Abstract

This paper explores two corpus methodologies, keywords analysis and parallel corpora, with relation to an international translingual project to investigate the invented language, Nadsat, in the renowned dystopian novella A Clockwork Orange, by the late English novelist Anthony Burgess. In particular, it will report on the differing usages of Russian-derived lexis in the English and French versions of the text.
