Towards an integrated corpus stylistics


 DOWNLOAD PDF
This article argues in favour of an integrated corpus stylistics; that is, an approach to corpus stylistics that
integrates it with other stylistic methods and analytical frameworks. I suggest that this approach is needed
for two main reasons: (i) it is analytically necessary in order to fully explain stylistic effects in texts, and
(ii) integrating corpus methods with other stylistic tools is what will distinguish corpus stylistics from
corpus linguistics. My argument is supported by reference to examples from Mark Haddon’s no vel The
Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time and the HBO TV series Deadwood. Both these examples
rely for their explanation on a combination of corpus stylistic analytical techniques and other stylistic
methods of analysis.
