The Routledge Handbook of Forensic Linguistics offers a
comprehensive survey of the subdiscipline of Forensic Linguistics,
with this new edition providing both updated overviews from leading
figures in the field and exciting new contributions from the next
generation of forensic linguists. The Handbook is a unique work of
reference to the leading ideas, debates, topics, approaches and
methodologies in forensic linguistics and language and the law. It
comprises 43 chapters, including entirely new contributions from
many international experts, in the areas of Aboriginal claimants,
appraisal and stance, author identities online, biased language in
capital trials, corpus approaches, false confessions, forensic
phonetics, forensic transcription, the historical courtroom, legal
interpretation, multilingual law, police crisis negotiation,
speaker profiling, and trolling. The chapters include a wealth of
examples and case studies so the reader can see forensic
linguistics applied and in action. Edited and authored by the
world’s leading academics and practitioners, The Routledge
Handbook of Forensic Linguistics is a vital resource for advanced
students, researchers and scholars, and will also be of interest to
legal, law enforcement and security professionals.
This is a second edition of the ground-breaking volume Texts and
Practices: Readings in Critical Discourse Analysis, which was the
first published collection of chapters presenting critical
discourse analysis theory and practice. Critical discursive
approaches have now become the main trend in most discursive and
semiotic investigations. It was then, and is especially now,
predominantly concerned with identifying, demystifying and
resisting the ways language and semiotic systems are used to
reflect, create and sustain inequalities in specific contexts. This
new collection presents contributions by all six of the living
authors who were central to the first edition: Norman Fairclough,
Theo van Leeuwen, Teun van Dijk, Ruth Wodak, Caldas-Coulthard and
Coulthard - plus an edited version of a jointly authored classic
chapter originally authored by Roger Fowler and Gunther Kress.
There are four new chapters written by the other leading members of
the foundational 1990s European Critical Discourse Analysis group:
Phil Graham, Jay Lemke, David Machin and Louisa Rojo and two by
young critical discourse researchers who have risen to prominence
more recently: Rodrigo Borba and German Canale. Texts and Practices
Revisited: Essential Readings in Critical Discourse Analysis
provides a representative collection of work which, while authored
by the pioneering researchers of the first wave of CDA, illustrates
their most recent concerns and their latest analytical techniques.
It is an essential text for all advanced students of English
language, linguistics, media and cultural studies.

This collection brings together for the first time in a single
volume many of the major figures in contemporary discourse studies.
Each chapter is an original contribution which has been
specifically commissioned for this book, and together they document
the wide range of concerns and techniques which characterise the
discipline at the turn of the century. Discourse and Social Life is
concerned with a variety of different types of data - talk, text
and interaction - and covers research sites which range from the
home setting through the health care setting and the courtroom to
the public sphere. The book not only provides a critical,
historical overview of different traditions of discourse analysis,
but also projects to some extent the possible developments of this
field of study, as other allied disciplines (Philosophy,
Psychology, Sociology, Rhetoric and Communication Studies) are
taking a discursive turn. Readers are invited to draw parallels
between these different approaches to studying discourse in its
social context. The contributors are- Sally Candlin, Malcolm
Coulthard, Justine Coupland, Nikolas Coupland, Norman Fairclough,
Ruqaiya Hasan, Robert Kaplan, Geoff Leech, Yon Maley, Greg Myers,
Celia Roberts, Srikant Sarangi, Ron Scollon, Theo van Leeuwen,
Henry Widdowson and Ruth Wodak.
This work provides an overview of a wide range of approaches to
written text analysis. It includes both classic and specially
commissioned papers by distinguished authors, which share a common
linguistic framework. The pieces contain a variety of focuses from
the patterning of paragraphs, sections or whole texts to the
organization of clauses, individual expressions and single words,
as well as a variety of text-types. The examples used range from
pure science through social science, academic journals, weekly
magazines and newspapers, to literary narratives. This collection
forms the basis for an course on written text analysis that should
be of interest to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students.
The book explores ways in which the formal methods of linguistics
can cast light on the structure of verbal interaction, and in
particular considers how successive utterances cohere together in
continuous spoken discourse. Beginning with an earlier model of
discourse analysis elaborated to deal with teacher-pupil
interaction in the classroom, it then reviews attempts to extend
this model to a variety of discourses such as committee talk,
doctor-patient interviews, broadcast discussions and the monologue
of lectures. The extension of the original model to other
situations has prompted a number of innovations and additional
insights which are expounded in a series of contributions linked by
complimentary themes. There are contributions on the role of
intonation and of kinetics in discourse analysis; explorations of
the problems of the analytic category 'sentence' and of the
problems raised by casual conversation; and there is extended
discussion of the structural properties underlying exchanges of
utterances. The book moves easily between data and theory, forming
a unified whole. It sums up a continuing and lively debate within a
common tradition of discourse analysis and may well serve as a
programmatic statement for future work in the field.
The central concern of this book is the analysis of verbal
interaction or discourse. This first six chapters report and
evaluate major theoretical advances in the description of
discourse. The final chapters demonstrate how the findings of
discourse analysis can be used to investigate second-language
teaching and first-language acquisition and to analyse literary
texts.

An Introduction to Forensic Linguistics: Language in Evidence has
established itself as the essential textbook written by leading
authorities in this expanding field. The second edition of this
bestselling textbook begins with a new introduction and continues
in two parts. Part One deals with the language of the legal
process, and begins with a substantial new chapter exploring key
theoretical and methodological approaches. In four updated chapters
it goes on to cover the language of the law, initial calls to the
emergency services, police interviewing, and courtroom discourse.
Part Two looks at language as evidence, with substantially revised
and updated chapters on the following key topics: the forensic
linguist forensic phonetics authorship attribution the linguistic
investigation of plagiarism the linguist as expert witness. The
authors combine an array of perspectives on forensic linguistics,
using knowledge and experience gained in legal settings - Coulthard
in his work as an expert witness for cases such as the Birmingham
Six and the Derek Bentley appeal, and Johnson as a former police
officer. Research tasks, further reading, web links, and a new
conclusion ensure that this remains the core textbook for courses
in forensic linguistics and language and the law. A glossary of key
terms is also available at

as diverse as blackmail, trademarks and warning labels. The
Routledge Handbook of Forensic Linguistics includes a comprehensive
introduction to the field written by the editors and a collection
of thirty-seven original chapters written by the world's leading
academics and professionals, both established and up-and-coming,
designed to equip a new generation of students and researchers to
carry out forensic linguistic research and analysis. The Routledge
Handbook of Forensic Linguistics is the ideal resource for
undergraduates or postgraduates new to the area.
