基于语料库的狄更斯和哈代小说文体风格对比研究

A Corpus Based Comparative Study of the Stylistic Styles of Dickens and Hardy's Novels

基于语料库的文体风格研究是当前学界的一大新兴热点,但是这一路径下,不同作者以及同一作者不同时期作品文体风格对比研究具体如何开展,尚需进一步深入探讨。本文选取了狄更斯和哈代两位作家的小说作为语料,自建了4个小型语料库,从文本可读性、平均词长、词汇密度、介词密度、名词化手段密度以及情感词汇密度六个维度探索了狄更斯和哈代两位作家文体风格的不同以及同一作家不同时期的文体风格的变化。本文研究期望借助分析两位作家文体风格的过程,引起研究者对语料库研究方法的认识。
