Note: the percentages in lines 2-6 (animals through total humans) were obtained by dividing frequencies by the total number of characters (line 1); the percentages in lines 7-26 (single humans through babies) were computed by dividing the various frequencies by the total number of human characters (line 6). In this table, and all other tables, familiar characters are those who are coded in one of the following four identity subclasses: family, relatives, Known, and Prominent. Unfamiliar characters are those who are coded in the following identity subclasses: Occupational, Ethnic, Uncertain, and Stranger. The few imaginary and dead characters, as well as those involved in metamorphoses, are classified as familiar or unfamiliar according to their identity class.
