</strong><a name="d.en.152295"></a>
<div class=""><h4><strong></strong>Saturday 9 November 2013, University of Portsmouth</h4>
<p>The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers who are
working on (critical) discourse analysis of texts in more than one
language. It is an opportunity to discuss the particular challenges
posed by cross-linguistic corpus-assisted discourse analysis and to
share ways of addressing these issues.</p>
<p>We invite papers which:</p>
<ol><li>address specific (theoretical) methodological issues in the area,
such as how to operationalise keyness in corpora of different languages,
the identification of equivalence and so on</li><li>present case-studies of cross-linguistic (critical) discourse
analysis research – this could also include work with a cross-cultural
focus</li><li>present case-studies of corpus approaches to research on multilingual texts</li><li>combine any of the above</li></ol>
<p>We are particularly interested in papers which address the
ideological, representational and evaluative aspects of discourse
because this area seems to have received rather less attention to date.</p>
<p>In the ‘Corpus Linguistics in the South’ tradition, papers will be 45
minutes and lead into open discussion. We also a plan a pecha-kucha
style session to allow more participants to introduce their work in this
area and, as usual, there will be time over lunch for general
discussion of the topic. We hope that the event will be an opportunity
to create a community for researchers in this area, perhaps working
towards a panel and/or special edition. <br></p>
<p>If you would be interested in presenting your research, or would like to reserve a place, please contact <a href="mailto:charlotte.taylor@port.ac.uk" target="_blank">charlotte.taylor@port.ac.uk</a></p>
<p>As always, the event will be free and open to all but with a limited number of places.</p></div>For more information about Corpus Linguistics in the South, come visit us at <a href="http://www.facebook.com/CorpusLinguisticsInTheSouth">www.facebook.com/CorpusLinguisticsInTheSouth</a><br>
