Stylistic Analysis of Japanese Prime Ministers' Diet Addresses

چکیده
Introduction We are currently conducting systematic analyses of Japanese prime ministers’ Diet addresses after World War II. In addition to the analyses of the content of the addresses, stylistic analysis can be used to clarify the changing language usages of prime ministers and how these reflect their personal or individual styles. This study indicates that stylistic methods are useful for historical analysis of political texts. They can be applied for more large-scale texts and various research topics in humanities and social science.
