“…Catherine's mental instability, for example, portrayed in the novel, is one side of her insecure personality as she continually hesitates to the end to believe Henry's love is true. Through themes such as love and death perhaps a comparison can be made between the heroine Catherine with others such as Jane in the novel Jane Eyre as the two women, although almost a century apart, struggle in a patriarchial society for 'freedom' (Sadaka and Panossian 2022) and for psychological peace of mind. Corpus analysis can help in objectively visualizing relationships through words among characters over time.…”

Evaluating learners’ writing quality has been quite challenging. One important indicator of writing quality is the use of lexis in texts. However, more efficient evaluative guidelines should be explored. Although corpus-based lexical studies have provided analyses of various text genres for word frequencies and keywords indicative of lexical density, and thus writing quality for teaching/learning purposes, learner literary texts remain under researched. This study explores the word frequencies in a corpus of N=206 L1 Arabic learners’ literary essays written in English in one literature course at an English medium university in Lebanon. Lextutor platform was used to analyze the word frequency profiles which indicate the lexical density level and Voyant Tools platform to analyze the content keyword profiles, which preview thematic representations and character features. Main findings indicated a dichotomy between literary knowledge and language proficiency. The content keywords previewed themes and character features adequately which showed the learners’ knowledge of the literary text. The word frequency profiles, however, indicated a low lexical density and, thus, a low language proficiency level. Implications for pedagogy and recommendations are made for further researching this “controversial dichotomy” in learners’ literary essays in developing the literary edge for well-rounded learners versus improving their language proficiency level.

The goal of this bibliometric analysis is to summarize publications on the contributions of a higher education university in arts, humanities, and social sciences and evaluate their citation status. Ninety-one publications were indexed in Scopus and WOS databases between 2018 and 2022. All publications appeared in 69 different journals, books, and conferences. About 51.6% of all studies were single-authored. The median number of publications per author was 27.01 ± 48.0 and that of citations was 223.0 ± 764.0. Positive correlations were observed between the journal’s CiteScore and authors’ count with citation number ( r2 = .625 and .207 respectively; p < .005). Publications written by ≥3 authors with international collaboration received the maximum number of citations ( p < .005). Moreover, the mean number of citations for publications written by associate or assistant professors was significantly higher than those composed by their peers ( p = .033). Defining the field of arts and humanities remains a difficult exercise, because of its blurry theoretical background. Thus, a repetitive evaluation of its current status remains essential.
