[…] When I started digging through the lyrics, I was curious about two things: the relationships between the main characters, and the recurring phrases associated with those characters.

So I went through every single line in Hamilton (twice 😱 ) and recorded who sang each line, as well as who that line may have been directed towards. I’ve noted every phrase that was sung more than once across more than one song, and grouped them into broad themes*. You can find my lovingly (obsessively) curated data here.

To explore the data, I created a visual tool to filter the lines by any combination of characters, conversations, and themes. The insights were amazing, and I’m excited to share with you both the visual tool and my analysis of Hamilton with it.

^{*Though I am unconscious of intentional error, I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors.}
