Abstract

This paper presents resources and lexical strategies for persuasive natural language processing. After the introduction of a specifically tagged corpus of political speeches, some forms of affective language processing in persuasive communication and prospects for application scenarios are provided. In particular Valentino, a prototype for valence shifting of existing texts, is described.
