520 3  On a near-daily basis, data is being used to narrate our 
       lives. Categorizing algorithms draw from amassed personal 
       data to assign narrative destinies to individuals at 
       crucial junctures, simultaneously predicting and shaping 
       the paths of our lives. Data is commonly assumed to bring 
       us closer to objectivity, but the narrative paths these 
       algorithms assign seem, more often than not, to replicate 
       biases about who an individual is and could become. While 
       the social effects of such algorithmic logics seem new and
       newly urgent to consider, Collecting Lives looks to the 
       late nineteenth and early twentieth century US to provide 
       an instructive prehistory to the underlying question of 
       the relationship between data, life, and narrative. 
       Rodrigues contextualizes the application of data 
       collection to human selfhood in the late nineteenth and 
       early twentieth century US in order to uncover a modernist
       aesthetic of data that offers an alternative to the 
       algorithmic logic pervading our sense of data's revelatory
       potential. Examining the work of W. E. B. Du Bois, Henry 
       Adams, Gertrude Stein, and Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Rodrigues
       asks how each of these authors draw from their work in 
       sociology, history, psychology, and journalism to 
       formulate a critical data aesthetic as they attempt to 
       answer questions of identity around race, gender, and 
       nation both in their research and their life writing. 
       These data-driven modernists not only tell different life 
       stories with data, they tell life stories differently 
       because of data.
