Plotting Poetry 5 was the fifth meeting of an international group of scholars with a common interest in the machine-assisted exploration of poetry and poetics. The conference was hosted by the Estonian Literary Museum in Tartu between July 4 and 6, 2022, organized by Mari Sarv (Estonian Literary Museum), Maria-Kristiina Lotman (University of Tartu), Susanna Mett (Estonian Literary Museum & University of Tartu), Anne-Sophie Bories (University of Basel), Pablo Ruiz Fabo (University of Strasbourg) and Petr Plechač (Czech Academy of Sciences). The conference comprised 16 presentations by scholars from 11 different countries. This year’s conference theme was popular forms of poetry, such as folkloric poetry (traditional or novel), besides song lyrics (e.g. in folk, pop, or rap) and the connections between text and performance, as well as poetry delivered through new media channels like the social web. Besides this main theme, work on other topics was also presented, including on genres other than poetry; this has been traditional for the Plotting Poetry conference series as long as the research is quantitatively or computationally inspired. The present conference report is structured as follows: First, we provide an overview of the main topics covered by the conference papers. After that, individual paper summaries are presented, following the order of papers in the conference program chronologically.
