Abstract
Communication research has often been performed through text analysis and content
analysis. They are research techniques that vary in nature and allow the researcher to make
inferences from data present in a text and extract relevant information from them. Content
analysis has been used in a variety of contexts with diverse research objectives, goals and
methods including computerized and automated methods. In our textual analysis we have
selected the Sikh Memorandum from the Indian Round Table Conference (1930) in order to
extract linguistic information about its contents that can be related to its historical context
through automated methods and in this manner find out word patterns to denote sentiment
importance. The purpose is to find out the agreement of some of the automated online
sentiment analysis tools that are available on the net as well as whether the Memorandum
had positive, neutral or negative polarity. The results will be analyzed.
