- Course objectives
- This course offers a general and practical introduction to corpus linguistics. It will start by familiarizing students with some basic corpus linguistic principles, such as the notions of target population, corpus balance, representativeness, and concordances. As a second step, we will have a look at some of the present debates concerning the relevance and application of corpus-based findings. Finally, the course will introduce several German language corpora, which are accessible to researchers, teachers and students of German.
