Description
Social Group Representation in a Diachronic News Corpus provides a comprehensive analysis of how different social groups are portrayed in newspaper discourse across extended time periods. Using corpus linguistics methodology, Irene Elmerot investigates linguistic patterns, frequency distributions, and contextual uses of language when referring to various demographic and social categories.
This work demonstrates how media representation evolves historically, revealing underlying societal attitudes, biases, and changing cultural narratives. By examining large-scale news data diachronically, the study uncovers trends in how language choices reflect and shape public perception of social groups. The research contributes valuable insights into media discourse analysis, corpus methodology, and sociolinguistics.
Part of the Elements in Corpus Linguistics series, this book serves as both a methodological guide and substantive contribution to understanding representation in mass media communication.
