Sažetak
The recent research in the vast field of legal discourse is important and relevant. This book is a valuable contribution to it, because it deals with two crucial areas of study ; in its Part I it examines different genres, emphasising the enormous diversity of legal discourse and pointing to its similarities and differences in different languages. By analysing the differences between modern and historical legal language in its Part II, it clearly demonstrates that a better insight into the historical development of legal language enables a better understanding of the ways in which it is still changing today.
