Podcast: Because Language – Forensic Linguistics

Helen Fraser recently made an appearance on the Because Language podcast, along with co-authors Diana Eades and Georgina Heydon, to discuss their new publication in the Cambridge Elements in Forensic Linguistics series.

You can listen to the forensic linguistics episode of Because Language here (section starts at 1.05).

This is the blurb about what to expect in the episode:

For decades, forensic linguists have been pushing back on harmful language ideologies, and fighting for better representation for linguistic minorities in the legal domain. We’re talking to legendary linguists Helen Fraser, Georgina Heydon, and Diana Eades, who have written the definitive record of how the discipline has developed in Australia.

Here is a direct link to the Forensic Linguistics in Australia publication, and you can also read a little more about it in one of our previous blog posts. 

We also recommend checking out the other Elements in Forensic Linguistics – there are six in total, including one about authorship analysis by friend of the Hub Tim Grant.

Happy listening!
