Description

We test the Aesthetic-Affective Potential (AAP), a word-embedding-based predictor for the perceived beauty of words. In a SentiArt context, AAP has also been shown to predict readers' liking of narrative passages. We investigate AAP and valence in the context of a large Dutch corpus of novels and their reviews.
