Overview

"Both an introduction and workbook in stylistics, this book approaches the subject area of stylistics by providing students with an understanding of the main principles involved. Looking at a variety of topics, such as ""recorded speech"" and ""narrative structures"", students are gradually introduced to the principles of linguistic analysis of texts and encouraged from the outset to do textual analysis themselves. A diversity of English texts are offered for commentary and analysis."

Jean Jacques Weber It is very often informative, not assuming a great deal of prior knowledge and yet not patronising either. Very valuable for developing skills for other parts of the course. - Dr C Thijs, University College Dublin
