size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Much of the
“new wave” of contrastive linguistics has focused on aspects of the
grammatical system, examining phonological, morphological, lexical and
syntactic similarities and differences across two or more languages. As with
many other areas of linguistics, there exists a renewed interest in discourse
perspectives in the study of languages in contrast, and much of that work uses
corpora and corpus linguistics techniques to study language. </span></font></span><br>
<br>
<span class=smalltext>This volume provides examples of cutting-edge research in
contrastive analyses of different languages. The papers have been organized
around four themes: studies of discourse markers; information structure;
registers and genres; and phraseology. The languages included (Dutch, English,
French, German, Italian, Spanish and Swedish) cover a range of European
languages, showing not only diversity in their grammatical structures, but also
subtle differences that are the focus of many of the papers. The techniques
used, from concordancing and careful annotation to painstaking qualitative analysis,
showcase the variety of approaches to the study of languages in contrast and
include contributions from discourse, corpus and functional perspectives.</span><br>
