bible_nouns — Bible noun phrases

Description

Co-occurrences of proper nouns (people and places) in the verses of the King James Version of the Bible. C. Römhild recorded 1773 proper nouns, and tallied 63,779 occasions in which pairs of them appeared in the same verse; together with C. Harrison, he used the data to produce visualizations of the Bible. The data were distributed by L. C. Freeman on his network data page at the University of California, Irvine (no longer online), from which this version was obtained via the Internet Archive.

An undirected edge (i, j) indicates that the nouns i and j appear together in at least one verse.

The network has the following properties:

  • (Node) name: the proper noun (in lower case).
  • (Edge) weight: the number of verses in which the two nouns appear together.
