Kirsten Middeke
Kommentar
This seminar provides an introduction to the empirical analysis of linguistic structures and functions at different levels of linguistic analysis. We will read academic essays on various linguistic phenomena, trace their line of argumentation, critically assess the conclusions drawn and use electronic text corpora and related tools to replicate (and possibly improve on) the authors’ methodologies of investigation. After the course, students will be equipped with the technical and linguistic know-how to write an empirical paper of their own.
The special focus of this seminar will be on syntactic constructions in English.
Credit requirements are:
- regular participation in discussions, based on weekly reading assignments and/or research homework
- active participation, including the presentation (in groups) of an academic poster
- an empirical academic paper of c2000 words
