Description

Representing Rape is the first feminist linguistic analysis of sexual assault trial language, examining how linguistic descriptions shape legal proceedings when they constitute the primary evidence. Susan Ehrlich argues that language in legal settings does not merely reflect events but actively constructs perceptions of the people and circumstances under investigation, particularly in sexual harassment and acquaintance rape hearings. This groundbreaking work combines linguistic theory with legal analysis to reveal how language use influences the outcomes of sexual assault cases. Based on detailed case study analysis of trials involving accusations of sexual assault in multiple settings, the book demonstrates the critical role language plays in determining how courts understand and judge these sensitive allegations. Essential reading for linguists, legal scholars, and anyone interested in how language intersects with justice and sexual consent.
