ON COMBINING CORPUS LINGUISTICS AND CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS
Abstract
This paper addresses the framework of combining Corpus Linguistics and Critical Discourse Analysis and the reasons for such a combination of methodologies especially when a large amount of texts is being analysed. Moreover, it also presents the most recent framework within this field of study and lists advantages that might inspire researchers to use such framework.
