Santiago Ortiz has a new interactive visualization showing the many intricate character relationships in Homer’s Iliad.
There are two views. One is a network diagram above, with characters sized according to number of connections with others, and a matrix view accompanies. The network has sort of a fisheye effect as you mouse over, which I think is there to make it easier to browse, but as it goes with these sort of visualizations, there are still some challenges as you try to get more details or look at smaller nodes.
