As past and present technical, scientific, literary books
and documents are digitalized, more sophisticated tools are
required for exploring this textual ocean. Computer assisted
reading and analysis of text (CARAT), as practiced in social sciences and the humanities, is more than navigating, recalling, summarizing, and filtering, tools. Even text mining
strategies have not been satisfying for CARAT. For indeed,
the aim of serious CARAT is more complex. Its ultimate
objective is assisting the interpretation of texts. For this sophisticated links among tools have to be explored for assisting thematic, conceptual and inferential analysis of content.
