Special Issue of Fachsprache on Legal
Phraseology and Specialised Meanings in
Multilingual Settings
Guest editors:
Stanisław Goźdź-Roszkowski (University of
Łódź)
Gianluca Pontrandolfo (University of
Trieste)
The editors invite submissions that present
innovative studies addressing
empirical/data-driven investigations on
phraseological patterns in legal
discourse/institutional settings, especially
from a contrastive, cross-linguistic and/or
corpus perspective. Special emphasis should be
placed on the role of phraseological items and
patterns in expressing and encoding specialised
meanings, including social, interactive and
cognitive aspects linked to knowledge
maintenance structure and transfer, generic
integrity and variation.
Possible topics include but are not limited to
the following:
1. How phraseological patterns reflect
conceptual knowledge frames, scripts and mental
models in which legal terms are embedded;
2. How phraseology is used to express
evaluation, evidentiality and stance;
3. How phraseological patterns can be used to
examine variation in legal genres;
4. How phraseology can contribute to
maintaining generic integrity;
5. The relationship between terminology and
phraseology in legal discourse;
6. Data-driven studies on traditional
phraseological patterns (e.g. lexical
collocations, lexical bundles, routine
formulae, doublets and triplets, etc.);
7. Phraseology and legal translation;
8. Translation-oriented studies of
phraseological patterns;
9. Translated vs. non-translated legal
phraseology;
