Corpus linguistics provides the methodology to extract meaning from texts. Taking
as its starting point the fact that language is not a mirror of reality but lets us share
what we know, believe and think about reality, it focuses on language as a social
phenomenon, and makes visible the attitudes and beliefs expressed by the
members of a munity.
Consisting of both spoken and written language, discourse always has historical,
social, functional and regional dimensions. Discourse can be monolingual or
multilingual, interconnected by translations. Discourse is where language and
social studies meet.
The Corpus and Discourse series consists of two strands. The first, Research in Corpus
and Discourse, features innovative contributions to various aspects of corpus
linguistics and a wide range of applications, from language technology via the
teaching of a second language to a history of mentalities. The second strand,
Studies in Corpus and Discourse, comprises of key texts bridging the gap between
social studies and linguistics. Although equally academically regorous, this strand
will be aimed at a wider audience of academics and postgraduate students working
in both disciplines.
