music, literature and other stuff I enjoy in life. However, most of it is related to my profession as an Internet programmer and software developer within the area of digital libraries. I have been that at the Royal Danish Library, Copenhagen (Denmark) and, before that, Lund university library (Sweden).
