It employs both quantitative and qualitative analytical methods, with four case studies offering a broad perspective on how the topical socio-political issues of migration and asylum seeking are represented. It also explores how newspapers reveal their political orientation and promote their political agenda by employing specific linguistic patterns and discursive strategies. The book offers a comparative corpus analysis to ascertain whether media discourse regarding EU migration has changed in the wake of the referendum. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 194 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 29 April 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCorpus-Based Analysis of Ideological Bias delves into a comprehensive exploration of how migration discourse is (re)constructed in the contemporary British press. To achieve this, two specialized corpora comprising a total of 1,000 news reports, editorials, and opinion pieces from five major national British newspapers were meticulously collected and annotated. The pivotal event that distinguishes these two corpora is the 2016 referendum on Britain's membership in the European Union (EU).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn its analysis, this book employs a combination of quantitative and qualitative analytical methods, with four case studies providing a broad perspective on how the topical socio-political issues of migration and asylum seeking are represented by left- and right-wing British newspapers. These case studies delve into the ways in which newspapers reveal their political orientation and promote their political agenda by employing specific linguistic patterns and discursive strategies, particularly in the representation of the key social actors within migration discourse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, the book offers in-depth case studies that specifically focus on the discourses surrounding European migrants and migration within the EU, which proved to be a highly popular topic in the British press both before and after the 2016 EU membership referendum. By conducting a comparative corpus analysis, the book seeks to ascertain whether media discourse regarding EU migration has undergone any significant changes in the aftermath of the referendum.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book serves as a valuable resource for students of English, linguistics, and media studies, as well as for researchers in the fields of applied corpus linguistics, critical discourse studies, contemporary media analysis, and metaphor research. Its comprehensive approach and rich insights into the dynamics of migration discourse in the British press make it an essential read for scholars and practitioners alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 360g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367607999\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anna Islentyeva","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104031240442,"sku":"9780367607999","price":43.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1654255533122_book.jpg?v=1654416822","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/corpusbased-analysis-of-ideological-bias-migration-in-the-british-press-9780367607999","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
