Adding Context And Constraint To Corpus Linguistics, Jeffrey W. Stempel
Brooklyn Law Review
Corpus linguistics presents an exciting tool for improving interpretation of documentary language. But it would be a mistake to overvalue the tool or to use it as grounds for ejecting consideration of other data from the interpretative task.
