dc.description.abstractThe four major objectives of the project were: i) to establish an electronic corpus of (a) conversations, from the British National Corpus (BNC) and (b) oral narratives, from Lancaster's Centre for North Western Regional Studies (CNWRS) oral history archive ii) to annotate the corpus manually for categories of Speech, Thought and Writing Presentation (ST and WP) iii) to conduct systematic quantitative and qualitative analyses of the annotated corpus and iv) to compare the findings with those of Short and Semino's 1994-7 study of ST and WP in a corpus of written fictional and non-fictional British English narratives (BA LRG M-AN2314/APN/3489). A full description of the corpus can be found on the project website at: http://www.ling.lancs.ac.uk/stwp/default.htm McIntyre, D., C. Bellard-Thomson, J. Heywood, A. McEnery, E. Semino and M.
