This month’s ‘Character in the Corpus’ blog and resource set explore the value of ‘corpus linguistics’. This discussion explores how linguistics, as humanity’s primary means of social interaction, offers a useful suite of tools to help us codify morality and understand the fundamental material of literacy. The piece also explores the definition and application of the term ‘virtue’, whilst presenting complimentary resources on the term and virtue literacy as a wider field. The piece and accompanying resources are available to view here.
