- Abstract
Culturomics is a new field of study to investigate how use of a word or phrase has changed over the past few centuries. We use the Culturomics approach to describe the temporal changes in the evolution of accounting thought. This is now possible as more and more books are being scanned and texts digitized. With digitization, it is possible to apply quantitative analysis to diverse fields in novel ways. We document the trajectories of terms that define the accounting field and our initial interpretations of them. Our analysis reveals that the ten-year period, from 1900 to 1910, stands out as a fertile period of innovative accounting ideas that endure to this day.
