Scientists have found intriguing evidence of fractal structures in classic books. This discovery is more prove that fractals are embedded deeply in not only nature but also our language and the way we tell story.
“All of the examined works showed self-similarity in terms of organisation of the lengths of sentences. Some were more expressive – here The Ambassadors by Henry James stood out … correlations were evident, and therefore these texts were the construction of a fractal,”
– Dr Paweł Oświęcimka from the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences”
