Giuliana Garzone is Full Professor of English Linguistics and Translation at Università degli Studi di Milano, Italy. Her main field of investigation is specialized discourse in its different domains, which she has explored in a discourse analytical perspective, integrating it whenever necessary with computerized interrogation routines, also in light of her work on the theoretical issues involved in combining Critical Discourse Analysis with Corpus Linguistics (“What can corpus linguistics do for Critical Discourse Analysis?”, 2004, with F. Santulli). She has co-ordinated several research projects and published extensively on legal language (Performatività e linguaggio giuridico: una proposta di classificazione, 1999; Il linguaggio giuridico. Prospettive interdisciplinari, 2008, with F. Santulli), on scientific discourse (Perspectives on ESP and Popularization, 2006), and on business communication. In the latter domain, she has recently devoted specific attention to multimodality and to the analysis of text types and genres embedded in the web-mediated environment (“Genres, multimodality and the World-Wide Web: Theoretical Issues”, 2007), an issue she has also investigated with reference to other types of communication, e.g. political communication (cf. “Public Diplomacy, Multimodality and The World-Wide Web”, with C. Degano). She has also (co-)edited several volumes (most recently, Discourse, Ideology and Specialized Communication, with S. Sarangi, 2007; The Use of English in Institutional and Business Settings, with C. Ilie, 2007; Discourse and Identities in Institutional, Professional and Academic Communication, with J. Archibald, 2010; Discourse, Communication and the Enterprise: Genres and Trends, 2011, with M. Gotti). Her other research interests are in translation and interpreting studies, on which she has also published extensively (among others: Interpreting in the 21st Century, with M. Viezzi, 2002; Esperienze del tradurre, 2005). She is general editor (with A. Cardinaletti e F. Frasnedi) of the book series Lingua, traduzione, didattica.
