Recensioner i media

Key Terms in Stylistics is a substantial, timely and much-needed contribution to the rapidly developing field of Stylistics. Charting the development of Stylistics from its inception to the present day, and covering the major themes, terms and concepts, this book is the key reference guide to modern Stylistics. One of the major accomplishments of the book is the way its authors manage to reign in the many diverse strands in contemporary stylistic analysis, from Feminist Stylistics to Cognitive Poetics, from Critical Stylistics to the Empirical Study of Literature, thereby creating a comprehensive and coherent overview of the present-day field. With full entries on the key terms and the major work in the area, this book is essential reading for anyone who wishes (or needs) to acquaint themselves with the character and practice of modern Stylistics.
