Corpus stylistics analysis of Samuel Butler’s translations of the Odyssey and the Iliad

March 26, 2023March 26, 2023 Discipline: Linguistics

Hi there,

I need a research paper with a corpus-based analysis of one or more stylistic aspects of Samuel Butler’s translations of the Odyssey and the Iliad.
By coprus sylistics I mean any aspect that can be found by using the methods described by the following sources:
Mahlberg, Michaela. Corpus stylistics and Dickens’s fiction. New York: Routledge, 2012.
Ho, Yufang. Corpus stylistics in principles and practice: A stylistic exploration of John Fowles’ The Magus. London: Continuum, 2011.
Semino, Elena. Corpus stylistics: Speech, writing and thought presentation in a corpus of English writing. London: Routledge, 2004.
Fischer-Starcke, Bettina. Corpus linguistics and the study of literature: Stylistics in Jane Austen’s novels. London: Continuum, 2010.
McIntyre, Dan, and Brian Walker. Corpus Stylistics: Theory and Practice. Edinburgh University Press, 2019.
Short, Mick, and Elena Semino. Corpus Stylistics: Speech, Writing and Thought Presentation in a Corpus of English Writing. Taylor & Francis Group, 2011.Short, Mick, and Elena Semino. 
Mahlberg, Michaela, Wolfgang Teubert, and Lorenzo Mastropierro. Corpus Stylistics in Heart of Darkness and Its Italian Translations. Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, 2017.
Butler’s translations of The Odyssey and The Iliad can be downloaded from Project Gutenberg

https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/2199https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/2199
If you could use Sketch Engine as a a corpus manager and text analysis software it’d be grand but it’s not compulsory. You get to decide the aspects, the title and everything as long as the methodology above is applicable to the two texts.
Further info on the stylesheet can be found on this page and the attached documents:
