«El español jurídico» is Enrique Alcaraz Varó and Brian Hughes's study of legal language (Ariel, 2002, paperback, 352 pages, in Spanish).
It analyses legal Spanish as a philological object of study: it identifies, explains and illustrates its key terms and concepts from lexical, syntactic and stylistic perspectives, and offers their equivalents in English and French. It is not a law manual, but a practical approach to the language of legal documents.
The text is in Spanish, with terminology also in English and French. It belongs to the Ariel Derecho collection and includes a bibliography (pp. 337-342) and an index.
Aimed at students and professionals of translation and interpreting, it is also useful for anyone who needs to understand the language of Spanish law.
scholar of English, philologist (1940-2008)
