Language as Evidence
This edited book provides a comprehensive survey of the modern state of the art in forensic linguistics. Part I of the book focuses on the role of the linguist as an expert witness in common law and civil law jurisdictions, the relation of expert witnesses and lawyers, ethics standards, and courtroom interaction. Part II deals with some of the major areas of expertise of forensic linguistics as the scientific study of language as evidence, namely authorship identification, speaker identification, text authentication, deception and lie detection, plagiarism detection, and cyber language crimes. This book is intended to be used as a reference for academics, students and practitioners of Linguistics, Forensic Linguistics, Law, Criminology, and Forensic Psychology, among other disciplines.
The Handbook of Technology and Second Language Teaching and Learning
The Handbook of Technology and Second Language Teaching and Learning presents a comprehensive exploration of the impact of technology on the field of second language learning. The rapidly evolving language-technology interface has propelled dramatic changes in, and increased opportunities for, second language teaching and learning. Its influence has been felt no less keenly in the approaches and methods of assessing learners' language and researching language teaching and learning. Contributions from a team of international scholars make up the Handbook consisting of four parts: language teaching and learning through technology; the technology-pedagogy interface; technology for L2 assessment...
Argumentation and Language — Linguistic, Cognitive and Discursive Explorations
This volume focuses on the role language plays at all levels of the argumentation process. It explores the effects that specific linguistic choices may have in the production and the reception of arguments and in doing so, it moves beyond the first, necessary, descriptive stance provided by current literature on the topic. Each chapter provides an original take illuminating one or more of the following three issues: the range of linguistic resources language users draw on as they argue; how cognitive processes of meaning construction may influence argumentative practices; and which discursive devices can be used to fulfil a number of argumentative goals. The volume includes theoretical and e...

Computational Semiotics
Can semiotics and computers be compatible? Can computation advance semiotics by enhancing the scientific basis of the theory of signs? Coupling semiotics, a philosophical and phenomenological tradition concerned with theories of signs, with computation, a formal discipline, may seem controversial and paradoxical. Computational Semiotics tackles these controversies head-on and attempts to bridge this gap. Showing how semiotics can build the same type of conceptual, formal, and computational models as other scientific projects, this book opens up a rich domain of inquiry toward the formal understanding of semiotic artifacts and processes. Examining how pairing semiotics with computation can bring more methodological rigor and logical consistency to the epistemic quest for the forms and functions of meaning, without compromising the important interpretive dynamics of semiotics, this book offers a new cutting-edge, model-driven theory to the field.
L'implicite sur les réseaux sociaux
L'implicite, mieux connu sous le nom de sous-entendu, est partout. Que ce soit pour mieux se faire comprendre, pour attirer l'attention de notre auditeur, pour s'assurer qu'un message passe bien ou au contraire qu'il sera le plus piquant possible... L'implicite est un outil précieux auquel nous recourons sans même nous en rendre compte. Mais qu'en est-il sur les réseaux sociaux ? Cette recherche analyse l'utilisation et la construction de l'implicite dans les forums de discussion de Doctissimo. Au départ des figures de la rhétorique et de la pragmatique, elle aboutit à une catégorisation innovante des formes de l'implicite non conventionnel et met en lumière leur lien avec l'intensité émotionnelle de la communication et leur rôle-clé dans la gestion relationnelle qui s'y joue.
Democracias en extinción
No es momento de divagar ni de confiarse, sino de enfrentarnos al peligro más acuciante en la actualidad. Hoy es incuestionable que las extremas derechas están en auge en todo el mundo y, si no hacemos nada para evitarlo, podemos ser la generación que pierda los derechos conquistados. Nuestras democracias están en peligro de extinción, y sus depredadores gozan de mayor respaldo, tienen una mejor imagen y son más fuertes cada día. En muchas regiones del mundo ya han llegado al poder y, cuando gobiernan, nada es como era: están mutilando la democracia desde dentro hasta transformarla en una autocracia con escaso margen para revertir la situación. Steven Forti analiza en la presente ob...
Start-up du vin
Le numérique bouleverse tous les champs de l'économie et le secteur du vin n'y échappe pas. En effet, même dans ce domaine, aux traditions bien ancrées, les méthodes évoluent considérablement et les acteurs nouveaux se multiplient. Que ce soit dans les vignes, pendant la vinification, en cave ou lors de la vente ou même pour la dégustation, la numérisation des procédés et des échanges est devenue omniprésente. Les start-up l'ont bien compris et font le pari de révolutionner le monde vitivinicole en bouleversant les codes pour simplifier le travail du vigneron et ouvrir le marché du vin à de nouveaux publics.
