Studying lexical meaning in context: From collocation to collocational networks and resonance

Résumé En

The starting point for this chapter is the notion of collocation, especially as it has arisen in work in corpus linguistics and lexicography inspired by John Sinclair, and further developed by corpus linguists as Patrick Hanks, Michael Rundell, Michael Hoey, Michael Stubbs and Bill Louw, forming what has come to be known as the Birmingham School. Recognizing the fundamental role of collocation in language opens the way for two complementary perspectives on lexical meaning, collocational networks and collocational resonance, which are explored in this chapter through, mainly Spanish, corpus data.
