论文摘要
《巫师》是Andrzej Sapkowski的幻想小说系列，启发了多台电脑游戏，甚至在2019年在Netflix上推出，最新的季节于2021年12月播出。诸如Witcher之类的虚构故事情节可以通过网络科学来很好地汇总和简化，并提取了一个复杂的一系列活动。换句话说，网络映射和数据科学可以将数千页转换为一个简单的视觉，社交图。这种示例性的可视化还通过发现隐藏的模式（例如，在数百人及其无数遭遇的相互作用中）来突出网络科学的力量。由于这些方法也可以应用于小说及其适应性，因此它们还允许我们比较从演员到地块的原始作品和改编作品。因此，在本文中，我提供了有关巫师的社会特征，比较小说和电视节目的社交网络分析。
The Witcher, a fantasy novel series by Andrzej Sapkowski, has inspired multiple computer games and was even launched on Netflix in 2019, with the latest season airing in December 2021. Fictional storylines such as The Witcher, can be well summarized and simplified by network science, extracting the backbone of a complex series of events. In other words, network mapping and data science can transform thousands of pages into one simple, visual, social map. This exemplary visualization also highlights the power of network science by uncovering hidden patterns, such as influencers, hubs, and cliques in the interplay of hundreds of people and their countless encounters. As these methods can be applied to novels and their adaptations as well, they also allow us to compare the original and the adapted pieces, from the cast to the plots. Therefore, in this article, I provide a social network analysis about the societal characteristics of The Witcher, comparing the novels and the TV show.
