Abstract / Description of output
Trading Consequences is an interdisciplinary research project between historians, computational linguists and
visualization specialists. We use text mining and visualisations to explore the growth of the global commodity
trade in the nineteenth century. Feedback from a group of environmental historians during a workshop
provided essential information to adapt advanced text mining and visualisation techniques to historical
research. Expert feedback is an essential tool for effective interdisciplinary research in the digital humanities.
