“…Thus, a speech act-analysis would be the first step in the analysis of the speaker's intention. To increase precision, it should be coupled with an ethnographic approach (Isani, 2014). A semantic propositions analysis (von Polenz, 2008) would provide answers to the question ''What has been said?''…”

This article intends to define sensorial discourses, to discuss the way they should be analyzed by stressing the importance of corpora. Putting these thoughts into the context of the digital revolution, it will show how corpora should evolve in the digital humanities. The association of digital and sensorial discourses needs to be clarified and this paper proposes a way to find new approaches to better analyze them.

“…A third expression, "la didactique des langues et cultures spécialisées" (Isani 2011), places greater emphasis on the cultural dimension. Similarly, the term ESP didactics (la didactique de l'anglais de spécialité) has also been used extensively in French doctoral theses and research papers (Brouat 1994(Brouat , 1997Claisse 1995;Thily 1996;Rézeau 2001;Zumbihl 2004;Isani 2006Isani , 2014Coquilhat 2008).…”

“…In spite of the relatively late formal recognition of the cultural dimension of ESP, teachers had long integrated a more cultural angle into their ESP classroom practices through adoption of the situated approach it foregrounds and by breaking down the spatio-temporal confines of the classroom through the introduction of pedagogic supports such as fictional and documentary films, television series, video games, site visits, and internships based on an ethnographic approach of immersion and O&A (Isani 2014). …”

Although the field of ESP studies is, comparatively speaking, a relatively new area of academic enquiry, it has nevertheless well over half a century of existence and evolution to its name. Present in the most far-flung reaches of the world today, ESP is undoubtedly one of the most cross-cultural of disciplines and as such subject to constant processes of adaptation and reinvention, at times calling into question the epistemological core of the discipline itself. In a two-step approach, this study first presents a theoretical overview of the main epistemological trends in ESP studies today. Having established the general theoretical framework, the paper focuses on practitioner-orientated concerns in relation to implementing a wide-angled socio-cultural approach for university level English for Legal Purposes (ELP). In this dual perspective, it looks at the potential offered by the use of specialised fictional narrative in the form of popular television series or fiction à substrat professionnel (FASP).
