His talk deals with issues like the principles of corpus linguistics, corpus composition and compilation, methodology and software development, the intertextuality issue, parallel corpora, corpus linguistics and critical discourse analysis. The talk is more than an introductory talk about corpus linguistics, it gives those who have some research experience in the field of corpus linguistics much food for thought, especially those who are interested in critical discourse analysis.
