As you can see from the word cloud, some of the words that stand out the most are: <i>boy<\/i>, <i>Boston<\/i>, <i>Washington<\/i> and <i>education<\/i>. Since Henry Adams refers to himself as \u201cthe boy\u201d, the word <i>boy<\/i> is naturally the most noticeable. Adams talks a lot about his family\u2019s disconnection to and his indifference towards Boston (where he was originally from). \u00a0It is thus no surprise that <i>Boston<\/i> becomes the next most mentioned word. <i>Education<\/i> as the title and the main theme of this book is the third biggest word. <i>Washington<\/i> as the name of this chapter is the fourth most common word. Some words that are small but worth considering are <i>political<\/i> (as stated before, Adams starts to express his views about politics in this chapter), <i>Sumner<\/i> (who used to be Adams\u2019 heroic figure) and <i>eighteenth-century<\/i> (he always describes himself as someone with a eighteenth-century\u2019s mindset).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; This word cloud was generated by using Wordle with the top 50 words in Chapter 3 of The Education of Henry Adams.
