Muralidharan and Hearst claim that WordSeer fills a specific gap in text analysis tools because WordSeer was designed with the specifics of literary research questions in mind. This stands in opposition to the appropriation of general text analysis software to answer literary questions. Muralidharan and Hearst conceptualize WordSeer as a tool that encourages scholarly queries, provides tools for both distant and close reading, and works within the exploratory process of reading, interpreting, and understanding. In order to demonstrate this, Muralidharan and Hearst present a case study using Shakespeare{\textquoteright}s corpus and the research question {\textquotedblleft}what are some things that are his and some things that are hers?{\textquotedblright}},
