OverviewThe present collection of articles represents research efforts in the field of specialised languages, including the analysis of research articles in disciplines as diverse as Biomedicine and Computing, on the one hand, and overlapping disciplines such as in Social Sciences, on the other, all with high relevance to English for Academic Purposes, and English for specific Purposes. The volume offers empirical evidence obtained from corpus-based analyses of language, both from diachronic as well as synchronic perspectives, on topics such as the role of mother tongue in professional writing, the analysis of conference abstracts as a genre, or the analysis of visual data transfer. This collection addresses issues such as the implementation of lexicons for specialised language learning, and the development of ontologies to research language patterns. The volume thus provides a rich repertoire of research methodologies, in-depth analyses of specialised discourses, and the identification and discussion of relevant pedagogic issues.Winner of the 4th Edition of the 'Enrique Alcaraz Research Award' Full Product DetailsAuthor: Vijay Bhatia (City University of Hong Kong) , Purificación Sánchez (University of Murcia) , Pascual Pérez-Paredes (University of Murcia)Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Co Imprint: John Benjamins Publishing Co Volume: 47 Weight: 0.605kg ISBN: 9789027203526ISBN 10: 9027203520 Pages: 238 Publication Date: 28 September 2011 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational , Professional & Vocational Format: Hardback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Awaiting stock The supplier is currently out of stock of this item.
