Emanuel V. Towfigh, Der Sprache zu Glanz und Wirkung verhelfen [Empowering Language with Clarity and Impact], in: STUD.JUR. 2025, issue 1, pp. 30-31

In issue 1/2025 of the German journal for law students STUD.JUR., Prof. Dr. Emanuel V. Towfigh explores the significance of language in law.

The starting point is a recent study that empirically demonstrates: clearly and elegantly written contracts are not only rated as higher quality by legal professionals, but also positively influence the perception of their authors.

In this context, Prof. Dr. Emanuel V. Towfigh recommends the book Deutsche Stilkunst by Eduard Engel, which provides an in-depth discussion of the fundamentals of good language. The text is aimed at anyone who wishes to sharpen their linguistic skills and harness the power of precise language for their legal arguments.
