Merging Corpus Linguistic and Discourse Analytic Research Goals: discourse units in biology research articles
讲座人: Professor Douglas Biber
时 间: 2007年5月16日(周三)下午2:30-4:00
地 点: 北京外国语大学 逸夫楼415教室
讲座人简介:
Douglas Biber is Regents' Professor of English (Applied Linguistics) at Northern Arizona University. His research efforts have focused on corpus linguistics, English grammar, and register variation (in English and cross-linguistic; synchronic and diachronic). His publications include books published with Cambridge University Press (1988, 1995, 1998), Oxford University Press (1994), John Benjamins (2002, 2006), and the co-authored Longman Grammar of Spoken and Written English (1999) and Longman Student Grammar of Spoken and Written English (2002).
讲座简介:
The present study introduces a research approach that combines corpus-linguistic and discourse-analytic perspectives to analyze the discourse patterns in a large corpus of biology research articles. The primary goals of the study are to identify vocabulary-based Discourse Units (DUs) using computational techniques, to describe the basic types of DUs in biology research articles as distinguished by their primary linguistic characteristics (using Multi-Dimensional analysis), to interpret those Discourse Unit Types in functional terms, and to then illustrate how the internal organization of a text can be described as a sequence of DUs, shifting among various Discourse Unit Types.
