This paper examines the phrase "computer analysis" in Russian media. While "computer" is often linked to "virtual" (meaning imaginary or illusory), in media texts, "computer analysis" actually functions as a marker of authority and truth — a rhetorical device that lends credibility, not doubt. A neat case of linguistic stereotypes vs. actual usage.

I submitted a poster abstract to the #ICAME47 because I thought this would be the most low-key format to present work-in-progress, but then there were only four posters and we each got a four minutes after today‘s plenary in the large auditorium 😱Definitely more attention than I had envisaged, but I think it went well. I was done at 3‘59! ⏱️ Lots of encouraging feedback and interesting follow-up ideas! ☺️

Korpusgestützte Erkennung von textsortenspezifischen Formulierungsmustern. Eine Annäherung an die Sprache der Trauer und des Trostes im 17. Jahrhundert

Last week, I had the pleasure of participating in a small conference on corpus linguistics and AI organised by colleagues from English and German linguistics at the University of Gießen. I am grateful to my co-author @mshakir_Dr for suggesting that we present our work there as I wouldn't have applied otherwise and to the organisers for allowing different perspectives and opinions to be heard. The format allowed for lots of time to discuss our diverging views in a stunning setting.

The CfP for our DN35 Conference ”Mapping and Countering Authoritarian Discourses“ in Opole, Poland, 25–26 February 2027, is now open.

During DN35, we want to reflect on (neo)authoritarianism today, its role in public discourse, and its impact on contemporary politics. We want to map the discursive construction of the (neo)authoritarian appeal across the Global North and South, and the ways in which they can be counteracted. We welcome a wide range of methodologies and approaches to researching these issues, including critical political, psychological, and post-structuralist #DiscourseAnalysis, #CorpusLinguistics, and #RhetoricalAnalysis.

Does anyone know when and where the CL2027 (Corpus Linguistics 2027) conference is planned? Duckduckgo is not helping me and I want to avoid a clash of conferences!
