Book Synopsis Current Methods in Historical Semantics by : Kathryn Allan
Download or read book Current Methods in Historical Semantics written by Kathryn Allan and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-12-23 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovative, data-driven methods provide more rigorous and systematic evidence for the description and explanation of diachronic semantic processes. The volume systematises, reviews, and promotes a range of empirical research techniques and theoretical perspectives that currently inform work across the discipline of historical semantics. In addition to emphasising the use of new technology, the potential of current theoretical models (e.g. within variationist, sociolinguistic or cognitive frameworks) is explored along the way.
Book Synopsis Corpus linguistics by : Stefanowitsch, Anatol
Download or read book Corpus linguistics written by Stefanowitsch, Anatol and published by Language Science Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corpora are used widely in linguistics, but not always wisely. This book attempts to frame corpus linguistics systematically as a variant of the observational method. The first part introduces the reader to the general methodological discussions surrounding corpus data as well as the practice of doing corpus linguistics, including issues such as the scientific research cycle, research design, extraction of corpus data and statistical evaluation. The second part consists of a number of case studies from the main areas of corpus linguistics (lexical associations, morphology, grammar, text and metaphor), surveying the range of issues studied in corpus linguistics while at the same time showing how they fit into the methodology outlined in the first part.

Book Synopsis Corpora in Cognitive Linguistics by : Stefan Th. Gries
Download or read book Corpora in Cognitive Linguistics written by Stefan Th. Gries and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-08-22 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive Linguistics, the branch of linguistics that tries to "make one's account of human language accord with what is generally known about the mind and the brain," has become one of the most flourishing fields of contemporary linguistics. The chapters address many classic topics of Cognitive Linguistics. These topics include studies on the semantics of specific words (including polysemy and synonymy) as well as semantic characteristics of particular syntactic patterns / constructions (including constructional synonymy and the schematicity of constructions), the analysis of causatives, transitivity, and image-schematic aspects of posture verbs. The key characteristic of this volume is that all papers adopt the methodological perspective of Corpus Linguistics, the rapidly evolving branch of linguistics based on the computerized analysis of language used in authentic settings. Thus, the contributions do not only all provide various new insights in their respective fields, they also introduce new data as well as new corpus-based and quantitative methods of analysis. On the basis of their findings, the authors discuss both theoretical implications going well beyond the singular topics of the studies and show how the discipline of Cognitive Linguistics can benefit from the rigorous analysis of naturally-occurring language. The languages which are investigated are English, German, Dutch, and Russian, and the data come from a variety of different corpora. As such, the present volume will be of interest to a wide range of scholars with many different foci and interests and should pave the way for further integration of usage-based techniques of analysis within this exciting paradigm.

Book Synopsis Corpus Semantics by : Wolfgang Teubert
Download or read book Corpus Semantics written by Wolfgang Teubert and published by Continuum International Publishing Group. This book was released on 2012-11-08 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an introduction to analysing semantics through corpus linguistics. Corpus linguistics involves the creation of large databases of natural language against which certain hypotheses can be tested. These corpora therefore enable language to be analysed objectively for semantic information. The chapters present an introduction to the main areas of corpus linguistics, including the design and compilation of corpora, and use of corpora within lexicography. The authors use this as a basis from which to introduce the key theories of meaning used in semantics, such as critical discourse analysis, social constructivism and hermeneutics. This step-by-step introduction will be invaluable reading for students of corpus linguistics or semantics.

Book Synopsis Using Corpus Methods to Triangulate Linguistic Analysis by : Jesse Egbert
Download or read book Using Corpus Methods to Triangulate Linguistic Analysis written by Jesse Egbert and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book builds on Baker and Egbert’s previous work on triangulating methodological approaches in corpus linguistics and takes triangulation one step further to highlight its broader applicability when implemented with other linguistic research methods. The volume showcases research methods from other linguistic disciplines and draws on ten empirical studies from a range of topics in psycholinguistics, applied linguistics, and discourse analysis to demonstrate how these methods might be most effectively triangulated with corpus-linguistic methods. A concluding chapter synthesizes these findings as a means of pointing the way toward future directions for triangulation and its implications for future linguistic research. The combined effect reveals the potential for the triangulation of these methods to not only enhance rigor in empirical linguistic research but also our understanding of linguistic phenomena and variation by studying them from multiple perspectives, making this book essential reading for graduate students and researchers in corpus linguistics, applied linguistics, psycholinguistics, and discourse analysis.

Book Synopsis Corpus Linguistics by : Tony McEnery
Download or read book Corpus Linguistics written by Tony McEnery and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-10-06 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corpus linguistics is the study of language data on a large scale - the computer-aided analysis of very extensive collections of transcribed utterances or written texts. This textbook outlines the basic methods of corpus linguistics, explains how the discipline of corpus linguistics developed and surveys the major approaches to the use of corpus data. It uses a broad range of examples to show how corpus data has led to methodological and theoretical innovation in linguistics in general. Clear and detailed explanations lay out the key issues of method and theory in contemporary corpus linguistics. A structured and coherent narrative links the historical development of the field to current topics in 'mainstream' linguistics. Practical tasks and questions for discussion at the end of each chapter encourage students to test their understanding of what they have read and an extensive glossary provides easy access to definitions of technical terms used in the text.
Book Synopsis Corpus, Cognition and Causative Constructions by : Gaëtanelle Gilquin
Download or read book Corpus, Cognition and Causative Constructions written by Gaëtanelle Gilquin and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03-24 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English causative constructions with cause, get, have and make are often mistakenly presented as (quasi-)synonymous and more or less interchangeable. This book demonstrates the value of corpus linguistics in identifying the syntactic, semantic, lexical and stylistic features that are distinctive for each of these constructions. It also underlines the usefulness of providing corpus studies with a solid theoretical foundation by showing how corpus linguistics can be fruitfully combined with cognitive linguistics, which is used both as a starting point for the analysis (top-down approach) and as a framework within which to interpret the corpus results (bottom-up approach). From a methodological point of view, the study illustrates the complementarity of corpus and elicitation data, and offers tools and methods that could be used to investigate other syntactic structures. Finally, the book also has a pedagogical dimension in that it examines how the research findings can be applied to foreign language teaching.
