Assuming no prior knowledge of corpora, the book examines and evaluates a variety of corpus-based methodologies including: *collocations, *keyness *concordances *dispersion plots *building and annotating corpora Illustrated with a number of real-life examples of corpus-based DA from a range of sources and covering a variety of subjects, this is an informative introduction to using corpus linguistics as a methodology in discourse analysis.
