The electronic newsletter on Language and Law,
LANGUAGE IN THE
JUDICIAL PROCESS, is published at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
The intention of the editors is:
-
To list:
-
bibliographies and other tools
-
direct readers to
relevant organizations
-
provide program information.
-
To continue the fine tradition begun by Judith N. Levi,
whose bibliographical work on language and law over more
than a decade culminated in the publication of her 1994
bibliography, Language and Law: A Bibliographic
Guide to Social Science Research in the U.S.A. (ordering information).
For the title of the newsletter, we are
indebted to both Judith N. Levi and Anne Graffam Walker;
their pioneering work in organizing and coordinating both
the 1985 Georgetown University conference, "Language
in the Judicial Process," and the 1990 volume of the
same name, constituted a substantial contribution to the
developing field of language and law. We use the name
"Language in the Judicial Process" with their
permission.
The staff wishes to express its gratitude to the University of
Tennessee, Knoxville, Department of English for
continuing support.
