Language, Corpus and Empowerment applies a novel corpus-driven
approach to the exploration of the concept of empowerment in
healthcare. The book proposes an innovative corpus-based
methodology for finding evidence of empowerment in language use,
using data from a video intervention delivered to families of deaf
children, as well as assessing the effects of the intervention on
the family. Language, Corpus and Empowerment provides a working
definition of empowerment which incorporates concepts from
linguistics and learning theory; uses corpus analysis to provide
evidence of how video interventions can transform people's
perspectives; examines this new methodology as a potential tool for
analysing conversational data longitudinally and at a case-by-case
level; demonstrates how a corpus-based methodological approach can
be applied in conjunction with other language-based approaches,
such as discourse analysis and conversation analysis, to explore
the ways in which complex social processes occur in interaction;
makes a valuable development in the assessment of the impact of
healthcare interventions and the language of empowerment.
Insightful and ground-breaking, Language, Corpus and Empowerment is
essential reading for anyone undertaking research within corpus
linguistics.
