Let’s refine again, based on what we have learned from our broadened search. We are only interested in English horror tales.

Notably, not all subjects listed on the LSCH website appear in gutenberg_works. It seems the safest strategy is to grepl for a general term and refine from there, as in the example above.

LCC

‘LCC’ is another subject system. Clicking the link gives you a list of subjects and their corresponding subject codes. Gutenberg does not consistently index LCC subjects at sublevels, so it is best practice to search by general subject. Let’s take a look at texts on forestry.

forest <- gutenberg_subjects %>% filter(subject == "SD")
forest
gutenberg_id subject_type subject
11587 lcc SD
17645 lcc SD
18680 lcc SD
20778 lcc SD
23029 lcc SD
31367 lcc SD
35419 lcc SD
37359 lcc SD
37595 lcc SD
42124 lcc SD
str(forest)
## tibble [10 × 3] (S3: tbl_df/tbl/data.frame)

##  $ subject_type: chr [1:10] "lcc" "lcc" "lcc" "lcc" ...
##  $ subject     : chr [1:10] "SD" "SD" "SD" "SD" ...
##  - attr(*, "date_updated")= Date[1:1], format: "2016-05-05"


It looks like there are 10 entries under forestry. But do they have text? Here’s some code that filters gutenberg_metadata for items matched by gutenberg_id in my object ‘forest’, only returning those that have text.

Text by LCC Subject

test <- filter(gutenberg_metadata, gutenberg_id %in% forest$gutenberg_id, has_text == 
    TRUE)
glimpse(test)
## Rows: 10
## Columns: 8
## $ gutenberg_id        <int> 11587, 17645, 18680, 20778, 23029, 31367, 35419, …

It looks like all 10 forestry titles have text. Let’s double check. Here, I have copied the above code and changed has_text to FALSE.

test1 <- filter(gutenberg_metadata, gutenberg_id %in% forest$gutenberg_id, has_text == FALSE)
glimpse(test1)
## Rows: 0
## Columns: 8
## $ gutenberg_id        <int> 
## $ title               <chr> 
## $ author              <chr> 
## $ gutenberg_author_id <int> 
## $ language            <chr> 
## $ gutenberg_bookshelf <chr> 
## $ rights              <chr> 
## $ has_text            <lgl>

What’s next?

We can play with these datasets, joining by specific variables or just gluing together. Below, I have included a code snippet in which I demonstrate some of this manipulation, annotated below.

start <- c("Tolstoy, Leo, graf", "Dostoyevsky, Fyodor")  #create character vector of authors of interest
