Bakalářská práce bude zkoumat jazyk skupiny Beatles a jeho charakteristické rysy v raném (1958-1964) a pozdním období tvorby (1965-1970). Výchozím bodem bude frekvenční seznam slov získaný pomocí konkordančního programu AntConc. Autorka se na základě vybraných písní z raného a pozdního období tvorby zaměří jednak na rovinu gramatickou, např. užívání zájmen a jejich reference (Inglis 2000: 89), užívání časů, vedlejších vět a jednak na rovinu lexikální, tj. variabilitu používaných slov, typické kolokace, „clusters“, n-gramy. Práce si klade za cíl srovnat jazyk Beatles ve dvou obdobích tvorby a ukázat tak, zda a jak se rysy jejich jazyka změnily. Práce bude vypracována v anglickém jazyce. |
