European identity

'European Identity' examines how Europe is represented linguistically in the news media of France, Italy, Poland, and the UK, through the use of an electronic corpus built from newspapers and TV news transcripts. The aim is to demonstrate how linguistic analysis can make a key contribution to the analysis of political issues.
