Your Gateway into the Digital Humanities Universe
DIGI Colloquium:
Text Corpora That You Can Use
John Hale, Arch Professor in Linguistics, will offer a live demonstration of the search tool cqp, showing how corpora that are available right now may be used to address questions about how people use language, what words mean, and how authors achieve their literary ends.
Bonus topics to be explored in the interactive Q&A that follows include but are not limited to:
- implications of very large corpora for Experimental Philosophy
- implications of parallel corpora for Comparative Grammar (e.g. Romance)
- opportunities for digital humanists within computational linguistics
