About
This dataset features a curated collection of labelled phrases from renowned British authors, spanning from the 14th to the 21st centuries. The content has been carefully extracted sentence by sentence using Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques. Each entry is meticulously labelled with the writer's name, the title of the book, and the century in which it was written. A unique index number is assigned to each writer, facilitating the analysis of sequential phrase patterns. This dataset is designed with no missing information and includes works from celebrated authors such as William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, Virginia Woolf, Jane Austen, and J. K. Rowling. It serves as a valuable resource for various analytical and model-building tasks.
Columns
The dataset comprises four primary columns:
- Sentence: A sample of a meaningful sentence, representing the extracted phrases from literary works.
- Name of writer: The name of the British author from whom the sentence was extracted.
- Name of Book: The title of the book from which the sentence originates.
- Century: The century to which the literary work belongs. All columns are merged together without any missing data.
