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 technol-
ogy via the teaching of a second language to a history of mentalities. The
second strand, Studies in Corpus and Discourse, comprises key texts bridging
the gap between social studies and linguistics. Although equally academic-
ally rigorous, this strand will be aimed at a wider audience of academics and
postgraduate students working in both disciplines.
