How “domestic” is a #Victorian novel?
Guhr et al. fine-tune a #LanguageModel to detect implicit domestic spaces – rooms, gardens, even #ships – beyond obvious keywords like 'house' or 'home.' – A new way to read #19th-century #fiction through the lens of #space and study the rise of #domesticity.

How deep is my inner-self self that I can't detect it?
Quelle est la profondeur de mon moi intérieur pour que je ne puisse pas le détecter ?

A quotation from Edna St. Vincent Millay

Was it for this I uttered prayers,
   And sobbed and cursed and kicked the stairs,
That now, domestic as a plate,
   I should retire at half-past eight?

Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) American poet
Poem (1920), “Grown-Up,” A Few Figs from Thistles, (1921, expanded ed.)

Bear in There
- by Shel Silverstein

There's a polar bear
In our Frigidaire—
He likes it 'cause it's cold in there.
With his seat in the meat
And his face in the fish
And his big hairy paws
In the buttery dish,
He's nibbling the noodles,
He's munching the rice,
He's slurping the soda,
He's licking the ice.
And he lets out a roar
If you open the door.
And it gives me a scare
To know he's in there—
That polary bear
In our Fridgitydaire.
