Abstract:

Current corpora are invaluable resources for generating accurate and objective
analyses of patterns of language use. However, spoken corpora are effectively
mono-modal, presenting data in the same physical medium - text. The reality of
a discourse situation is lost in its representation as text. Using multimodal
data sets when conducting corpus-based pragmatic analyses is one solution.
This book looks at multimodal corpora in some depth, using backchanneling as
the conversational feature to be analysed. It provides a bottom-up
investigation of the issues and challenges faced at every stage of multimodal
corpus construction and analysis, as well as providing an in-depth linguistic
analysis of a cross section of multimodal corpus data. The collaborative and
co-operative nature of backchannels is highlighted in this book and an adapted
pragmatic-functional linguistic coding matrix for the characterisation of
backchanneling phenomena is presented. Dawn Knight also looks at possible
directions in the construction and use of multimodal corpus linguistics.
