Abstract
By using large corpora of chronologically ordered language, it is possible to explore diachronic phenomena, identifying previously unknown correlations between language usage and time periods, or epochs. We focused on a statistical approach to epoch delimitation and introduced the task of epoch characterization. We investigated the significant changes in the distribution of terms in the Google N-gram corpus and their relationships with emotion words.
