Contents:

Problems and presentations -- The h- and related points -- The geometry of word frequencies -- The dynamics of word classes -- Thematic concentration of the text -- Crowding, pace filling, and compactness -- Autosemantic text structure -- Distribution models -- The relation of frequency to other word properties -- Word frequency and position in sentence -- The type-token relation.

Summary: The present book finds and collects absolutely new aspects of word frequency. First, eminent characteristics (such as the h-point, first used in scientometrics, the k-, m-, and n-points) are introduced - it can be shown that the geometry of word frequency is fundamentally based on them. Furthermore, various indicators of text properties are proposed for the first time, such as thematic concentration, autosemantic text compactness, autosemantic density, etc. In detail, the autosemantic structure of a given text is evaluated by means of a graph representation and its properties (according to a p.
