Thesis for BA Philosophy of a Specific Discipline. Supervised by Andrea Sangiacomo.

I wrote this thesis for my BA in Philosophy of a Specific Discipline. The title of the thesis is: "Modelling the history of early modern natural philosophy: the impact of Newton’s account of force British natural philosophy in the 17th and 18th century". All of this was done in R. The most interesting file is the ngramAnalysis.R in which I create a network of words that are most associated with the word "force". The code can be run by loading in all files in one directory and then running ngramAnalysis.R, this automatically runs the required other files.
