Punctuation Patterns in <i>Finnegans Wake</i> by James Joyce Are Largely Translation-Invariant by Krzysztof Bartnicki, Stanisław Drożdż, Jarosław Kwapień, Tomasz Stanisz

“…Recent previous research shows that James Joyce’s famous novel <i>Finnegans Wake</i> is subject to such an extreme distribution from the Weibull family that the corresponding hazard function is clearly decreasing. At the same time, the distances of sentence-ending punctuation marks, determining the sentence length variability, have an almost perfect multifractal organization to an extent found nowhere else in the literature thus far. …”
