Phraseology in Legal and Institutional Settings: A Corpus-based Interdisciplinary Perspective: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Phraseology in Legal and Institutional Settings: A Corpus-based Interdisciplinary Perspective" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This volume presents a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of major developments in the study of how phraseology is used in a wide range of different legal and institutional contexts. This recent interest has been mainly sparked by the development of corpus linguistics research, which has both demonstrated the centrality of phraseological patterns in language and provided researchers with new and powerful analytical tools. However, there have been relatively few empirical studies of word combinations in the domain of law and in the many different contexts where legal discourse is used. This book seeks to address this gap by presenting some of the latest developments in the study of this linguistic phenomenon from corpus-based and interdisciplinary perspectives. The volume draws on current research in legal phraseology from a variety of perspectives: translation, comparative/contrastive studies, terminology, lexicography, discourse analysis and forensic linguistics. It contains contributions from leading experts in the field, focusing on a wide range of issues amply illustrated through in-depth corpus-informed analyses and case studies. Most contributions to this book are multilingual, featuring different legal systems and legal languages.

The volume will be a valuable resource for linguists interested in phraseology as well as lawyers and legal scholars, translators, lexicographers, terminologists and students who wish to pursue research in the area.

This book convincingly demonstrates the versatility of corpus linguistic - photo 1

This book convincingly demonstrates the versatility of corpus linguistic methods for the study of legal phraseology, which makes these methods relevant for many different strands of the study of legal communication, among them translation, comparative legal studies and questions of discourse.

Jan Engberg , Aarhus University, Denmark

For those of us concerned with legal texts, legal phraseology is a vital but under researched aspect of our daily lives. This timely book is unquestionably invaluable reading, offering an excellent review of carefully researched recent methodological advances. It provides essential, insightful, informative reflections suggesting diverse, innovative avenues of research.

Catherine Way , University of Granada, Spain

The nuances of legal language have mystified people inside and outside the legal profession for centuries. This volume provides a major step forward in understanding how and why actors within the legal system write and speak as they do. The book should be of great interest not only to legal and linguistic academics, but also to those who work to craft legal language in legislatures and elsewhere.

Lawrence M. Solan , Brooklyn Law School, USA

This volume, edited by two outstanding scholars in the field, gives an impressive overview of cutting-edge approaches to the study of legal phraseology. The combination of quantitative corpus linguistics and qualitative discourse analysis extends our understanding of legal phraseology across a diversity of European legal languages and legal systems. Everybody interested in phraseology, corpus linguistics, and translation studies should read this book.

Series Editors

Anne Wagner, Universit du Littoral Cte dOpale, France and Vijay Kumar Bhatia, formerly of City University of Hong Kong

This series encourages innovative and integrated perspectives within and across the boundaries of law, language and communication, with particular emphasis on issues of communication in specialized socio-legal and professional contexts. It seeks to bring together a range of diverse yet cumulative research traditions in order to identify and encourage interdisciplinary research.

The series welcomes proposals both edited collections as well as single-authored monographs emphasizing critical approaches to law, language and communication, identifying and discussing issues, proposing solutions to problems, offering analyses in areas such as legal construction, interpretation, translation and de-codification.

Introduction

Expressions with the fact that are common in spoken and written English, with nearly 13,000 occurrences in the British National Corpus. This chapter analyses such expressions when they are used in legal language, with the help of their translation equivalents in German.

To set the scene, here is an example from the Acquis Communautaire archive (see Corpus and Methodology for more about this corpus):

  • (1) In setting the fines, the Commission also took into account the duration of the infringement, the large size and overall resources of some of the undertakings and the fact that some of the undertakings were addressees of previous Commission decisions establishing infringements of the same type.

In (1) we have a construction consisting of the fact that followed by the noun complement clause some of the undertakings were addressees of previous Commission decisions establishing infringements of the same type. The entire construction functions as the object (in fact, the third of three conjoined objects) of the multi-word verb take into account in the matrix clause. One can get a sense of the extraordinary range and versatility of the phraseological unit the fact that from Hunston (2011): five pages in that study list 43 sub-types with different verbs and prepositions in the New Scientist corpus ( due to the fact that , stems from the fact that , lose sight of the fact that , etc.). Hunston also presents six more examples where the expression is clause-initial (e.g. The fact that P. suturalis has two different forms of shell needs a different kind of explanation ) (2011: 112116). Illuminating though her discussion is, it serves to indicate only some of the wide variety of uses of the fact that (Hunston does not mention examples like (1) where the construction is in object position), and to show the pressing need for more extensive analysis.

Despite the frequency of expressions with the fact that , they have hitherto been the subject of rather sparse and fragmentary research, probably for two main reasons. One is the relatively limited literature on noun complement clauses in general (but see Francis (1993), Ballier (2007) and Kant (2010) for some enlightening analysis and reviews of the literature). The second reason is that the field of phraseology did not become firmly established until recent times. Theoretical models which take phrases seriously, such as Pattern Grammar and Construction Grammar, are still quite new; and large corpora, along with the software to recognise and quantify the occurrence of words and phrases, have only been widely available in the last two decades. Lexicographers have, of course, long been very aware of multi-word expressions (MWEs), but detailed discussion of the practical and theoretical issues of identifying and classifying them has been rare: see Atkins and Rundell (2008: 166ff.) for a rare exception.
