The visualization looks great! I found it interesting how you carefully considered your data choices—cleaning the dataset and omitting certain words—to shape interpretation within a digital humanities context. The color-coded themes effectively highlight Stoic ideas like nature and ethics. Your work also invites reflection on how Aurelius’s philosophy evolves across the text and opens space for multiple interpretations of the categories.
