The Routledge Handbook of Corpus Linguistics provides a timely
overview of a dynamic and rapidly growing area with a widely
applied methodology. Through the electronic analysis of large
bodies of text, corpus linguistics demonstrates and supports
linguistic statements and assumptions. In recent years it has seen
an ever-widening application in a variety of fields: computational
linguistics, discourse analysis, forensic linguistics, pragmatics
and translation studies. Bringing together experts in the key areas
of development and change, the handbook is structured around six
themes which take the reader through building and designing a
corpus to using a corpus to study literature and translation. A
comprehensive introduction covers the historical development of the
field and its growing influence and application in other areas.
Structured around five headings for ease of reference, each
contribution includes further reading sections with three to five
key texts highlighted and annotated to facilitate further
exploration of the topics. The Routledge Handbook of Corpus
Linguistics is the ideal resource for advanced undergraduates and
postgraduates.
