Abstract
The ways in which migration is framed in our public spaces influence who we think of when we think of migration, how we think about those people, and what kinds of responses are considered appropriate to their movement. In this paper, I want to show how corpus linguistics can be used to build a fuller picture of how migration is framed. I will start by addressing how corpus linguistics can help determine ‘who’ we should analyse when investigating the discursive construction of migrant groups. Then I will move on to what corpus linguistics, combined with discourse analysis can tell us about ‘how’ they are represented. Finally, I will discuss how we can use corpus linguistics to compare such representations across cultures and languages.
Charlotte Taylor is Senior Lecturer in English Language & Linguistics at the University of Sussex. Her work is broadly concerned with language and persuasion and the rhetorical uses of language. Her current project examines the role of memory in migration discourses and unpicks the ways in which our contemporary public discourses both recycle past frames, and elide and re-shape past experiences. She also has a keen interest in methodological issues in corpus and discourse work. Her book-length publications include Corpus Approaches to Discourse (with Anna Marchi), Exploring Absence and Silence in Discourse (with Melani Schroeter), Patterns and Meanings in Discourse (with Alan Partington & Alison Duguid) and Mock Politeness in English and Italian. She is working on a new monograph titled Migration Discourses and Memory which will be coming out in 2023.

Prof Pascual Pérez-Paredes
Universitat Jaume I, 9 September 2022
In this workshop we will discuss how corpus approaches to textual analysis have increased our understanding of genres and registers. By looking at existing research designs, we will explore both what corpora can and can’t offer to researchers. The main focus of the workshop is to explore the use of ProTool GENTT, a natural processing (NLP) pipeline that makes use of basic machine learning algorithms.
The 7th edition of Writing Science in English aims to provide participants with strategies to write in a clearer and more academic way in English.
In this edition, we will delve into the use of digital resources that allow us to achieve these goals. To this end, we will combine theoretical sessions with practical activities.
The course will be conducted in English and will be taught by specialist teachers from various universities in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Spain.
