The frequency with which particular words are used in a text can
tell us something meaningful both about that text and also about
its author because their choice of words is seldom random. Focusing
on the most frequent lexical items of a number of generated word
frequency lists can help us to determine whether all the texts are
written by the same author. Alternatively, they might wish to
determine whether the most frequent words of a given text (captured
by its word frequency list) are suggestive of potentially
meaningful patterns that could have been overlooked had the text
been read manually. This edited collection brings together
cutting-edge research written by leading experts in the field on
the construction of word-lists for the analysis of both frequency
and keyword usage. Taken together, these papers provide a
comprehensive and up-to-date survey of the most exciting research
being conducted in this subject.
