<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Verdana">Held in the context of the 11<sup>th</sup>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Verdana">This workshop is intended to
reflect the growing interest in the synergetic use of research methodologies
traditionally associated with either (Critical) Discourse Analysis or Corpus
Linguistics. (C)DA techniques offer detailed, in-depth investigations of
linguistic phenomena in relatively small textual specimens, often corroborated
by co-textual or extra-textual information (e.g. images, graphics, action etc.;
knowledge of relevant historical, political, economic etc. facts), with a focus
(especially in the critical approach) on discourse as the embodiment of
ideologies and power relations. CL methods, on the other hand, on the strength
of the computer processing of large amounts of textual data, help reveal
large-scale discourse tendencies, typically expressed in the form of
quantitative and structural information on lexicophraseological
phenomena/patterns, its conventional point of access. The steadily increasing
number, in recent years, of projects integrating these microscopically and
macroscopically oriented approaches (e.g. Baker et al. 2008, Partington et al.
2004; see also recent international conferences dedicated to relevant themes:
CADS 2012, Corpus Linguistics 2011) indicates an appreciation of the fact that
their pairing may offer a fresh view on discourse and generate analyses of
enhanced sophistication and generalizability. </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Verdana">Projects adopting this symbiotic
approach in Modern Greek discourse research are still scarce (e.g. Fragaki
2012, Hatzidaki 2011, Goutsos 2002). The aim of this workshop is to develop an
agenda for the fruitful interaction between (C)DA and CL specifically in the
context of the Modern Greek language and culture. This agenda may concern
theoretical/methodological issues or draw on case studies of particular
discourses.</span></p>
