What is Forensic Linguistics: a career retrospective

It is our great pleasure to announce the third webinar in our MARS series hosted by the Dept. of English Language and Literature, Faculty of Arts, Ain Shams University.

Our guest speaker is the renowned Forensic Linguist, Dr Alison May. Dr. Alison is a corpus-based forensic linguist. She is a member of the International Association of Forensic and Legal Linguistics (IAFLL) and the International Pragmatic Association (IPrA). Her publications cover several sub-fields of forensic linguistics, including police interviewing, historical and contemporary courtroom discourse, plagiarism, and authorship analysis. She is co-author of An Introduction to Forensic Linguistics: Language in Evidence (2007; 2016) and co-editor of The Routledge Handbook of Forensic Linguistics (2010; 2021).

In this webinar Dr. Alison will reflect on her 30 years in the field, which builds on her six-and a-half years as a police officer. She outlines five sub-fields of FL that were explored in her teaching and research: legal language, police interviewing, the contemporary and historical courtroom and authorship analysis. Using examples from teaching and research, she demonstrates the value of quantitative, qualitative and computational approaches to data analysis and shares some of the results of her own and others' research.

Come and join us on the 23rd of April at 6:00 pm Cairo Time.
