Cross-linguistic approaches and applications to phraseology in legal and institutional discourse
No full textThe collection of articles in this book presents some of the latest developments in the study of the phenomenon of phraseology in legal and institutional discourse. These contributions come from two main sources: selected papers from a workshop devoted to Corpus Approaches to Legal Phraseology organised by the editors of this volume during the XX European Symposium on Languages for Special Purposes held in Vienna in July 2015 and some recent invited contributions to the topic made by both renowned linguists and young promising researchers.This book is an attempt to continue, update and extend different avenues of research signalled in our earlier edited publication of a special issue Legal Phraseology Today. A Corpus- Based View in Fachsprache: The International Journal of Specialised Communication, in 2015. Much of the ground covered in the next two sections has already been explored in the introduction to that special issue (Gozdz- Roszkowski and Pontrandolfo 2015)
Su alcune tombe pestane:proposta di una lettura
No full textAngela Greco Pontrandolfo, Su alcune tombe pestane : proposta di una lettura, p. 31-98.
In questo articolo si prendono in esame quattro tombe delle necropoli pestane che hanno restituito, fra gli altri oggetti del corredo, numerosi pendagli di ambra scolpita raffiguranti e protomi di ariete e teste femminili del tipo definito «Roscigno». L'analisi dei materiali che costituiscono i corredi : vasi a figure rosse del pittore del Tirso, vasi a figure rosse sovraddipinte, pestani, assimilabili alla maniera del pittore di Sydney, vasi a vernice nera, fibule e terrecotte figurate pestane - ci permettono di datare le ambre ai primi decenni del IV sec. a.C. e non alla fine del VI sec. a.C, cronologia che si ricavava sulla base della sola analisi stilistica dei pezzi attribuibili al gruppo «Roscigno».
La comparsa delle ambre nelle tombe pestane coincide con un cambiamento nel rituale funerario : corredi ricchi per la quantità degli oggetti oltre che per la qualità, numerosi oggetti di ornamento nelle tombe femminili, armi nelle tombe maschili, comparsa dell'uso di dipingere le pareti interne della tombe - che è da mettere in relazione con la conquista lucana di Poseidonia.Greco Pontrandolfo Angela.

Marcadores argumentativos del contraste y discurso judicial: un estudio propedéutico para la traducción
Full text linkThe present paper stems from a contrastive corpus-based study of phraseology in Spanish, Italian and English criminal judgments (Pontrandolfo 2013). By exploring the Corpus of Criminal Judgments (COSPE), a large comparable trilingual corpus (Spanish, Italian, English) of approximately 6 million words, the present paper aims at investigating the close relationship among specialised discourse, discourse markers and translation.
The focus of the study is on special particles which play a pivotal role in judicial texts: “contrargumentative markers” (Portolés 1998, Montolío 2001) or “antioriented argumentative markers” (Escandell 2013), which, following Rudolph (1996) have been labeled “argumentative markers of contrast”.
The primary objective of the paper is to carry out a quantitative analysis of the distribution of this type of discourse markers in COSPE, as well as a qualitative analysis aimed at characterising the markers uses in COSPE and identifying trends of use in judicial discourse. The secondary objective, which nevertheless guides the whole study, is to carry out a legal translation-oriented analysis. Indeed, studying discourse markers is a necessary precondition for translators, since the semantic and pragmatic relations conveyed by these particles and their distributional differences represent the guidelines for the selection of adequate translation solutions (cf. Visconti 2000, Garofalo 2006).
From a methodological point of view, the study combines a qualitative approach oriented at the discourse genre (cf. Bhatia 1993, Garofalo 2009) with a more qualiquantitative approach based on corpus linguistics, more specifi cally on corpus-assisted discourse studies (Partington 2004, Partington et al. 2013)

Aproximación gradual a la traducción jurídica: un recorrido didáctico
Full text linkEl presente artículo se enmarca dentro de la macro-área de la didáctica de la traducción especializada y, en particular, en la enseñanza de la traducción jurídica.
El trabajo intenta sentar los cimientos para la definición y organización de algunos materiales didácticos para la enseñanza de la traducción jurídica. El objetivo final es dotar al estudiante de las herramientas necesarias para analizar y traducirlos principales géneros textuales jurídicos, con precisión y propiedad morfosintáctica, léxica, terminológica, fraseológica, semántica y pragmática. La propuesta se basa en la aplicación del método de la “aproximación gradual” (Widdowson 1978: 91) a los textos jurídicos, según el enfoque abogado por Garzone (2007: 211-216). El método consiste en la exploración de la diversificación vertical del discurso de especialidad jurídico (Calvi 2009: 28-32), tomando como punto de partida los textos menos especializados y más divulgativos para llegar, paulatinamente, a los textos más especializados, típicos del discurso jurídico. La propuesta temática que se desarrolla en el presente trabajo se articula en una parte teórica y una práctica, que consta a su vez de cuatro bloques, utilizables conjuntamente como bloques troncales de una asignatura entera o como unidades individuales: 1) entre traducción jurídica y traducción literaria: el caso de los courtroom thriller (Pontrandolfo 2012); 2) traducción de textos divulgativos periodísticos sobre derecho; 3) análisis y traducción de textos jurídicos internacionales y europeos; 4) traducción de textos jurídicos nacionales (textos doctrinales, legislativos, administrativos, notariales y judiciales). La propuesta confiere una importancia notable a la parte práctica, de manera que el objetivo didáctico no sea solamente la retención de definiciones y teorías sobre el análisis textual, sino más bien la participación activa del alumnado mediante distintos recursos
Sensibly and appropriately the judge considered...A corpus-based study of sentence adverbs in judicial language
Full text linkThe paper presents a contrastive corpus-assisted discourse study of sentence adverbs in Italian, English and Spanish judicial discourse. The hypothesis guiding the study is that, although judges’ attitude is supposed to be impartial, as they represent the so-called “bouche de la loi”, their opinion is present in the texts and sentence adverbs are one of the pragmatic vehicles used to express their stance. The corpus used for the analysis is a trilingual subcorpus of COSPE (Pontrandolfo 2016) that has been POS-tagged (194,000 tokens for each language). The focus has then been placed exclusively on adverbs ending in -mente and -ly for being those that more than others contribute to express evaluative nuances in judicial discourse. Results demonstrate that quantitatively adverbs in -mente/-ly do not account for a significant percentage, which is in line with Biber et al.’s (1999) findings in other registers (conversation, academic prose). However, qualitatively and discursively, these adverbs play a pivotal role at a pragmatic level, since they contribute to judicial argumentation (cf., among others, Mazzi 2014)
