Rezensionen

'This book is the first comprehensive synthesis of resources, teaching applications, and empirical research devoted to data-driven learning of Italian. Deeply rooted in the field's history, supplemented with detailed theoretical and methodological considerations, and exemplified by a longitudinal empirical study, Luciana Forti's book is an invaluable reference resource, model, and inspiration for expanding corpus-based research and teaching beyond English.'

Nina Vyatkina, University of Kansas, USA

'This book represents an invaluable contribution to the data-driven learning approach for Italian: researchers, teachers and students will find much to inform their work with Italian and other less-represented languages. Luciana Forti confirms her role as an important researcher in data-driven learning, especially for Italian as a foreign language. The author shows a solid understanding of research methodology in the field and an ability to transmit this via practical examples of her own research, whether qualitative or quantitative, emic or etic. The book recognises the challenges of dealing with DDL for languages that are under-researched and currently under-resourced, but provides a wealth of suggestions to meet that challenge.'
