SUMMARY:An introduction to corpus linguistics for humanities researchers
DESCRIPTION:Corpus linguistics provides a set of techniques that can be 
 used to explore\, summarise and analyse corpora of digital texts. Used in 
 conjunction with more traditional approaches it can be a powerful tool to 
 understand historical\, literary and other textual sources. This 
 introductory workshop is designed for those interested in discovering more 
 about corpus linguistics and the opportunities it may offer them and their 
 research. In particular\, those interested learning more about the 
 potential of digital methods are highly encouraged to attend. No prior 
 knowledge of linguistics or corpus linguistics is assumed. The session may 
 be of particular interest to those in either English Literature or 
 History\, as this session considers how to approach historical texts via 
 corpus linguistic methods\, in particular.\n\nThe workshop will introduce 
 you to some of the core principles of corpus linguistics\, including: 
 concordancing\, tagging\, annotation\, collocation\, and some more advanced 
 wildcard searching. The 2-hour workshop will consist of a more formal 
 presentation\, group discussion and hands-on opportunities with specialist 
 software. The hands-on part of the session includes the use of a free 
 software built at Lancaster University (CQPweb - which accessible via a web 
 browser). We will use CQPweb to conduct searches of a pre-built and highly 
 annotated corpus. Please bring a laptop with you to the session to 
 participate in the hands-on aspects of the workshop. Any questions\, please 
 do not hesitate to contact me (Ellen) at e.roberts9@lancaster.ac.uk. Places 
 will be limited given the interactive nature of the session.
