Madres tardías y mujeres menopáusicas
En las sociedades occidentales, el aumento de la longevidad femenina ha permitido a las mujeres prolongar su vida profesional, social y personal. No obstante, esta extensión vital ha estado acompañada de discursos que condicionan sus decisiones sobre la maternidad y el envejecimiento. Dos momentos clave —la maternidad tardía (a partir de los 35 años) y la menopausia— son objeto de medicalización y control. La maternidad tardía suele ser tratada c…
Right to Menopause
Menopause often leads to a dual form of discrimination rooted in age and gender. Frequently overlooked, the side effects of menopause compel many women to leave their jobs due to discrimination or the psychological and physical challenges hindering their work. Recent British legal rulings in favour of women claiming workplace discrimination indicate a growing recognition of menopause as an “invisible” factor contributing to women’s labour market …
Sentiment and emotion in financial journalism
Sentiment and emotion play a crucial role in financial journalism, influencing market perceptions and reactions. However, the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on the language used in financial newspapers remains underexplored. The present study addresses this gap by comparing data from specialized financial newspapers in English and Spanish, focusing on the years immediately prior to the COVID-19 crisis (2018–2019) and during the pandemic itself (20…
Studying Legal Persuasion and Emotion in Spanish and English
The present work examines the role of persuasive lexicon in legal discourse through the analysis of emotional devices at a lexical and rhetorical level. Our preliminary premise is that emotion is deployed by experts to convey the sentiment of shared values and epistemic trust: the need to rely on the tenets of the law as fair and conducive to the common good. The corpus of our study is constituted by the conclusions in their original Spanish, and…
Warning, or Manipulating in Pandemic Times? A Critical and Contrastive Analysis of Official Discourse Through the English and Spanish News
Focusing on media discourse and adopting a Critical Discourse Analysis—linguistic and rhetorical—perspective, this paper explores the role of the media in influencing citizens’ behaviour towards the COVID-19 crisis. The paper evaluates the set of potentially persuasive lexical items and emotional implicatures used by two quality newspapers, i.e. The Guardian (UK edition) and El País (Spain edition), to report on the pandemic during the three wave…
Terror at Home On the Rhetoric of Domestic Violence Legislation in the United Kingdom and Spain
The present study analyses two Parliamentary Acts on the subject of domestic violence: the Spanish Organic Law 1/2004 on Comprehensive Protection Measures against Gender Violence and the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act 2004 from the United Kingdom. The analysis of the texts (organised into two corpora, SPA and UKA respectively) was carried out in three different stages, the first one consisting in the automatic processing of the two text…

Por ello, el de la internacionalización es un campo q…
Power distance and persuasion
Opacity in International Legal Texts
Due to this international character of English, texts in this language –as proffered by several major institutions in the area of public and private law− are deployed as necessary tools of communication in the course of the establishment of transnational commercial and juridical relationships. However, English as the language of the law has been branded as a complex, opaque, kind of discourse. The aim of the present paper is to address the questi…
Metaphorical pattern analysis in financial texts
The hidden dimension of the language of corporations in America and Spain
Starting from Edward T. Hall's assumptions regarding the cultural dimension as the 'hidden dimension' of communication, this study tries to highlight the fact that legal culture vastly influences legal interaction and, hence, varies from system to system. The translation of Company Law from American Legal English into Spanish consists of an exercise in inter-legal communication, as the translator must be aware of the culturally different way s in…
