Why is it important?
This was the first publication outlining this important methodological approach that makes sense out of language clouds. Clouds simply provide a form of mist fro the lexically ignorant, networks allow you to explore that data and extract meaning in context. It is a true corpus-dtievn methodology in a Sinclairian perpective. Much copied, name changing is a bad academic practice.
