2013第七届国际语料库语言学大会

　　The seventh international Corpus Linguistics conference (CL2013) will be held at Lancaster University from Tuesday 23rd July 2013 to Friday 26th July 2013. The main conference will be preceded by a workshop day on Monday 22nd July.

　　The conference is hosted by the UCREL research centre, which brings together the Department of Linguistics and English Language with the Schiil of Computing and Communications at Lancaster.

About the conference

　　The goals of the conference are as follows.

• To gather together current and developing research in the study and application of corpus linguistics;
• To push the field forwards by promoting dialogue among the many different users of corpora across interconnected sub-disciplines of linguistics – be they descriptive, theoretical, applied or computational;
• To explore new challenges both within corpus linguistics, and in the extension of corpus approaches to new fields of study.

　　With these goals in mind, we invinte contributions on as broad and inclusive a basis as possible. The areas in which we particularly welcome submissions include but are not limited to:

• Critical explorations of existing measures and methods in corpus linguistics;
• New methods and techniques in corpus development, annotation and analysis;
• Corpus approaches to the study of new media;
• New tools and techniques developed in corpus-based computational linguistics;
• The application of corpus approaches in the social sciences and humanities;
• The extension of corpus linguistics to an ever-wider range of (non-English) languages;
• The interface between corpus and theory;
• The use of corpora in discourse analysis;
• The use of corpora in second language acquisition studies and language pedagogy.
