Lingüística de corpus en español/The Routledge Handbook of Spanish Corpus Linguistics muestra el modo en que ha cambiado el panorama de la denominada lingüística de corpus en español y cómo en la actualidad ha llegado a concitar un espacio disciplinar independiente, y, al mismo tiempo, integrar estos conocimientos en cualquier programa de estudios, investigación o diseño curricular en educación superior.Este volumen lo componen 36 capítulos que ofrecen un panorama amplio, diverso y comprehensivo de los avances en lingüística de corpus de y en español, abarcando un vasto repertorio de conceptos esenciales y de aspectos teóricos y metodológicos desde una conceptualización de la lingüística contemporánea tanto inter como transdisciplinaria.Los ámbitos que se cubren no son ni estancos, ni definitivos, ni, mucho menos, los únicos. Son perfectamente susceptibles de revisión, de mejora y/o de cambio. El objetivo último de esta obra no es el limitar o fijar, sino todo lo contrario, es el de motivar y provocar a los lectores y lectoras para que no cesen las avenidas de propuestas innovadoras en el ámbito de la lingüística de corpus del español y seguir así profundizando en el conocimiento de esta lengua.Lingüística de corpus en español / The Routledge Handbook of Spanish Corpus Linguistics shows how the landscape of corpus linguistics in Spanish has changed and how it has become an independent discipline while incorporating this knowledge into any syllabus, research or curriculum design in higher education.This volume comprises 36 chapters that provide a broad, diverse and comprehensive overview of advances in corpus linguistics of and in Spanish, covering a vast repertoire of essential concepts as well as theoretical and methodological aspects from a conceptualization of contemporary linguistics that is both inter- and transdisciplinary. The fields covered are not definitive, or even the only ones. They are entirely open to revision, improvement and/or change. The goal of this work is not to fix or limit these topics. On the contrary, it is intended to motivate and provoke the readers to continue exploring new avenues of innovative proposals in the field of Spanish corpus linguistics and thus deepen their knowledge of this language.

The main focus of this book is the investigation of linguistic variation in Spanish, considering spoken and written, specialised and non-specialised registers from a corpus linguistics approach and employing computational updated tools. The ten chapters represent a range of research on Spanish using a number of different corpora drawn from, amongst others, research articles, student writing, formal conversation and technical reports. A variety of methodologies are brought to bear upon these corpora including multi-dimensional and multi-register analysis, latent semantics and lexical bundles. This in-depth analysis of using Spanish corpora will be of interest to researchers in corpus linguistics or Spanish language. "Corpus and Discourse" series editors are: Wolfgang Teubert, University of Birmingham, and Michaela Mahlberg, Liverpool Hope University College. Editorial Board include: Frantisek Cermak (Prague), Susan Conrad (Portland), Geoffrey Leech (Lancaster), Elena Tognini-Bonelli (Lecce and TWC), Ruth Wodak (Lancaster and Vienna), Feng Zhiwei (Beijing). Corpus linguistics provides the methodology to extract meaning from texts.Taking as its starting point the fact that language is not a mirror of reality but lets us share what we know, believe and think about reality, it focuses on language as a social phenomenon, and makes visible the attitudes and beliefs expressed by the members of a discourse community. Consisting of both spoken and written language, discourse always has historical, social, functional, and regional dimensions. Discourse can be monolingual or multilingual, interconnected by translations. Discourse is where language and social studies meet. "The Corpus and Discourse" series consists of two strands. The first, "Research in Corpus and Discourse", features innovative contributions to various aspects of corpus linguistics and a wide range of applications, from language technology via the teaching of a second language to a history of mentalities. The second strand, "Studies in Corpus and Discourse", is comprised of key texts bridging the gap between social studies and linguistics. Although equally academically rigorous, this strand will be aimed at a wider audience of academics and postgraduate students working in both disciplines.
