Contents:
This seminar will take a linguistic perspective on the Corona pandemic by considering how people talk about Covid-19 and what impact Covid-19 has on language. Students will develop their own ideas for research projects after being familiarized with methods (e.g. working with the Corona corpus compiled by Mark Davies, Critical Discourse Analysis) and concepts (e.g. Conceptual Metaphor theory, virality & meme culture).
Digital teaching:
This seminar will be organised via Microsoft TEAMS.
