Fabula-NET revealing biased characteristics of Danish reviewing practices

Recent research by Fabula-NET shows that Danish literary criticism is characterized by a gender imbalance.

Based on a data set containing 57.369 book reviews of fiction from 2010 to 2021 obtained from bog.nu (a site containing all Danish book review gradings from the preceding decade), the research group has examined the division of review gradings in terms of gender across different media types.

The study is part of Fabula-NET’s broader interdisciplinary research project investigating notions of literary quality and reader preferences. Center for Humanities Computing takes part in the Fabula-NET project
