520 |a A theoretical and practical guide to using corpus linguistic techniques in stylistic analysisThe use of corpora in stylistics has increased substantially in recent years but until now there has been no book detailing the theoretical basis and methodological practices of corpus stylistics. This book surveys the field and sets the agenda for this fast-developing area. Focusing on how to use off-the-shelf corpus software, such as AntConc, Wmatrix, and the Brigham Young University (BYU) corpus interface, this step-by-step guide explains the theory and practice of using corpus methods and tools for stylistic analysis. Eight original case studies demonstrate how to use corpus tools to analyse style in a range of texts, from the contemporary to the historical. The authors explain how to develop appropriate research questions for corpus stylistic analysis, construct and annotate corpora, make sense of statistics, and analyse corpus data. In addition, the book provides practical advice on how to manage the transition from quantitative results to qualitative analysis, and explores how theories, models and frameworks from stylistics can be used to enhance the qualitative phase of corpus analysis. Supported by detailed instructions on how to access and use relevant corpus software, this is a user's guide to doing corpus stylistic analysis. For students and researchers in stylistics new to the use of corpus methods and theories, the book presents a 'how-to' guide; for corpus linguists it opens the door to the theories, models and frameworks developed in stylistics that are of value to mainstream corpus linguistics.Contains detailed instructions on how to access and use three major corpus tools - AntConc, Wmatrix and the BYU Corpus interface - plus other relevant softwareOffers practical advice on constructing and annotating corporaExplains how corpus methods and theories can be used in stylistic analysisProvides guidance on using stylistic theories, models and frameworks in the rigorous qualitative analysis of corpus dataDemonstrates the benefits to be gained from corpus-based stylistic analysis through eight original case studies
