How can you carry out discourse analysis using corpus linguistics?
What research questions should I ask? Which methods should you use
and when? What is a collocational network or a key cluster?
Introducing the major techniques, methods and tools for
corpus-assisted analysis of discourse, this book answers these
questions and more, showing readers how to best use corpora in
their analyses of discourse. Using carefully tailored case studies,
each chapter is devoted to a central technique, including
frequency, concordancing and keywords, going step by step through
the process of applying different analytical procedures.
Introducing a wide range of different corpora, from holiday
brochures to political debates, the book considers the key debates
and latest advances in the field. Fully revised and updated, this
new edition includes: - A new chapter on how to conduct research
projects in corpus-based discourse analysis - Completely rewritten
chapters on collocation and advanced techniques, using a corpus of
jihadist propaganda texts and covering topics such as social media
and visual analysis - Coverage of major tools, including CQPweb,
AntConc, Sketch Engine and #LancsBox - Discussion of newer
techniques including the derivation of lockwords and the comparison
of multiple data sets for diachronic analysis With exercises,
discussion questions and suggested further readings in each
chapter, this book is an excellent guide to using corpus
linguistics techniques to carry out discourse analysis.
