Corpus Stylistics Analysis of <i>Anne of Green Gables</i>

语料库文体学是语言学与文体学相结合的研究方法,已经被频繁地应用于文学作品的研究当中。本文基于该方法,借助语料库分析软件WordSmith 4.0,构建小说《绿山墙的安妮》电子文本语料库,并以该小说同作者的其他小说为参照语料,对该作品中的主题词和高频三词词簇进行提取与分析。本研究从词汇层面与句法层面两个维度出发,探讨小说中人物关系、女性主义主题、地点意象及语言风格等方面的特点,以此加深对蒙哥马利语言风格的理解,也进一步展示了语料库文体学在文学研究中的实证价值和应用前景。Corpus stylistics, as an interdisciplinary approach combining linguistics and stylistics, has been increasingly applied to the study of literary works. This paper adopts this methodology and utilizes the corpus analysis software WordSmith 4.0 to construct an electronic text corpus of the novel Anne of Green Gables, using a selection of the author’s other works as a reference corpus. Through the extraction and analysis of keywords and high-frequency three-word clusters, the study explores features of the novel across both lexical and syntactic levels. Focusing on aspects such as character relationships, feminist themes, spatial imagery, and linguistic style, the research aims to deepen the understanding of Montgomery’s distinctive language use and further demonstrate the empirical value and broad applicability of corpus stylistics in literary studies.
