The Routledge Handbook of Corpus Approaches to Discourse Analysis: (Routledge Handbooks in Applied Linguistics)

The Routledge Handbook of Corpus Approaches to Discourse Analysis highlights the diversity, breadth, and depth of corpus approaches to discourse analysis, compiling new and original research from notable scholars across the globe. Chapters showcase recent developments influenced by the exponential growth in linguistic computing, advances in corpus design and compilation, and the applications of sound quantitative and interpretive techniques in analyzing text and discourse patterns. Key discourse domains covered by 35 empirical chapters include:

• Research contexts and methodological considerations;

• Naturally occurring spoken, professional, and academic discourse;

• Corpus approaches to conversational discourse, media discourse, and professional and academic writing.

The Routledge Handbook of Corpus Approaches to Discourse Analysis is key reading for both experienced and novice researchers working at the intersection of corpus linguistics and discourse analysis, as well as anyone undertaking study in these areas, as well as anyone interested in related fields and adjacent research approaches.
