Dueling Discourses by Laura Felton Rosulek
Dueling Discourses offers qualitative and quantitative analyses of the linguistic and discursive forms utilized by opposing lawyers in their closing arguments during criminal trials.
While the book is heavily based in linguistics, including detailed analysis of the methodology in categorizing results, how a speaker includes or excludes through the use of language is defined for nonlinguistsTable 7.5 is particularly instructive in how to use and notice silencing, deemphasizing, and emphasizing in language in and out of the courtroom. * J. M. Keller, Florida Coastal School of Law, CHOICE *
Dueling Discourses is remarkably clear, systematic, and rigorous. * Corina Andone, Language and Dialogue *
