The issue of the nature of linguistic data along with the principles to be used for the constitution of these data has become central, and this is demonstrated by the development of corpus linguistics in recent years. However, the data are often interpreted through the prism of a particular theory, which can lead us to ask if doing research in a given theoretical background might influence the collection and interpretation of the data? Conversely, can data impose the application of a certain theory?
The reflexion which we propose to conduct during this workshop will focus on the articulation between data and theory, as the relationship between these two elements is essential to linguistic analysis.
We invite young researchers (master students, PhD students and young doctors) to submit abstracts on the articulation between data and the analysis of these data within a given theory. The communication may focus on the methods of collecting and organising data, the way to interpret these data, how data can influence a theory or how a theory can influence data.
