Biography
Annabelle is Associate Professor of Linguistics, and Director of Research Training for the Department of Linguistics. Her research interests include the study of language in politics, media, healthcare and literature. In 2019 she published a War and its Ideologies: A Social-Semiotic Theory and Description, a book based on 15 years on research into how language legitimates some forms of violence while stigmatizing others. Annabelle is interested in contributing to a better public understanding about the nature and power of language. She has been interviewed on commercial and public radio, and has contributed a number of articles to The Conversation.
Annabelle combines discourse analysis with corpus methods. She is an affiliate of the Sydney Corpus Lab.
She is a member of Communicators Declare, an organisation of communications, PR and marketing professionals who have declared they will not work for organisations that support continued use of polluting fossil fuels.

Research student supervision
