Abstract
To quantify the style markers of any writer is a laborious and erroneous task in close reading, while distant reading with the Voyant Summary tool presents stylometric features precisely. The current study employs the Voyant summary tool to analyse data through the lens of Stefan Sinclair and Geoffery Rockwell's Hermeneutica Theory (2016). The Voyant Summary tool performs text mining of Coelho's style markers; total words, unique words, vocabulary density, the average length of sentences and the most frequent words. Coelho's vocabulary density ranges from 0.075 to 0.263 words. Colhelo’s average length of sentences ranges from 13 to 26.2 words per sentence. The dialogic writing style is evident with the word 'said’. Moreover, themes of love and life are the most repeated ones. To enhance the readability of his works, he refrains from archaic vocabulary. The Zahir shows the lowest vocabulary density, while Adultery reveals the highest vocabulary density.
