The essays in this volume, written by Germanists from Britain, Ireland, the USA and Australia, illustrate the enormous potential which corpus-based work has for German Studies as a whole and the rich diversity of work currently being undertaken. A detailed introduction explains basic concepts, methods, and applications of corpus-based work.
