Heidelberg group of legal linguistics

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Heidelberg group of legal linguistics (often abbreviated: "Heidelberger Gruppe") is an interdisciplinary research group for the investigation of legal specialist communication . It was founded in 1973 and has significantly shaped legal linguistic research in German-speaking countries.

Origin and goal setting

The Heidelberg group of legal linguistics is one of the oldest legal linguistic research groups that still exist today. It was largely initiated in 1973 by the linguists and lawyers Rainer Wimmer (Trier), Friedrich Müller (Heidelberg), Dietrich Busse (Düsseldorf) and Ralph Christensen (Mannheim) and has met around four times a year in the Heidelberg area since then -Mannheim. The group is not a registered association. Since it was founded, the Heidelberg Group has shaped legal linguistic research in German-speaking countries and produced important basic works on language and law research. The group has been coordinated by the legal linguist Friedemann Vogel (Siegen) since 2014.

The aim of the Heidelberg Group is to promote interdisciplinary research into the language and mediality of law.
