The history of the English language is a vast and diverse area of
research. In this volume, a team of leading historians of English
come together to analyse 'real' language, drawing on corpus data to
shed new light on long-established issues and debates in the field.
Combining synchronic and diachronic analysis, the chapters address
the major issues in corpus linguistics - methodological,
theoretical and applied - and place special focus on the use of
electronic resources in the research of English and the wider field
of digital humanities. Topics covered include polemical articles on
the optimal use of corpus linguistic methods, macro-level patterns
of text and discourse organisation, and micro-features such as
interjections and hesitators. Covering Englishes from the past and
present, this book is designed specifically for graduate students
and researchers working in fields of corpus linguistics, the
history of the English language, and historical linguistics.
