Abstract:
Contemporarily, stylistics today has developed into its multiplicity – one of which is forensic stylistics. Being a powerfully legal written discourse, Supreme Court decisions are a rich corpus in which linguistic vis-a-vis stylistic choices of Court justices could be examined. This study is a humble attempt at stylistically analyzing Supreme Court decisions in Philippine English (PhE) drafted by two Filipino justices. Specifically, it sought to investigate on the classes, placements, and environments of adverbials of attitude and emphasis employed by the two justices, and drew their implications to teaching and learning English for Legal Purposes (ELP). Using McMenamin (2012), Quirk, Greenbaum, Leech, and Svartvik (1985), and Dita’s (2011) frameworks, 54 randomly selected Supreme Court decisions as primary sources of legal language were analyzed. Results are the following. Firstly, the classes of adverbials of attitude in Supreme Court decisions in PhE used by the two judges were the evaluation to the subject of the clause, judgment to the whole clause, and evaluation to an action performed by the subject of the clause, while those adverbials of emphasis were adverbials of conviction and doubt. Secondly, both adverbials they used have placements that were frequently medial and less initial in sentences where they belonged. Thirdly, the two justices put their adverbials within two principal environments, i.e. within functor, and before/after the verb among others. In these regards, legal and stylistic explanations with respect to these recurrent linguistic features in the two justices’ Court decisions were revealed. Implications of the study to ELP are explained. Lastly, trajectories for future (forensic) stylistic analyses have been recommended.

(Title: A Forensic Linguistic Study Case: Hoax of Recorded Voice Who Was Allegedly From Gatot Nurmantyo). This study aimed to describe the comparison between languages on Gatot Nurmantyo's Similar Voice Sample (SVS) recording with language on Gatot Nurmantyo's Original Voice Sample (OVS) recordings. The data source were one SVS record and three OVS records (OVS01—OVS03). Data were collected through observation, copying, and recording. The instrument for data collection was in the form of human, researcher himself with the recording devices and stationery. The analysis was carried out comprehensively with a review of various aspects including Phonology, Sociolinguistics, Discourse, and Stylistics. The results of the study were as follows. First, there were significant differences between languages on SVS and language on all three OVS recordings in terms of Sociolinguistic, Discourse and Stylistic aspects. Second, on the Phonological aspect there was a tendency for the similarities between language on the SVS recording and language on all three OVS recordings in several parts including the duration of word utterance, the energy intensity of the word utterance, and the sound of the words. Therefore, it could be concluded that on a Classical Likelihood Scales, the SVS and OVS recordings were not from the same speaker. Keywords: forensic linguistic, comprehensive, recording, Praat

Abstract:
The article describes the use of linguistic and psychological knowledge in the forensic expert activity of the Republic of Kazakhstan as an independent form of complex psychological and philological research where experts who obtained knowledge in the field of psychology and philology take part. During the implementation of this type of research, research methods have been developed that are included in the State Register of Methods of Forensic Research of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In addition, the article states that further development of this area in forensic expert activities will contribute to the formation of a new type of research – Forensic Religious Expertise. The direct application of linguistic knowledge in conducting forensic expertises is subdivided into five areas, such as: expert examination of real works on charges of extremist activity, as well as on charges of violating racial, religious, national and social hate and hostility, linguistic examination of advertising texts and treaties, linguistic expert examination of trademarks, verbal study of crimes related to the propaganda of extremism and terrorism, in the investigation of corruption crimes, fraud, extortion. The article also shows the connection of the linguistic expertise with other types, for example, with a judicial video phonography examination, in case of the need for identification of the speaker by verbal speech on the phonogram under study, during the author’s examination for the authorship of the text, in the psychological and forensic expertise – for the solution of question of the learned speeches of the suspect, other persons during the interrogation, other investigative actions. The author presents the results of a comparative analysis of the use of linguistic knowledge abroad, in particular, in the UK. Its peculiarity is that linguistic research is carried out at scientific educational centers of the humanitarian orientation. The following directions in linguistic studies conducted in this country are considered: a) forensic authore-identification, the essence of which is the determining the authorship of oral or written text, individual characteristics of the author (age, way of life, religious and political views, nationality, gender, profession, etc., b) forensic phonetics which involves the use of phonetics and phonology – sections of linguistics, c) forensic stylistics aimed at solving issues related to the plagiarism of the semantic content of the texts, while the author states that in Kazakhstan the decision on this issue is assigned to the competence of authore-identification examination, d) discourse analysis as the most promising type of research at present, is connected with research of written, verbal text in combination with non-verbal means of communication (gestures, facial expressions). Key words: legal linguistics, discourse, psychological and philological examination, forensic authore-identification, products of speech activity, linguistic research, psychological research.

Abstract:
A research, in any field, starts with either a passing idea or a bee in one’s mind. Research in the field of language study, for instance, in all its branches, is a rich area where in hundreds of ideas and problems can be thought of and investigated. Needless to say, the study of language includes generally (linguistics: phonetic, phonology, morphology, syntax, comparative linguistics, etc.), (applied linguistics: pragmatics, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, biolinguistics, clinical linguistics, experimental linguistics, computational linguistics, mathematical linguistics, forensic linguistics, corpus linguistics, contrastive analysis, discourse analysis, stylistics and error analysis, etc.), and (educational linguistics: language learning, teaching, and acquisition, etc.). Due to this, a certain problem or an idea in any of the above areas can be investigated from different points of view; that is, using either the correlational research approach, case-study, survey, experimental, ethnographic or the large-scale research approach. Actually, it is claimed in this paper that the above mentioned research approaches are different yet alike. This last point, however, is the major aim of this paper where in the six research approaches are compared and contrasted. At last, the researcher claims that no matter what a researcher in language study will follow since this approach fulfills the questions of his or her study logically, scientifically, and comes up with useful and fruitful bits of information and knowledge. Keywords: Research approaches, Language study, Correlational research, Case-study, Experimental study, Survey study, Ethnographic study, Large-scale study, Comparative and contrastive studies.

Abstract:
E-mail has become the most popular Internet application and with its rise in use has come an inevitable increase in the use of e-mail for criminal purposes. It is possible for an e-mail message to be sent anonymously or through spoofed servers. Computer forensics analysts need a tool that can be used to identify the author of such e-mail messages. This thesis describes the development of such a tool using techniques from the fields of stylometry and machine learning. An author's style can be reduced to a pattern by making measurements of various stylometric features from the text. E-mail messages also contain macro-structural features that can be measured. These features together can be used with the Support Vector Machine learning algorithm to classify or attribute authorship of e-mail messages to an author providing a suitable sample of messages is available for comparison. In an investigation, the set of authors may need to be reduced from an initial large list of possible suspects. This research has trialled authorship characterisation based on sociolinguistic cohorts, such as gender and language background, as a technique for profiling the anonymous message so that the suspect list can be reduced.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis empirically investigates how a corpus linguistic approach can address the main theoretical and methodological challenges facing the field of forensic authorship analysis. Linguists approach the problem of questioned authorship from the theoretical position that each person has their own distinctive idiolect (Coulthard 2004: 431). However, the notion of idiolect has come under scrutiny in forensic linguistics over recent years for being too abstract to be of practical use (Grant 2010; Turell 2010). At the same time, two competing methodologies have developed in authorship analysis. On the one hand, there are qualitative stylistic approaches, and on the other there are statistical ‘stylometric’ techniques. This study uses a corpus of over 60,000 emails and 2.5 million words written by 176 employees of the former American company Enron to tackle these issues in the contexts of both authorship attribution (identifying authors using linguistic evidence) and author profiling (predicting authors’ social characteristics using linguistic evidence). Analyses reveal that even in shared communicative contexts, and when using very common lexical items, individual Enron employees produce distinctive collocation patterns and lexical co-selections. In turn, these idiolectal elements of linguistic output can be captured and quantified by word n-grams (strings of n words). An attribution experiment is performed using word n-grams to identify the authors of anonymised email samples. Results of the experiment are encouraging, and it is argued that the approach developed here offers a means by which stylistic and statistical techniques can complement each other. Finally, quantitative and qualitative analyses are combined in the sociolinguistic profiling of Enron employees by gender and occupation. Current author profiling research is exclusively statistical in nature. However, the findings here demonstrate that when statistical results are augmented by qualitative evidence, the complex relationship between language use and author identity can be more accurately observed.

Abstract:
La présente recherche a pour objet le plagiat littéraire dans les littératures hispaniques d’un point de vue historique, théorique et pratique. Si la perception du plagiat et sa représentation discursive ont été l’objet d’importantes évolutions tout au long de l’Histoire, un certain nombre d’éléments semble récurrent. Un plagiaire est un «faux auteur», mais cette notion de base n’a cessé de s’enrichir à partir de matériaux provenant d’horizons divers, tant épistémologiques que discursifs. Considéré comme une simple infraction morale ou juridique et rattaché par la suite à une diffuse notion d’intertextualité, les études les plus récentes ont recours à la Pragmatique pour essayer d’appréhender la nature ambiguë et polémique de la question. Ce travail adopte une approche pluridisciplinaire du phénomène, réunissant des contributions jusqu’à présent éparpillées entre la Littérature Comparée, le Droit, l’Histoire ou les différentes littératures nationales, mais gardant toujours son centre d’intérêt dans les littératures hispaniques. L’étude est divisée en trois parties. La première concerne l’apparition, la consolidation et l’évolution de la notion jusqu’à la fin du XVIIe siècle. Ensuite, nous exposons les différentes théories sur le plagiat, mises en relation avec les approches disciplinaires adoptées. Enfin, nous offrons une analyse sur les applications pratiques du plagiat : on y découvre leurs différents emplois normatifs, stratégiques, idéologiques ou artistiques. Cette étude propose une perspective d’ensemble ainsi qu’un corpus théorique et littéraire sur ces contenus, en vue d’ouvrir de nouveaux axes de recherche dans le domaine des littératures hispaniques
The object of this study is literary plagiarism in Spanish Literatures, from a historical, theoretical and practical approach. From a historical point of view, plagiarism perception and representation have encountered important evolutions. However, they have preserved common elements. A plagiarist is an ‘untruthful author’, but to this basic notion other materials have been attached from a number of epistemological and disciplinary perspectives. Considered first as a mere moral or legal infringement and subsequently assimilated to a certain concept of intertextuality, recent studies make use of pragmatic approaches to intend an explanation of the ambiguous and polemic nature of the subject. This thesis studies the phenomenon from a multidisciplinary approach, gaining with the contributions collected from Law, Comparative Literature, History or the different national literatures, though maintaining its focus on Spanish Literatures. The study is divided in three parts. The first one deals with the emergence, instauration and evolution of the concept until approximately the end of the XVIIth century. Secondly, different theories are reviewed in relation with the particular disciplinary approaches adopted. Finally, practical applications of plagiarism are considered: normative, strategic, ideological or artistic uses.This study offers a general view of the subject and both a theoretical and a literary corpus, until presently scattered in monographic works, in order to propose some possible research guidelines on plagiarism in the realm of the Spanish Literatures
La presente investigación tiene como objeto el plagio literario en las literaturas hispánicas desde una dimensión histórica, teórica y práctica. Desde el punto de vista histórico, la percepción del plagio y su representación discursiva han sufrido evoluciones importantes, aunque siempre han conservado elementos comunes. Un plagiario es un “falso autor”, pero esta noción de base se ha ido enriqueciendo a partir de materiales provenientes de numerosos horizontes epistemológicos y discursivos. Considerado como una mera infracción moral o jurídica y, posteriormente, asimilado a una difusa noción de intertextualidad, los estudios más recientes se sirven de la pragmática para intentar explicar la naturaleza ambigua y po-lémica de la cuestión. Esta tesis aborda el fenómeno desde una perspectiva multidisciplinar, reaprovechando las contribuciones hasta ahora dispersas en la literatura comparada, el derecho, la historia o las distintas literaturas naciona-les, pero conservando en su centro de interés las literaturas hispánicas. El estudio se divide en tres partes. Una primera que concierne la aparición, consolidación y evolución de la noción hasta fines del siglo XVII. En la segunda parte, se exponen las distintas teorías sobre el plagio, en relación con las perspectivas disciplinarias adoptadas. Por último, se ana-lizan las aplicaciones prácticas del plagio: sus usos normativos, estratégicos, ideológicos o artísticos. El plagiarismo como procedimiento creativo está presente en numerosos movimientos de diferentes épocas, asociado especialmente a la vanguardia y a la Posmodernidad.Este trabajo propone una visión y un corpus teórico y literario de conjunto sobre estos contenidos, hasta ahora dispersos en obras esencialmente monográficas, con la esperanza de que abran nuevas líneas de investigación en el ámbito de la literatura hispánica

Abstract:
This research study examines the forensic application of a selection of stylistic and stylometric techniques in a simulated authorship attribution case involving texts on the social networking site, Facebook. Eight participants each submitted 2,000 words of self-authored text from their personal Facebook messages, and one of them submitted an extra 2,000 words to act as the ‘disputed text’. The texts were analysed in terms of the first 1,000 words received and then at the 2,000-word level to determine what effect text length has on the effectiveness of the chosen style markers (keywords, function words, most frequently occurring words, punctuation, use of digitally mediated communication features and spelling). It was found that despite accurately identifying the author of the disputed text at the 1,000-word level, the results were not entirely conclusive but at the 2,000-word level the results were more promising, with certain style markers being particularly effective.
