520 8  Fiction has a major social impact, not least because it co
       -shapes the image that society has of various social 
       groups. Drawing on a collection of 170 contemporary Dutch-
       language novels, 'Character Constellations' presents a 
       range of data-driven, statistical models to study 
       depictions of characters in terms of gender, race, 
       ethnicity, class, age, sexuality, and other identity 
       categories. Incorporating the tools of network analysis, 
       each chapter highlights an aspect of fictional social 
       networks that affects the representation of social groups:
       their centrality, their communities, and their conflicts. 
       While reading individual novels in light of emerging 
       statistical patterns, combining the formal methods of 
       social network analysis with the interpretive tools of 
       narratology, this study shows how central societal themes 
       such as (in)equality and emancipation, integration and 
       segregation, and social mobility and class struggle are 
       foregrounded, replicated, or distorted in the Dutch 
       novel.0Showcasing what character-based critiques of 
       literary representation gain by integrating data-driven 
       methods into the practice of critical close reading, 
       'Character Constellations' contributes to societal debates
       on cultural representation and identity and the role 
       fiction and art have in those debates.
