1. A computer-implemented method for extracting meaning from a plurality of documents, the method comprising: identifying, by a computer, a meaning taxonomy including a plurality of concepts; identifying a plurality of meaning loaded entities within the meaning taxonomy; identifying a group of syntactic structures including at least one normalized syntactic structure and a plurality of non-normalized syntactic structures, the at least one normalized syntactic structure being used to standardize the plurality of non-normalized syntactic structures; associating the at least one normalized syntactic structure with at least one of the plurality of concepts; associating at least one of the plurality of non-normalized syntactic structures with the at least one normalized syntactic structure; and associating at least one of the plurality of documents with the at least one of the plurality of concepts based on a relationship between the at least one of the plurality of documents and the at least one of the plurality of non-normalized syntactic structures.
