Deals with spoken language and sign language. It concentrates on England and Wales but several sections are of international import. The book should be of use to interpreters who need to know about interpreting-related issues within the legal system but also encompasses a wider audience.

Investigates the representation of Jewish characters in 70 of the prolific and wildly popular Mrs Braddon's novels from the mid-19th century to the eve of World War One. It considers how Braddon changes her descriptions across this timeframe and argues that these changes are reflective of the changing social and economic status of the Anglo-Jewish population.

The study looks at the representations of Yorkshire across over thirty of Mary Elizabeth Braddon's novels and analyses her uses of the Yorkshire dialect, her Yorkshire settings and specific towns and cities in the county.

Investigates the representation of Jewish people, characters, places and customs within the periodical Belgravia: A London Magazine, between the years 1866-1876. The magazine contained a range of articles on many different subjects, and the Jewish presence is clear within a diverse field of disciplines. The study considers how this presence changes across the time period and how these changes can relate to broader societal and political movements that were occurring.
