Ideology and the contextualization of ancient Chinese judicial opinions

Discursive practice of Chinese criminal adjudication: A genre perspective
Different from ordinary discourse, the institutional nature of courtroom discourse has attracted much scholarly attention in the field of applied linguistics and professional discourse studies.

However, little research has investigated the hybridizing construction of judges’ discourse and the contextual clues that may…
Analyzing interdiscursivity in legal genres: The case of Chinese lawyers’ written opinions
The traditional simplistic understanding of legal genre as homogeneous texts of legalese is recently confronted by researches focusing on the contextual aspects of legal communication, i.e. the production, circulation, and consumption of legal genres in diverse institutional contexts ( Candlin and Maley 1997 ; D’hondt and Van Der Houwen 2014 ). It is, according to these researches, more reasonable to think of legal genres as a hybrid combining th…

As a consequence, rather than assuming the traditional poker-face style of delivering news on television, news readers as televised personae are becoming more "informal" and "dialogic" in order to better relate to audiences. Eyebrow flashes, as a communicative resource in television news presentation, play an important part in construing the expressiveness of presenta…
