Continuing on the theme of an event-filled summer, #RC21 are excited to present tomorrow on how to analyse concordances to identify temporal trends in water-related political debates – and to hear all the other fantastic talks, of course!

We're much looking forward to a busy #cl2025 for #RC21: workshop on Sunday and presentation on Thursday!

(Let's skip the riots, though)
A screenshot of FlexiConc used through a web app. Concordance of "Birmingham" showing common n-grams in literary corpora. The results show that "at Birmingham" is preceded by terms like "outbreak" and "riot", while "to Birmingham" looks more positive.

#RC21 is one of several exciting projects at @dhssfau.bsky.social.

Our tools can show how 19th century English novels talk about education on clic-fiction.com.

To learn more, sign up for our MA programme in Digital Humanities - applications are open until July 15!

Screenshot of a KWICGrouped concordance of eyes in Dickens' novels on "his", "her", "fixed" and "glance" using FlexiConc in the web app CLiC. KWICGrouping ranks the results for "eyes" based on the number of specified search terms they contain. FlexiConc provides additional options to adjust the search criteria.
