Mapping the discourse of climate change in four western countries
This paper analyses climate change discourse in legacy newspapers from France, Germany, the UK, and the US between 2005 and 2022. Using corpus linguistics and named entity recognition, we develop a robust methodology to build and analyse a large-scale corpus of relevant news articles. We focus on the question: Who speaks about climate change? The paper has five aims: (1) to introduce a method for creating a comprehensive and focused corpus of cli…
A Parser for News Downloads
This paper presents the Download Parser, a tool for handling text downloads from large online databases. Many universities have access to full-text databases which allow the user to search their holdings and then view and ideally download the full text of relevant articles, but there are important problems in practice in managing such downloads, because of factors such as duplication, unevenness of formatting standards, lack of documentation. The…

Disputed climate science in the media: Do countries matter
This article presents findings from a large-scale newspaper analysis of climate change discourses in four developed countries, using corpus linguistics methodology. We map the discourse over time, showing peaks and troughs of attention and explaining their causes. Different connotations of common terms such as global warming and climate change in different countries are analysed. Cluster and key-word analysis show the relative salience of specifi…
Energy security in the news: North/South perspectives
Analysis of newspaper reporting on the topic of energy security in eight countries – four from the global North (France, Germany, the UK, and the United States) and four from the global South (China, India, Brazil, and South Africa) – produces no support for the thesis that news is disseminated from core countries to the periphery and semi-periphery. There is an important difference between China and the other three fast-developing countries and …
Keyness in Texts
This is corpus linguistics with a text linguistic focus. The volume concerns lexical inequality, the fact that some words and phrases share the quality of being key – and thereby reflect or promote important themes – in some textual contexts, while others do not. The patterning of words which differ in their centrality to text meaning is of increasing interest to corpus linguistics. At the same time software resources are yielding increasingly mo…

John Sinclair (1933-2007). Language Pioneer and Explorer
in the land of language who identified much of the basic geography and mapped out numerous trails as far as large amounts of real language are concerned. As a particularly clear thinker, sometimes dauntingly so, and as a theoretician, Sinclair was able to predict which sorts of initiatives were likely to prosper, and which were doomed to fail or lapse into obscurity. He also had the essential, impressive ability to lead and persuade others so as …
Textual Patterns: Key words and corpus analysis in language education
Textual Patterns introduces corpus resources, tools and analytic frameworks of central relevance to language teachers and teacher educators. Specifically it shows how key word analysis, combined with the systematic study of vocabulary and genre, can form the basis for a corpus informed approach to language teaching. The first part of the book gives the reader a strong grounding in the way in which language teachers can use corpus analysis tools (…
