Chapters explore how corpus linguistic methods allow for a critical examination of how this past medical knowledge is mediated through language across a diverse range of health issues, time periods, textual genres, and sociocultural contexts. While focusing on the English language, the collection demonstrates a point of entry for future work applying corpus linguistic methodologies to historical medical texts more broadly across other languages, periods, and texts to continue growing this burgeoning area of research.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to scholars in corpus linguistics, discourse analysis, medical humanities, and historical linguistics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46436479434903,"sku":"9781032739755","price":13149.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781032739755.webp?v=1769131913","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/historical-medical-discourse-corpus-linguistic-perspectives-9781032739755","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
