Литературная криминалистика: авторство или плагиат?

Abstract

It is possible to prove the authorship with the help of some methods of mathematical linguistics, e.g. that of «Chi-criterion». Based on the frequency of occurrence of simple prepositions in the text it was proved that Bahtin's texts were not written by Voloshinov or Medvedev. This result may stop the endless discussions of the authorship of the texts by Bahtin.
