This book explores the techniques and discursive strategies that
are typical of the communicative interactions between professionals
and laymen in a jury trial. It also investigates the complex
relationship that emerges between written and oral communication in
different phases of the trial. The analysis takes into account the
many nuances that define these dynamics and the various
possibilities that the jurors have to intervene in the process,
particularly in the light of recent procedural developments.
Special attention is devoted to the observation of the specific
strategies adopted to illustrate legal ideas and concepts to the
jurors according to the speakers' various communicative purposes.
By adopting a discourse analytical perspective which combines both
qualitative and quantitative approaches, the book highlights the
hybridity of the language used in court and the combination of
different styles and registers.
