From Deviant to Domestic: A diachronic corpus-based critical discourse analysis of LGBTQI representation in the Times between 1957-2017

这个跨学科的项目通过绘制同性恋身份和社区在英国媒体中的表现以及性别认同的语言如何变化，为英国女同性恋者、男同性恋者、双性恋者、变性人、同性恋者和双性人(LGBTQI)的历史研究做出了贡献。该方法将语言学与历史研究、后结构主义话语理论和文化研究相结合，为基于语料库的批评性话语分析(CDA)领域做出贡献。这些发现不仅将在学术界做出有价值的贡献，还将通过为LGBT历史月(LGBTHM)和英国校外活动(School Out UK)做出贡献而扩展到公共领域。这将以两种方式发生。首先，School Out UK主席提出了关于LGBTQI历史上特定时刻的主流代表性的问题(桑德斯，2018年)。其次，这项研究的结果将与LGBTHM和School Out UK分享，以帮助扩大对LGBTQI历史的理解，LGBTQI历史是事件和LGBTHM学校课程的基础。通过扩大我们对语言历史的理解，我们可以对英国LGBTQI人的历史提供更准确和交叉的理解。该项目将花费6年的时间兼职并回答以下问题：-英国媒体如何使用语言来论述身份和社区的概念，因为它们与LGBTQI人有关？-在1957-2017年间，这种表达方式发生了哪些变化？-这种表达方式对不同类型的LGBTQI人有什么潜在的影响？

This interdisciplinary project contributes to the historical study of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex (LGBTQI) people in the UK by mapping how queer identities and communities have been represented in the British press as well as how the language of sexual identity has changed. The methodology will contribute to the field of corpus-based critical discourse analysis (CDA) by integrating linguistics with historical research, poststructuralist discourse theory, and cultural studies. The findings will not only make a valuable contribution in academia but will also be extended to the public sphere through a contribution to LGBT History Month (LGBTHM) and Schools Out UK. This will occur in two ways. First, the chair of Schools OUT UK has provided questions regarding the mainstream representation of particular moments in LGBTQI history (Sanders, 2018). Secondly, the outcomes of this study will be shared with LGBTHM and Schools OUT UK in order to help broaden the historical understanding of LGBTQI history upon which the events and LGBTHM school curriculum are based. By broadening our understanding of language historically, we can provide for a more accurate and intersectionalunderstanding of the history of LGBTQI people in the UK. The project will take 6 years part-time and answer thefollowing questions:- How does the British press use language to discursively represent the concept of identity and communityas they relate to LGBTQI people?- In what ways have such representations changed between 1957-2017?- What are the potential consequences of such representations for different types of LGBTQI people?
