Description

Corpora-large collections of written and/or spoken text stored and accessed electronically-provide the means of investigating language that is of growing importance academically and professionally.

Corpora are now routinely used in the following fields: the production of dictionaries and other reference materials; the development of aids to translation; language teaching materials; the investigation of ideologies and cultural assumptions; natural language processing; and the investigation of all aspects of linguistic behaviour, including vocabulary, grammar and pragmatics. This new six-volume collection from Routledge brings together the most significant articles in the field of corpora, and is arranged thematically.

The set also includes a new introduction by the editors, a chronological table and a comprehensive index.

The Major Work is organized as follows: Volume 1. Foundations-the history of corpus linguistics, 1955-80; Volume 2.

Setting up corpora; Volume 3. Working with corpora; Volume 4. Corpus linguistics, lexicology and language teaching; Volume 5.

The theoretical foundation of corpus linguistuics; Volume 6.

Corpus linguistics and natural language processing.
