By incorporating metaphor into the corpus-building process, the book offers a deeper understanding of the role of metaphor in discourse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEMI, as the specific context explored in this volume, holds particular relevance for researchers in the field. However, the design and model presented herein can be easily generalized and applied to other corpora that focus on metaphor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlejo-González emphasizes the importance of building such a corpus due to the scarcity of corpora that are tagged for metaphor and the limited number of corpora that address the EMI phenomenon.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book serves as a valuable resource and a source of interest for researchers in corpus linguistics and related fields who seek to explore metaphor through their corpus studies. It provides practical insights and methodologies for constructing and analyzing corpora that capture the linguistic manifestations of metaphor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 540g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032510576\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rafael Alejo-Gonzalez","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":45175491723514,"sku":"9781032510576","price":151.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1707505323303_book.jpg?v=1707659977","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/metaphor-and-corpus-linguistics-building-and-investigating-an-english-as-a-medium-of-instruction-corpus-9781032510576","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
