Description
Stylistics is an identification method which seeks to match one piece of writing to another by analyzing spelling, text arrangement, abbreviations, word formation, and syntax. Forensic Linguistics documents advances in this field, including quantitative methods of data analysis, a way to provide scientific standardization, and research for determining the significance of style markers. Written for criminal justice professionals outside the linguistics discipline as well as within, the book begins with coverage of linguistics and writing before it focuses on stylistics. It provides up-to-date coverage of the use of stylistics in the adjudication of both criminal and civil cases.
