Beschreibung
This work analyses a corpus of written data of about half a million words on an environmental topic of contemporary political importance. Based on computer-assisted approaches of corpus analysis, it develops quantitative, text-internal methods for the comparison of various corpora and parts of corpora. One of the major aims of the investigation is to make clear the way in which different interpretations of the political topic by the various interest groups are realised linguistically in these texts. It also attempts to show how this realisation mediates and construes reality for the different groups of recipients. Such stylistic comparisons are based on detailed analyses of key lexico-grammatical and semantic structures.
